If I were to say to you "there is a fox sitting in my garden having fun with the morning sun", you would most most likely know what I propose by the word 'fox'.
So this article is mainly about language, and how our inherited language shapes the style we reflect on and how we relate to our world. In turn, the style we reflect on and what we ride shapes our language. This is without doubt one of the purposes why the historical which strategy of a word can amendment through the years (trace), and why new words are now and again compulsory.
The only reason I am able to write this blog, and in turn want that you can realise what I propose, is through a constantly understood shared language where words have respectable meanings associated with them. In this case it's the English language.
Technically, you might say that it does have an usual agreed upon which implies. Why? Because we can go to an English language dictionary and look-up the word God and see what this word capacity in our language on essentially the most up-to-date time.
We might also add different key life-words to this meditation process; words such as love, health, wealth, Christ, Mohammed, Buddha, wisdom, compassion and so forth. Perhaps these words have a choice of which implies, as words commonly do. For instance, the word 'the' has over a dozen option meanings in English, dependent on context. And in all chance their which implies for us will amendment through our lives as we mature and ride more of dwelling.
Is your definition (or definitions) of the word "God" one you were given by your schooling, one depending on a spiritual and cultural tradition, one your peer nearby promotes or one you invented yourself when you were very young? Or a ramification of mixture of these strategies?
However, if I were to say to you that "God advisable me this morning". Then we have a entirely option state of affairs. Would you tremendously know what I meant by the word 'God'?
I would propose that in case you periodically contemplated what the word "God" capacity to you, and adopted up on that contemplation, then your news and ride of what this word capacity to you is maybe enriched through this contemplative process.
Reflections on a Word.
If we take identify of the statement that words construction the style that we reflect on and how words can affect our ride of our world, then maybe a ramification of words deserve a more desirable inspection.
And in time, as your news deepens through the contemplative process, then maybe you is maybe blessed with reviews where you are literally 'misplaced for words'; for words and the principles they characterize can in no way entirely capture our wealthy dwelling human ride of life.
Is God Just a three Letter Word?
In the English language a minimum of, God is a three letter word. The actual question I would love to ask is, does it have an usual agreed upon which implies?
