If you want to go beyond, quit thinking in words -- by the legendary philosopher, Ujjwal Anand

Now when you describe a concept into words, you end up missing some details that you either don't know how to describe or they just cannot be described. They just cannot be translated.

You end up describing something which is not what you initially wanted to describe. Language is such a reductive enterprise. Therefore, if you truly want to understand a concept, an abstract concept such as trust, truth, friendship, love, you would have to go beyond the boundaries of language. You might, you might also have to abandon language because the moment you describe anything it is no longer what it is that you want it to describe.

Sincerely yours,

Ujjwal Anand
