Reality Check: Is What We See The Extent of Reality?

in philosophy •  8 years ago 

I agree with Terence McKenna when he says "there is a transcendental dimension beyond language... it's just hard as hell to talk about"
Even if we could imagine what reality is we wouldn't be able to talk about it because it would be far beyond what language can explain!

I second that agree, vis-à-vis McKenna's quote, with one exception - instead of "it's just hard as hell to talk about", I prefer "it's unspeakable (unapproachable through words)".

Neither thoughts nor words can touch/ capture the full magnitude of reality, IMO.
