Language is not merely a device for communicating
ideas about the world, but rather a tool for bringing the world into existence in
the first place. Reality is not simply ‘experienced’ or ‘reflected’ in language
but is actually produced by language. – Terence McKenna.
Our world is set in a contextual reference and this
is a way of not only exploring ‘reality’ it is also a way of trapping us in a hypnotic
state within a ‘reality’.
Music expresses this brilliantly where the context
of the music will set the parameters of what is possible with the music such as
what sounds correct in classical and what then sounds possible in blues and
Jazz and so on. What is impossible in one form of music is possible in another
by the change of the parameters of the context. In certain forms of music every
note is possible whereas in other forms they would sound wrong.
This is true with ‘reality’, change the context then
things become acceptable and also not only possible but the norm; war for
instance makes death and destruction the norm which they is not in peace.
Listen to the speeches of leaders leading up to war
and see how language changes the context that people are living in preparing
them for a different reality.
If you think this is not the thing that is consistently
happening by the powers that be think again listen very carefully to the news
and think about what they are telling you and ask yourself two questions; Why
this and why now?
Now I have set the mood now here is how to change
this go and listen to the great shape shifters of consciousness in music, Bob
Marley and John Lennon. Music has REAL power let us use it.
