Welcome to this podcast where we're gonna discuss about reactions such as oh This is weird.
He she they are crazy referring to the domain quotation marks of Spirituality and maybe you are hearing this word right now and you're like whoa,
Whoa.
This is not for me This is not something that interests me,
But you know what you can be surprised.
So maybe Yeah,
I don't know let the ears do this thing and let the curiosity lead you and See if there is not something interesting there This podcast is presented by life exploitress yoga teacher in Paris and internationally online guiding gentle and meditative sessions So maybe you observe this reaction In yourself,
Or maybe you observe them when you were reading something on hearing something and The reaction we are talking about in this podcast particularly is about the use of specific words so in the quotation mark domain of spirituality and of the quotation marks We found a specific vocabulary such as energy frequency consciousness collective consciousness nirvana and Maybe even by hearing them right now You feel some reaction in yourself or maybe it can be really subtle or maybe an expression in your face or maybe a weird Coolness coolness about it.
I don't know whatever It is That is quite interesting actually because when we think about the concept of the idea of society and the different specialties that exist within a society such as mathematics economics Whatever science arts music any of every each specialities has their own codes has their own vocabulary and own use of symbols and The weird thing when I say weird,
It's not in a negative thing.
It's like the interesting thing is when it is the domain of spirituality Then it is seen as Weird it is seen as something Strange and That is quite interesting when you see that It's a domain like any other and like any other domain it is using its own vocabulary with its own use of symbols methods techniques approaches perspectives and So what is interesting here to observe is how much can we make something?
Familiar and then judge something unfamiliar and so weird or crazy and when we take a step back and Instead of pursuing what is unfamiliar and Trying to identify what is not for us what is unfamiliar and Try to look at what we actually already consider as normal or familiar when we do that we realize that what we consider that familiar and familiar are really close and really similar actually and as we can see for the example of the words and the use of specific words specific vocabulary we can actually See concretely in your experience if you at least use these concepts of Specialties and politics economics and whatever you can see that Are you are you when you are looking at I don't know.
Let's see you are walking You're walking down the street and there is some more some sounds of cars And you are walking you feel the ground under your feet.
It is kinda cool cold And you walk you walk you feel the breath the sorry the the air and And then you see a group like not so far away But like on the other street parallel to your street you see a group of people and they are talking a weird language and They seem to comprehend themselves between themselves and so you are really intrigued and you decide to cross The streets and so to join them to hear about what they are talking about what is this weird language and actually you realize that there are mathematicians using us the the vocabulary that they use and That they learn and that they therefore are using between themselves But because we have normalized this and we say that this is normal There is this specialty that all everyone knows politics science science Economics whatever And we think that this is normal but then when we hear something unfamiliar because we are not familiar with the we hear something unfamiliar because We don't even recognize I think the domain of spirituality And because we don't see it as a domain it's something weird,
But if you see it as a domain and Realize that it just has its own vocabulary And we are going here to the second part of this podcast the last point which is There are every speciality they are using different type of vocabulary different Using the symbols in a certain way like when you're looking at music are you judging music as something as sectarian or Do you do you use sarcasm sarcasm when you see musician routing uh Who are read who wrote sorry Who wrote with a little paper?
Different notes with a strange symbols and they say that this is music.
This is a translation of music This is a partition.
Are you using sarcasm and say this is weird.
They are sect no or if you do maybe in this if we take this approach and this perspective then in this case Every speciality is is kind of sect if you are using sarcasm or sect if you identify something weird and familiar or sect as having its own vocabulary and own references and own way to talk And this is I think can be really extrapolated to any type of thinking about what we fear what we judge as familiar and familiar In any kind of subject society subject and and there is another point so to it which is To consider that all those words and all those symbols Are not the thing in themselves there are pointers Uh only pointers they do not Represent the thing in itself they just point towards it so there is not so much seriousness about the vocabulary and um used And in this way,
Maybe you will hear a certain vocabulary that is unfamiliar to you but we with having this perspective of wait,
This is not about the the word this is about what the world is pointing to and in this case,
Maybe you will discover another dimension of understanding of discovery and and exploration On that note,
I hope that was really interesting for you And if it was not it's okay It was a pleasure to share this thought with you And I wish you a really lovely evening a lovely day And see you soon life exploratrice
