Essentia Foundation

Fredric Nord argues that knowing reality through language is fundamentally and inescapably a misunderstanding of reality. We misunderstand what language actually does and, thereby, misunderstand what life is. The key to understanding life is, he argues, a reframing of language and representation. This should end the paradigm of materialism and facilitate transcendence as a priori.

Describing language with more language, there is no end to this :) 🙏

Yes, and “obviously” yes…. But not so obvious to many/most? When the obvious reaches critical mass, then we “begin” (a new and improved chapter)

Especially at the moment, we are seeing a lot of arguments and conflict essentially boiling down to what language is being used. For me, when asked to explain reality, all I can say is “There it is”

i understand one thing, money talks. If it would't, there i would be no youtube. Are we ever going to do something real, other than to repeat over and over the same thing - that there is nothing to talk about? Don't get me wrong, i love what you are doing. But - bring into it, what really does something positive, don't just talk around it. Stop feeding the egos of the seekers, tell them how to stop seeking.

Jacque Fresco reached or brought new language as thought experience. In my humble opinion 🎉

You know what the greatest problem in this world is, its delusion, your greatest enemy is the automatic mode of unaware sense making and living thereby in a deluded self.

You could at least give Saussure and Peirce some credit. Half of your text discusses well-known theories, yet you don't attribute them properly.
