Consider if the word god is nonexistent from of our verbiage, would still god be existent? What would be the expression for god? How would we relate to the supreme incorporeal power existent which is considered to be present since eternity? I do not intend to challenge the belief or faith of people or existence of god but would like to hold an enquiry on the subject in the sense how we relate to words. Word such as god has a significant influence on life of people; all the ideas, sense, emotions, pictures related with the word rather then solely depending on individuality of the being also depends on the culture, environment and most importantly the language or the choice of words which a person makes in his life and how he relates to it. In day to day life this comes as a very automatic phenomenon to us; we have created meanings to words and given them some sense which has rather been generated with our past experiences and situations and tracing its origin it rather comes from nothing, life has become dependent on words and rather gets influenced by it. Humans are thus a meaning making machine, our present and future are influenced with what we make up as meaning of the present situation, incidence or environment and how we then relate to the external environment. Our parameters of thoughts and life are rather dependent on words, the language we use.
Now consider if we do not have the power of language, imagine the way we would think or communicate? How would the experience of life be like? How different a life of a human being would be from a normal living creature on earth? What would the world occur as to us? Thus in an essence in order to change the experience of life one thing which we can do is examine the language and words which we are using and the manner in which we relate with the situation. Rather language is something which contains and can limit the existence and expressions of even supreme beings such as god.
Even when it comes to social existence language is used in form referred as communication. Language can be considered as software governing the human interface by which it performs in the world and a priori it can be seen that as in computing efficient software’s produce better results similarly being’s endowed with better grasp and knowledge of language perform better in life. Language is the space where many explained and unexplained phenomenon exists. It is the place for creativity, art, science, theology, metaphysics and all other fields which have engaged the human mind for centuries. In fact the word mind itself is the manifestation of language. I had used the word god initially just to bring forth that how a word god can bring in so much of faith and belief in human beings and whereas on the other hand some people might even doubt its existence. I would state that both the opinions are valid but would like to draw the attention to the point that how we end up relating strongly with words and rather how they start appearing as reality to us. In day to day life we engage ourselves with goals and desires and in turn we end up relating to them in a manner that starts commanding or rather influencing our life. The context of life ends up becoming the context for goals and achievements. Thus we really need to distinguish between life and what we are creating in our life using language, both the things are distinct.
