Language and Mythos (response to rockybr420)

[easilywow]

At about 3 min in your video, you mention that it is logical that women would have been teaching verbal language and that it would be unlikely that the men would be teaching verbal language due to the necessity of silence in hunting. Almost all of the early cave drawings were of animals, supposedly a simulation of the experience of hunting. Could it be then, that the development of symbolic and written language was fostered primarily by men while verbal language was fostered by women?

This certainly seems plausible.

if said "ur stupid" u would seek knowledge, hopefully in a calm state....if i told u that ur linguistic commonly used vocab/lingo is lacking solidity to ur inner thought, hopefuly u'd give thought to how to use the gift of verbal language. Understand that unlive the Navee in "Avatar" we canNOT unify/share/exchange/synchroni­ze our DNA/data/knowledge wih one another(s)in such colorful mannar. Do u see how linguistics stunt the concious awarness and thus limiting creativity.

"All most of you kids are doing is emulating History"

Just a small correction.

They are doing History - The New History of the Internet.

They develop and maintain the Internet - our future.

They write scripts that define people's tastes, demands, and behavior in order to keep developing the Internet, fill it in. When humanity die, there will be the Internet that survives the biological life.

These kids will be gods for the Internet.

Thus, not emulating but creating History.

Some words in other languages sound like animal calls. This points to man actually reflecting what we've learned from nature and the relationship between creatures. The more stratified and further away from the actual world we've become the more objectified the languages are.

Thanks.

Can't agree, but appreciate your answer,

@mistafied187, hey, I believe too. I don't know your background or past but, my best wishes for you and everyone here.

Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth. ~ Buddha

This is what I hope for and, I think, share with you. Be well!

[thepathlesspath]

Eek, well, I'm not saying I understand God... I don't think that's the point of any of our channels and if we think it is, we're kidding ourselves. If anything it's to shatter what we are comfortable with and try to see if there is anything beyond our power play/egoic creations or "mental fortresses." What are your thoughts on this?

[thepathlesspath]

It's my hope we can start to be a light to ourselves in our journeys. Cults dissipate when we realize our self-worth, which does not need to be built up in mental fortresses, but is naturally an outpouring of who we really are. I don't know about you, but I hope to help encourage that mindfulness, through this network and in my own life.

[thepathlesspath]

Not quite sure what you mean by denying one experience and validating another---There are many ways of experiencing the divine it seems, and I would go so far as to say experience or believing in God is one facet of the divine journey, just as much as satori or kensho. I don't believe it is settling down and forming one ideology, but rather letting out assumptions melt away as we approach the divine. No idols, no ideals. Spiritual paths demand a LOT b/c they ask us to transcend our comforts.

[thepathlesspath]

I'm not sure what happened as far as music or whatever else is concerned. How are they deceiving ideas? This video to me seems like an intellectual talk.

[thepathlesspath]

@mistafied187, in my understanding, Neptune as the "trident" is describing the desire for spiritual transcendence. It is a symbol of the spiritual, psychic, but also deception. So it's a tricky road. We can deceive ourselves. We can get trapped in ego and power and repeat the same old cycles, but there is also the potential for transformation. Shifts in consciousness are humbling and inspiring, & it's my hope we can come to that not on this network alone, but through our lives as a whole.

[thepathlesspath]

I think, coming in late to this conflict, I am not sure what you mean by assuming about you. But I don't believe that a computer will bring salvation, or a network, or collaboration. I believe any potential for transformation or change is in our own hearts. Salvation isn't "out there" with new toys.

I'd like to know, though, what you mean by paying attention to lessons of the past? If you could clarify?

[prhughes0]

@m187:Please be more specific about your allegations of hypocrisy. I don't see anything here implying that I either have or have not any particular virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles. If you do, please be specific.

[prhughes0]

I would be happy to review your proof.

[thepathlesspath]

Are you implying that this "evolution of meaning," is incomparable to "Omega" or "God" which is not always shifting/changing?

On patriarchy:

The one-male-many-female arrangement is older than the hills. It falls out of long gestation, nursing and maturation times for humans. Male's resistance to cuckolding and theft (by left-out majority) leads to patriarchal control (of wives and kids).

The more wives, the more (left-out) enemies, thus the need for allies. The more allies, the more hierarchical the patriarchy: chief, count, king, emperor. The bigger the alliances, the bigger the enemy: must conquer the world.

... more on Patriarchy:

The Hebrew Bible is a fatherhood and patriarchy manifesto.

Motherhood is real, obvious and lifelong.

Fatherhood (pre-DNA-test) is imaginary, questionable and quick.

Judaism invents fatherhood in support of peace (within an alliance, i.e. jews), solidarity against aliens (thru religion) and a hierarchical priesthood. The only path to satisfying the left-out majority in a one-man-many-wives society is conquest (of aliens).

Once the world is conquered, the game must change.

On language:

Baby cries are the obvious origin of interpersonal meaning attached to utterance. What else? Danger cries, threat or comfort sounds?

Mother and baby spontaneously communicate audibly; hunters may (gestures usually serve).

"meanings can always be evolving"

That holds a lot of truth. Some words tend to change with the times in the world.
