Keely used accurate English words accurately. The problem comes in because he was describing phenomena that is not recognized or understood and we have been poorly educated by our over-priced education system. During my studies of his writings I collected and used over 50 dictionaries and logged his words and phrases into a word searchable database (HyperCard). This helped me break the confusing large picture into discrete and simpler pieces. He did however create words for his inventions such as the Trexar and Trexnonar, etc. If you take the time and put in the effort you can learn his use of words and phrases. What develops is a new view of physics accurately depicted by his words and phrases. There is now available 1001 dictionaries searchable in one click: http://www.onelook.com/ There is no translation of his words into modern jargon or use. I too thought this early on but have seen the situation to be otherwise. In some cases this is more or less correct like his and others' use of the term "ether". This we now know refers in general to the quantum realm of matter. Another discrepancy is his use of certain terms like vibration and oscillation. Our modern terms of vibration and oscillation are incorrect and inadequate for what Keely meant by their use. Same for the words magnetism, electricity, gravity and mind. So when we impose our definition on these terms we lose all the knowlege he strove to convey to us. What happens is we try to impose our definitions onto his use of terms and miss the mark every time. To understand his use of these terms we must "ask" what is meant. And in the asking comes the reply. Keely's words are OK, what needs modification are your definitions or "meanings" as concepts. Our school systems have been deliberately dumbed down which is to say our educations have been less than they could be. We are not educated. We have been trained to respond and act at a prescribed lower level. It is up to you to remedy your educations and bring yourselves up to higher levels of operation. I'm not passing judgement on anyone here - just being observant of the situation. [Dale Pond, 05/24/2003] |
