Words

What are words?

We see the world through our language - we take the word for the thing. What happens when we stop using words?

What is a cat? It is a furry animal... what is an animal? It is a creature that isn't a human. What is a creature? It is a being, a body, that is alive.

What is alive?

Alive is.... being alive... being aware... existing...

What is beingness? What is it that is the same in "me", in "you"? Beingness. The bodies are different, but what animates the bodies? Beingness, livingness, intelligence-energy... what are these? More concepts?

Do you really need a word to describe what you are? Can any word ever really describe what you are?
