Description
Arthur Haines and I continue our discussion of the NeoAboriginal Lifeway. In this episode, Arthur shows us how the English language restricts our worldview, and why we should consider learning an indigenous language to cultivate the feral mindset. We discuss: * The wild experience vs. the civilized experience * The language of imperialism * How Arthur became interested in learning an indigenous language * Language shapes how we think * Loss of language diversity * The narrow aperture of the English language * English is a language of war * Indigenous languages integrate verbs into the landscape * Freedom of mind * Religion and language * Language of a fluid worldview * Experiencing life as verbs and not as nouns * "Spending time" * Future of the Passamaquoddy language * How Arthur integrates Passamaquoddy into his lifestyle * Exploring languages indigenous to your area * Indigenous language reveals water as medicine
