All languages need to be accorded orderly and consistent concessions when transferring intended original meaning.

Concessions with language w/Nisargadatta Maharaj &rjs
The World is the abode of desires and fears: you cannot find peace in it.
For peace you must go beyond the world. The root cause of the world is self-love. Because of it we seek pleasure and avoid pain.
Replace self-love by love of the Self and the picture changes.

Temporary concession with language: since words have no inherent meaning nor power, “we” might try plugging into NM’s intended meaning by seeing “Self” as “we (westerners)” see “Absolute” or “Wholeness”, “All, Emptiness, Fullness, Perfection, God, Nirvana.”
Absent all phenomena
No waiting
What could there be to wait for?
Who would wait?
What isn’t already?
