I don't mean to presume to comprehend the full ins and outs of this conversation however something strikes me about communication in general which I would like to share and that is the fact that we have a view of the world. In Theun Mares books the preferred method of an aspiring man knowledge is to have no view in particular so I wonder what others on this forum feel about this. Again in Theuns books (my point of reference) Theun talks a great deal about how even Warriors make the mistake of confirming and strengthening their view of the world while claiming to be trying to shake it off.
In my experience I have noticed the way I used to talk to people from my view of the world and if they did not understand it always seemed as though I was right and they were wrong and in daily life this happens all the time and so i feel having a different view of the world is perhaps one of the most important subjects for apprentices to the warriors path.
Having a different view of the world, in my view, is like having slightly different rules to the same game. One thing I have struggled with is the fact that a view of the world is just a view and therefore can be no more or less valid than any other.
