What does "begs of all and any incredulities" mean?
Just to be fair, and remind ourselves and anyone reading along, you cite my reply to what you said:
To define God/Tao/Brahman is to lose God/Tao/Brahman in the definition. There is no evidence of something best not defined.
Afterwards, I offered:
"
Jabberwocky.
(no offense, but that begs of all and any incredulities...and smacks of self-imposed censorship and willful ignorance to boot)
Just saying
Perhaps I misunderstood your purposed meaning, (most of which I confess seemed like some nonsensical jabberwocky to me), but as I took it to convey was that any attempts in defining a god or spiritual entity is to effectually negate that definition. It reminds me of he selling line from The Matrix
No one tell you what the Matrix is
Its an absurdly proposed conundrum. If if I try to explain it, youll therefore never come to understand what it is.
Forgive my saying so, but thats philosophical mumbo-jumbo gobbledygook.
It is.
Ie, No one can understand it, therefore, it is
Jabberwocky.
On top of that, to assert that anyone claims to understand and seeks to define what it is, either doesnt know what theyre talking about or is and obvious liar/fool
seems to me most akin to, as I offered self-imposed censorship and willful ignorance.
I still see it that way
Self-imposed censorship when we use langauge is precisely what I'm talking about, and willful ignorance too. When we point at a tree and say, "Look, a tree," in what are we investing belief?
?
Maybe Im lost yet again. Generally speaking, any definition of a thing, or a concept, provides just a common reference from which most agree upon as meeting that definition. Just as a rose is a rose, a tree is pretty much a tree for most folks
there is little ambiguity or lacking understanding in pointing to a tree for what it is.
In something real encapsulated by the word "tree," or in the power of the word "tree" to encapsulate something real? Is it something real we learn to see in kindergarten, or is it "tree"?
Youll forgive me if I avoid the path of rationale that questions reality as real, or only subject to self-perception/illusion.
Now let's look at the words "four times four." Is it something real we learn to see?
Well, if I can present you with sixteen beans set before you in four groups of four, then group them all together as one, then
yes
You can call that presentation of assembled beans a definition of the mathematical equation of 4 times 4 or not as you please I suppose, but its sum of its parts remain the same, whatever or however you wish to define them in words.
[PS. Apologies for tardy reply, but as you know
priorities and such typically rule the day, as in a measured 24hr period, or one revolution of our planet relative to a singled point, or, well, you know, however you understand a day to be defined :]
