A Deeper consideration on meditation



We mostly live in a world of narrative, concepts, and symbols. We became acculturated to living this way through sociolinguistic conditioning that began in childhood. We often forget this as we age and we get distracted by the social world. If we do not take time to recharge and refresh ourselves, we lose our connection to the world. This disconnect can cause frustration or delight.


As an example, we can take two bottle caps and create a story about each and bring children to greater and greater excitement by narrating an epic battle between good and evil. And, in a way, those concepts and symbols have meaning and that meaning influences our audience. And these are still just two bottlecaps in what Alfred Korzybski called "the unspeakable world" or the world of objects, feelings, and happenings. Only we ascribed narratives and abstractions to the bottlecaps and convinced our audience to get socioemotionally involved in our abstractions and emotions.


Meditation helps us move beyond the world of symbols and concepts i.e. abstractions and into the "unspeakable world". A relationship with the unspeakable world begins with meditation.
