@Peter Are you also a practitioner of “Bohm dialogue”? Would this explain the style of expression you have been using here on Kinfonet?
A formal arrangement will only get in the way of careful looking, reading, listening, with clarity of mind.
I think formal or informal doesn’t matter here. Because, the formal language misleads one from ‘seeing’ or ‘expressing’ what they ‘see’. Let him be as he is. Only then one can see the whole. To adhere to formal language, it prescribes some standards - so we can’t see ‘as it is’.
Let all have conversations in their own way. But one should be willing to ‘listen’.
Am I right?
Yes - but it would facilitate understanding/communication if both interlocutors revealed any particular (special) methods of expression that they are using.
If we impose methods - it will be a conditioned conversation. We had seen many K’s discussions. We just have to ‘listen’ the flow. If one couldn’t understand the flow, the floor is open. He can express why he couldn’t. This how discussions go on.
A ‘method’ is a ‘limitation’.
and/or a tool? …
When we want to see as a ‘whole’, these ‘methods’, ‘motivations’, ‘standards’,etc… makes it see only ‘partial’. So, it misleads the purpose of our discussion. Because of this, K doesn’t prescribe any method or such.
Hi everyone. Please join this discussion, if you wish to.
Why “listen”? That’s what’s called “scare quotes”
I know what you mean. You meant to emphasize the word, but FYI, to do that you don’t use quotes - you use italics or bold type.
Thank you
Sure I will.
