Major Turning Points in the Development
of the Human Race

Picture a graph up on the wall of a very large room - in fact the room is a mile long - so the graph is a mile wide too. Over to the right end of the graph something happens sixteen inches from the right edge of the graph.

That would be a graph of human history since we came down out of trees. In the last tiny fraction of all that time, we have had language that we can see and not just hear.

The significance of being able to see language and not just hear it is that humans are primates, and to primates, vision is the dominant sense - unlike for example canines and felines to whom smell is the dominant sense.

In the last sixteen inches of the mile suddenly we humans are able not merely to pass signals by grunts and such, we are able to put symbols down on papyrus or another medium (e.g. television, the Internet, etc.) which conveys the same information as the grunts.

When language, a pivotally important tool in the history of our development, suddenly moves into the visual sphere, because we are primates the importance of the tool is enormously escalated.

In the long throw of time, this has just happened.

When one casts around for a reason why a species as smart as us is still living on average such self-tormented lives and spends so much time preparing to kill each other on ever-increasing scale and then actually doing it, it is not being unscientific to put down on the possible explanations list the fact that seeable language has historically occurred one eyeblink ago.

What could seeable language have done to drive us as a race so apparently crazy as we might appear to hypothetically sane visitors from space?

For one thing it might have greatly increased our tendency to overload ourselves with inner dialog that goes off in all directions with branching questions, thoughts, and feelings, and never reaches closure on any of these.

For another thing it might have made us more willing - even eager - to be able to put ourselves under some dogma that could relieve us of the stress of having to make our own decisions on the most profound matters such as the meaning and purpose of life.

During the past few thousand years as we have been reeling under the sudden onslaught of seeable language and its fallouts, there have been a very small number of humans who have advised us to change the way we use our minds. This has been a fraction of 1% of the population, folks who seem to smile a lot, and appear unflappable by the many provocations that drive the rest of us up the wall. These seeming Higher Beings among us have all advised us to clear out the babble of voices from our minds whereby we would eventually reach a state such as they are in, able to perceive everything with clarity and therefore reach wise decisions.

Until now, these folks advised us in language that seemed to us to be religious, metaphorical, magical, or just plain hard to understand. It looked as if this was just another dogma that we had to put our faith in.

What has changed now in the Seeable Language Revolution and the Counter-Revolution Of How To Deal With It, is this new approach embodied in a first of many books. The idea: to talk about why we need to change our mental process in a new and sharply clear way - no hocus-pocus sounding stuff. And to provide the tools to do the clearout - also in the same sharply clear language.

Since language (seeable language) is itself the culprit which got us here (that is not proven, just our hypothesis based on the mile-wide graph), why wouldn't language (a new way of describing the inner states) be the way out of the dilemma also?
