Zero is the original that all things copy.
One is the imitation, the duplication, the mirror image, the reflection.
All else and everything else are based on 0 and 1. All else we have come to know as Creation, is a variation of imitation, thus, is itself, an imitation. Early humans imitated the sounds and movements of their natural environment and then later, they eventually began to rely more exclusively on imitating each other. This is a good process as long as humans being imitated have maintained a true connection to the original. This can only be achieved by maintaining a true connection to the natural world, rather than to the human world where we think human constructed cities of today are more fulfilling that naturally constructed communities of nature where human imprint is harmonized. Creation exists because of imitation. Humans are no exception. Each of us were formed via cell duplication (cells making copies of themselves and then making slight changes to specialize. This is imitation of the physical and is the same way all else that humans do, comes into existence. There is no original human thought. All human thought is a variation (elevation or degradation) of thought existing elsewhere in Nature. Imitation of the whole (the tem) is the basis that allows an ecosystem to exist. All things must have a fundamental sameness in order for an ecosystem to work. Same is true of language. There is a fundamental sameness that allows communication by seemingly different creations to take place.
We Must Re-Member Who We Are And Where We Came From
As stated in Phase Zero, early humans were listening, observing and imitating as many aspects of nature as they could figure out how to. Humans still do this today, except we mostly imitate each other. Primitive humans observed the ways and works of Nature and imitated all they might as a means of thinking their meaning when they could not talk. Human language developed out of imitating the sounds of Nature. Human language also developed out of imitating the movements of Nature. They danced as the Grasshopper. They writhed and swelled and puffed as the Serpent. They panted as the Lion. They roared as the Hippopotamus. They hummed as insects and they pawed and make clicking sounds as the Ape. Early humans learned by kinship example and by that which was already inherent in them as Primates. They were not blank slates. Humans today learn the same way from that which is genetically in us and from parents, teachers, friends, mentors, role models, coaches, media, etc. We are always imitating something – something existing outside of us and something existing in our genetic library database of genetic memory. We are not blank slates. Early humans built their language in layers by imitating sounds, movements and the look of animals. This is why early humans wore the skins, feathers and horns of animals. Humans today do the same thing, but we call them clothes and jewelry.Early humans imitated Nature in order to make themselves understood to each other. They used Nature because Nature was a common basis of experience. This cannot be said of humans today. For effect, I repeat:
Dancing is a primary language and way of communicating thoughts, ideas, feelings.
This is why dancing is so deeply embedded in human behavior. Those who are classified as Black or African have been derided for our heightened natural inclination for dancing and we have shied away from dancing in pure form and allowed dancing to become perverted because we do not understand that our propensity for dancing is the spirit-soul trying to move us back to a better way of communicating that will also help reconnect us to better understandings of Nature, of self and of how to live.
