It is often said that a philosophy has many interpretations. Everybody can interpret a philosophy in his or her own manner. But in my view philosophy has only one interpretation; one that is eternal, one that is truth and one that is ETERNAL TRUTH. All other interpretations are nothing but beautiful illusions, always trying to allure you, always trying to embrace you, always trying to put you on an easy but the wrong path. But there is only one interpretation which emanates from the essence of a philosophy. It can’t be described in words and understood by mind. There is no language which can describe the meaning of philosophy because words have a language and philosophy has no language of its own. Its comprehension lies beyond the level of mind. It is similar to enlightenment. A moment comes and everything seems to be clear, beautiful and consequential. The path to its interpretation is illuminated by thousand lights. You don’t need a candle to explore its path. You just need to get rid of all the predeterminations. You need to be free, free from all the illusions, free from all the pre-determinations and free from all the beliefs. As Buddha says
“Belief as such is a barrier; it does not matter what belief it is, true or false.”
Be free and just follow the light. Surely you would be able to interpret the philosophy and understand the profundities that lie beneath.

Dear Siddhartha
Of course, philosophy is like a cinematic experience called darshan. But observing, obeisance and praying are all forms of art aimed at maximising this experience. don't think that language is only for communication rather it is primarily a manifestation of the nature, the self that upholds a darshan. So, how can language be missing from the realm of performance?
