Spiritual notes
So many religions argue on the basis of names, but names are just pointers in the material world meant to guide us to the real truth which can only be found within and has no name. For the truth to descend to earth we must understand it without names, only by pure receptivity and genuine investigation can we find it.
To believe that someone is not on the true spiritual path, the path to true Self Realisation because he uses the words and names of his culture and not yours is certainly not in accord with the true Way.
Those who follow the truth most closely have no need for words, silence is their realm... when their bodies/minds speak, it is for the benefit of others, and all words, names, metaphors, contexts etc. are chosen for optimal conceptual understanding by the listener in their context.
How optimal this propagation of concepts is depends on the cultural knowledge stored in the body and mind of the Sage, the conceptual richness of the culture the conversation is within, and the receptivity of the listener to truth.
In our age, the richness of the cultural knowledge is extremely high. Formal languages can capture concepts perfectly and are accessible and understandable by hundreds of millions of people.
