Summary

This quote suggests that the connection between our thoughts and reality lies in the structure of language. Similar to how grammar provides a framework for organizing and understanding language, it can also shape our perceptions and perspectives of the world. Language acts as a medium through which our thoughts are expressed and shaped, influencing our understanding of reality. Therefore, this quote emphasizes the importance of linguistic structures and how they contribute to the harmony or alignment between our thoughts and the way we perceive and interact with the world around us.

I can sometimes sit for two hours in a room with almost no thought. Just complete stillness. Sometimes when I go for walks, there's also complete stillness; there's no mental labeling of sense perceptions. There's simply a sense of awe or wonder or openness, and that's beautiful.
