You just succeeded putting into words that which (apparently) can't be put into words.

All language is an abstraction so there will always be a gap between a word and the thing it describes
No word can truly describe something because a thing and its word are two entirely separate entities

Apart that is from one thing and that thing is a word because a word is simultaneously both the thing and the word
But all other things are non words as obviously words describing non words is not the same as word describing word

Behind the named world of things is the nameless no thing from which they are sourced.

The map is not the territory. There is no you in the word you.

The informing principle is thus empty.

Putting a name to a nameless thing is naming it.

Then don't name the nameless things?

Who or what would be doing this naming of IT? Who or what is this IT that is being named?

Who or what is a nameless thing?

Who or what is naming ? ...the point of this exercise is that there is no actual name in the word name. Just as there is no tree in the word tree, or human in the word human etc...words are empty to the core.

However, words are very useful as they communicate to themselves only within a conscious observer, out of which appears a phantom writer and reader communicating with itself...aka the ONE who KNOWS each and every word as and when it arises.

Who or what is that ONE that KNOWS... but a word ALSO? ....AM I a word? if yes, then I am EveryTHING and (not one single thing)

Words only inform the illusory RELATIVE nature of the Absolute KNOWER. Relative knowledge of the ABSOLUTE is absurd.

SteveKlinko did the naming.
SteveKlinko is the name of the nameless thing.

That's why we have names.

Hey, Nameless, how was your day?
My day was great, Nameless.
Nameless, have you heard that Nameless had a new grandchild? They named it Nameless.

The point being made is that although there appears to be a 'living something' as being the named thing, in reality there is no thing living in the 'named thing'. A 'named thing' can never tell itself it is alive or dead because words are empty. . concepts are neither alive or dead, they are just known imagined appearances in the form of concepts within pure awareness. Awareness that has no known begining nor ending.

The belief there is an actual living thing in the named no thing, is what gives the illusory continuity to an illusory autonomous self which is only ever imagined and known by Awareness that has no known beginning nor end. A named thing is a story No One ever wrote, and yet is read by Everyone as Awareness is Everything and not one single thing.

It's very subtle, the mind identified with it's own imagined story will never see the emptiness in which it's story is arising and known instantly for what it is and is not upon recognition or realisation.

Why do you insisting on giving labels to 'no things' ?

No. I am pointing out what happened.

You put Oneness into the word "Oneness". Did you not?
You put Redness into the word "Redness". Did you not?

You did what you said cannot be done. TWICE!

That's called a Performative contradiction.

For the same reason a parent sticks a label on it's newborn child. It's useful in the sense of gaining knowledge and making sense of the world in which we live and have our being. The fact that there is no person there before the label was planted nor is there any person there in the label either .. except as believed, aka imagined to be there by the believing brain. Is all irrelevant.
Because without a name who the heck AM I? or what the heck is any thing at all?
Without the projection screen of the mentally constructed narrative that is I and my story...which is totally empty of any literal substance or identity except as a belief created by the same emptiness that is the mind that created it ...where and what Am I and where do I happen?

You is just another word for I ...and we all say I

You the you that you have been conditioned to believe by what another has passed onto you in the form of your name, aka knowledge that you have then taken on as your own personal I and story... can believe what ever you like about yourself.

That's what this one known as dontaskme does. You there do not have to agree with or accept anything I am saying, I am only speaking from my own personal direct experience, which feels right and true to this one here. There is no need to feel as though this discussion is somekind of ( I know better than you competition, where one tries to outwit the other ) it's just a sharing of personal direct experiences. Sometimes there is a total understanding and recognition of what the other person is talking about or what is being pointed to - but then sometimes there isn't. That's just the way it is.

If you are going to engage in communication with me, then you are going to have at least some proper understanding of the what and who the word ''YOU'' actually is and is not.

You are of course just playing word games because as a disrupter that's what you do. You can only say what you say by throwing out all the context that has gone on for a hundred years when we talk about something like Redness. You are stuck in the intellectual sludge of your disruptive purpose so you must play word games. You have nothing else to offer. What I am trying to bring home is that merely saying Redness or Oneness does not Explain Redness or Oneness. There are no Explanatory words that you can attach to the word Redness or Oneness. Redness or Oneness, at this point in time, can only be Experienced.

At no point were you talking about "explanations" though. You were not talking about Explanation. You were talking about the (in?)ability to put Oneness and Redness into words.

Can "Oneness" and "Redness" be put into words or not? This is not a word-play - this is a yes/no question.

You are a Disrupter because you know I started from the premise that, and this is quoted from my post just one page back:
"Yes, Oneness cannot be put into words in the same way that Redness cannot be put into words".

So why would you ask such a question except that you are trying to Disrupt, Divert, and Obfuscate the conversation? Do you have anything to say about Oneness, Redness, or Consciousness?

Oneness is completely explained using just the one word, 'Oneness'.
