“On Why Knowledge is NOT Knowledge IF it is NOT LIFE-COHERENT” by Prof John McMurtry

But knowledge is not knowledge if it is not life coherent. To be life coherent,
it must speak
to the felt side of being,
of which emotions
are key, or it is inconsistent and life-blind.
But emotions
alone
mislead us all over the place
unless
they are moored in life coherent
action too
– mainly
with words
that distinguish
all humanity
to be true
consistent with themselves
and known facts.

This is not just science or parts of the brain. It is all of them together.

It is the easy way to cite master lao

because it is life coherent

all the way across

and down

 in life function,

heroic like water and the sun in all alike.

Feel alright

needs

being

alright,

and being alright

means

being

life functional

where felt knowledge cannot go wrong

all the way across and down

verifiable by independent inspection of words, facts, conclusions where truth includes where we live in emotion or it short-circuits every which way –

as with US.

Feel alright

 needs being

alright,

and being alright

means

lvoa

check it out

says the Dalai

Lama

or fail says

Oxford

but

life reason

meaning

felt, thought,

action

for all

universal human

life necessities

in their

enjoyment

impeccably

all

together

beyond

song alone

helpless

in

gestural

moments

lost forever

when the rubber

hits the road

outside

everywhere

policy

decides

it dies

on the vine

Otherwise the heart-mind cannot be alright at all.
