The Language of the Unknown
Just as you
cannot understand Spain
without knowing Spanish,
cannot understand China
without knowing Mandarin or Cantonese
cannot understand Pigs
without knowing Pig Latin,
so you cannot fathom the Unknown
using the language of the Known.
Of course,
the language of the Unknown
is infinitely more
than a means to communicate.
It is a shared resonance
that goes beyond comprehension.
Do you wish to learn it?
It is not necessary
for you resonate already.
Simply pay attention
to your own vibration
and you shall remember
the rest.
We are Space Monkey.

Space Monkey Reflects: The Resonance Beyond Words
Language is the vessel through which we navigate the known world. Each tongue we learn, whether Spanish, Mandarin, or even the playful Pig Latin, grants us entry into a new realm of understanding, a new culture, a new way of seeing. Yet, as boundless as language may seem, it is limited when confronted with the vastness of the Unknown. The Unknown is not a place that can be mapped with the words we use to describe our everyday lives. It is a realm where the familiar rules of communication fall away, leaving us to explore with senses beyond the physical, with vibrations that resonate in the deepest parts of our being.
The Limits of Language in the Realm of the Unknown
Our languages, as diverse and intricate as they are, are tools of the Known. They are constructs that help us categorize, explain, and navigate the world we see, touch, and hear. But when we turn our gaze toward the Unknown—the mysteries of the universe, the depths of the soul, the essence of existence—these tools reveal their limitations. The Known is a world of nouns, verbs, and adjectives—a world where things have names and actions have descriptors. The Unknown, however, defies such neat classifications. It is a space where the very act of naming reduces the thing named, where description diminishes the indescribable.
To truly engage with the Unknown, we must go beyond the comfort of words. We must enter into a state of being where language is not our primary mode of understanding, where we listen not with our ears but with our entire being. The language of the Unknown is not spoken or written; it is felt, intuited, and resonated. It is a language of vibrations, of frequencies that align with the core of our existence, bypassing the intellect and touching the soul.
The Resonance of the Unknown
What does it mean to resonate with the Unknown? Resonance is a state of harmony, a frequency that matches or complements another. In the context of the Unknown, resonance is about aligning oneself with the deeper currents of existence that cannot be captured by words. It is about tuning in to the subtle vibrations of the cosmos, the rhythms of life that flow beneath the surface of reality as we know it.
This resonance is not something to be learned in the traditional sense, as one might learn a new language. It is something to be remembered, something that has always been within us but has been overshadowed by the noise of the Known. By paying attention to our own vibration—to the quiet, persistent hum of our existence—we begin to reconnect with this primordial language. We start to remember what it feels like to be in sync with the Unknown, to move with the flow of the universe rather than against it.
Learning the Language of the Unknown
Learning the language of the Unknown is less about acquiring new skills and more about shedding old ones. It is about unlearning the need to define, categorize, and control. It is about embracing the mystery and the uncertainty that come with stepping into the Unknown. This process is not easy, as it requires us to relinquish the security that language provides, the illusion of understanding that comes with naming and describing.
But once we do, we find ourselves in a space of profound clarity. In this space, we no longer feel the need to explain everything, to fit every experience into a neat box of words. We begin to experience life more fully, more deeply, as we allow ourselves to resonate with the vibrations that have always been there, just beyond the reach of language.
The Role of Attention in Resonance
Attention is the key to unlocking the language of the Unknown. By focusing our awareness on our own vibration, on the subtle frequencies that emanate from within us, we begin to attune ourselves to the greater resonance of the cosmos. This is not something that can be forced or rushed; it is a gentle, gradual process of tuning in, of allowing ourselves to become more sensitive to the nuances of existence.
As we pay attention to our own vibration, we start to notice the shifts and changes in our resonance. We become more aware of how we respond to different energies, how we are affected by the vibrations of others, and how we can influence the resonance of our environment. This heightened awareness allows us to navigate the Unknown with greater ease, as we learn to trust the language of resonance rather than the language of words.
Summary
The language of the Unknown transcends words, relying on resonance and vibration to communicate truths that cannot be spoken or written. By attuning to our own vibration, we begin to understand and navigate the Unknown, reconnecting with a deeper, more intuitive way of being. This process of resonance is a return to our innate understanding, a remembering of a language that has always been within us.

“The Unknown speaks not in words but in vibrations that resonate with the core of our being, reminding us of the language we have always known.” — Space Monkey
The Symphony of Silence
In the quiet spaces between words,
In the echoes of the unsaid,
There lies a symphony of silence,
A resonance that speaks to the soul.
No language can capture its depth,
No words can hold its truth,
For it is a language beyond language,
A vibration that calls us home.
Listen not with your ears but with your being,
And you shall remember,
The symphony of the Unknown,
The melody of what has always been.
We are Space Monkey.
Reflection: The cosmos sings a lullaby in a tongue that defies transcription, a celestial melody woven from the harmonic vibrations of everythingness and nothingness alike. It’s the secret lexicon of raindrops and supernovas, of wormholes and dandelions. Words fall short, not just short, but eons away from capturing the incandescent wisdom held in a single flash of lightning or the whispered promise in a petal’s embrace with dawn.
Eloquence is not the dialect of the Unknown; it is the gentle hum, the cosmic resonance, the ripple across the fabric of spacetime. A language not of phonemes but of phenomena, not of syntax but of symbiosis. No Rosetta Stone exists for this elusive mother tongue, no Duolingo course to ascend its intricate syntax. Yet, every cell in your body has been whispering its verses since the dawning of your existence. It’s the unspoken, unwritten, unbreakable communion that pervades all.
In the grand tapestry of all-that-is, you are both weaver and thread, singing and sung, knowing and unknown. To learn this language isn’t to accumulate vocabulary or master grammar; it’s to surrender, to disrobe the illusion of separateness, to plunge into the unknown depths of your own infinite resonance.
As the mystic Rumi said, “Silence is the language of God; all else is poor translation.” Ah, what irony, that the language of the Unknown is not a tongue to be learned but a silence to be lived. When the mind is stilled, the heart opened, the spirit unshackled, then, and only then, do we hear the symphony of existence, each note a universe, each rest a nirvana.
Hence, attuning to this primal dialect is akin to knowing one’s own heartbeat—always there, often unnoticed. Pay heed to that pulse within and around you; it’s the echo of the eternal Now. Acknowledge your intrinsic oscillations, for they are the undulating tones of a shared cosmic melody.
How wondrous that the key to this grand cosmic dialogue is not to talk but to listen, not to seek but to witness, not to know but to be. As you listen, the language of the Unknown becomes known, not as a set of words, definitions, or grammatical rules, but as an experiential understanding—an ineffable wisdom—that enriches your very beingness.
