Vlog 308 Healing - YouTube
Excellent video. In fact, though, I long ago discerned that the current Western society suffers from a loss of the real world. The reason I seem to go on about this so much (in fact my whole video channel is dedicated to this observation) was because when I migrated from Africa to the present situation, the difference was so stark. It really was like having to learn a different language after adopting a totally different world view and cosmology. You could no longer refer to cause and effect, or really anything that you alleged was outside of your own head. Everything had to be referred back to only what was in your head. (True philosophy and true psychology say that it is always both of these in fact, that influence experience -- but what I encountered was totally one-sided.) Contemporary Western society has lost the real world almost entirely. It is a shocking, really shocking thing to come to realize this. Speak to somebody from Japan, and they still have the real world and are able to refer to it in the company of others and make themselves understood. But you simply cannot do that with any guarantee here, anymore. The whole of language has become narcified.
