There must be places inner dialogue can take us that language cannot. In sociology classes I’ve taken, we’ve discussed language as the key to consciousness. But what if inner dialogue and development of intuition are the paths peace?
I worry that in developing an inner dialogue over outward expressions, I will prevent myself from ever making contact with others again. After all, how can you communicate what you have learned to understand without words? Is this a problem? Is “inner peace” the same as reducing oneself to an animalistic state? If so, is this enlightenment or devolution?
If anyone has book recommendations for this topic, please share!
