There is an opinion in the world community that it is impossible to imagine a Russian person without a mat. Swearing in our country people belonging to almost all social strata. You can often hear it on TV screens, on the radio, and even in kindergarten from quite small child. Most of us treat profanity quite normally, considering it just a means of expressing our emotions. However, in fact, foul language carries a serious destructive force, which, according to scientists, can lead to the degeneration of an entire nation. Moreover, this process is quite difficult to stop, because it goes unnoticed, covering an ever larger circle of the Russian-speaking population of the planet. Today we will try to explain to readers why it is impossible to swear under any life circumstances.
Before trying to understand why you can't swear in principle, you need to find out what falls under the category of "checkmate". If you carefully read the definition of this word in different dictionaries, then it becomes clear that swearing is one of the most rude and ancient forms of profanity in Rus' and in related languages.
Based on this definition, we can conclude that swear words were actively used by our ancestors. Most likely, you are now thinking that since great-grandfathers and great-great-grandfathers sometimes allowed themselves to swear with a strong word, then there is nothing wrong with that. But do not rush to conclusions. Perhaps in ancient times with profanity, everything was not so simple.
The history of the mat
Many people are so accustomed to swearing in their everyday speech that they don’t even think about why it’s impossible to swear and where these words came from. However, scientists have been interested in profanity for a very long time, and they have been studying this issue for decades.
Initially, there was a widespread opinion that the mat came to the Slavs from the Mongols and Turkic tribes. But a more thorough analysis of these languages showed that there was nothing resembling swearing in them. Therefore, it is worth looking for the roots of foul language in more ancient times.
Ethnopsychologists were very surprised by the similarity of the Russian obscenity with the spells of the ancient Sumerians. Many words were almost identical, which led scientists to think about the sacred meaning of profanity. And as it turned out, they were the right way. After much research, it was revealed that swearing is nothing more than an appeal to pagan spirits, demons and demons. It was widely used in pagan cults and rituals, but even then only special people who used their power to achieve certain goals could swear. Still do not understand why you can not swear? Then you should read the article to the end.
Many of the words that we use today several hundred times a day are the names of ancient demons, and others are terrible curse sent to ancient times only on the heads of enemies. That is, using the mat every day, we consciously turn to dark forces and call on them to help. And they are always happy to provide it, and then present an invoice for payment, which can be overwhelming for many.
It is noteworthy that even our ancestors were clearly aware of the harm of swear words. They didn't have to explain why they shouldn't swear in A common person could use profanity no more than ten times a year and only in the most exceptional cases. At the same time, everyone understood that retribution for this weakness would be inevitable.
Of course, many of our explanation will seem like a fairy tale. After all modern man believes only in facts and figures. But well, we are ready to consider this issue from the point of view of science.
Scientific experiments with profanity
Also in Soviet times scientists became interested in how the word affects living organisms. Since childhood, we know a lot folk proverbs and sayings about it. Eg, " good word and the cat is pleased” or “the word is not swollen, but people die from it.” This should teach us to be careful about what comes out of our mouths. However, most people take their speech extremely lightly. And, according to scientists, very in vain.
The research institutes of our country have been testing the hypothesis for several years about how much a word can affect the psychophysical state of a living organism. Experiments were carried out on seeds intended for planting. Three experimental groups were created. The first one was exposed to the most selective swearing for several hours a day, the second "listened" to the usual abuse, and the third was only slandered thanksgiving words and prayers. To the surprise of the scientists, the seeds that were hit with the mat showed a germination rate of only forty-nine percent. In the second group, the figures were higher - fifty-three percent. But the seeds from the third group sprouted ninety-six percent!
No wonder our ancestors knew that in no case should one approach cooking and planting with foul language. In this case, you should not even expect a good result. But how exactly does checkmate work? This process maximized Russian geneticist Peter Goryaev.
The impact of profanity on the human body
We think many of us have read the Bible and remember that "in the beginning was the Word." But most of people did not even think about what exactly is contained in this important line. But Peter Goryaev managed to reveal this secret.
After many years of research that he conducted in Russian and foreign scientific institutions, it was proved that our DNA chain can be represented as a meaningful text, consisting of words grouped with a special meaning. The scientist himself called this phenomenon "the speech of the Creator." Thus, Goryaev confirmed that with our speech we can both heal ourselves and destroy ourselves. He claims that thought forms, and especially spoken words, are perceived by the genetic apparatus through special electromagnetic channels. Therefore, they can heal and support us, and in other cases literally blow up DNA, causing certain disorders and mutations. And checkmate is the most destructive force of all. Petr Goryaev believes that a frivolous attitude to profanity leads not only to cultural, but also to the physical degeneration of the nation.
Surprisingly, doctors partly confirm Goryaev's hypothesis. They have long noticed that patients with a stroke or patients after severe traumatic brain injuries who lose the ability to speak can quite freely pronounce long sentences consisting entirely of swear words. And this means that at this moment in the body the signals pass through completely different nerve chains and endings.
The opinion of the clergy
Why can't you swear? In Orthodoxy, there has always been a consensus on this matter. Any church-going person can explain that profanity is, first of all, a sin that is not pleasing to God. With swear words, we amuse the unclean and call on the help of demons. And they do not miss the opportunity to lead a person into an even more difficult and difficult situation. Thus, we move further and further away from the Lord and cannot fully open our hearts to him.
In addition, many curse words are a real and terrible insult to Mother of God and everything female generally. That's why girls shouldn't swear in any case. As future mothers, they should carry only a bright program in themselves, and not be “stained” with curses and blasphemous words. And this includes the whole mat and any swearing speech.
Priests are always trying to convey that the word is God's special gift to man. With it, he connects himself with the space surrounding him with invisible threads, and it depends only on the personality itself what exactly will happen to it. Often even believing people allow foul language, and then they are surprised that troubles, misfortunes, poverty and illness come to their house. The Church sees this as a direct relationship and advises to carefully control one's speech even in moments of intense anger.
The impact of the mat on expectant mothers
Scientists argue that foul language has the ability to spoil the health and condition of a person not only in a momentary situation, but also completely change his genetic program, laid down by nature. Swearing seems to knock out certain links from DNA or completely change them. Any spoken word represents a certain wave genetic program, which in most cases does not have retroactive effect. Therefore, women in position should especially carefully monitor not only their own speech, but also the society in which they are located. After all, the influence of the mat extends not only to those who use foul language themselves, but also to the category that can be called "passive listeners." Even one person in a company using profanity can bring great harm to everyone present.
If you still do not understand why pregnant women should not swear, then you should turn to the latest research by scientists. They became interested in the data that in some countries cerebral palsy and Down's disease are extremely rare, while in others it is regularly included in the statistics of newborn diseases. It turned out that in countries where there is no such thing as "swearing", there are much fewer congenital childhood diseases than in countries where foul language is the natural everyday speech of almost every person.
Children and mat
Many adults do not consider it necessary to think about why it is impossible to swear in front of children. They believe that kids still don’t remember or understand anything, which means they won’t perceive profanity as something harmful. But given position fundamentally wrong.
Mat is very dangerous for children of any age. First of all, he is a conductor of violence in the life of a child. Foul language most often becomes a companion of fights and any kind of aggression. Therefore, children very quickly become saturated with this energy and begin to actively broadcast it into the world, sometimes surprising rather prosperous parents with their behavior.
Secondly, dependence is almost instantly developed from swear words. Psychologists quite often draw a parallel between it and alcohol or nicotine addiction. A child who has been using since early age profanity, with great difficulty will be able to get rid of this habit. The process will require incredible efforts from him.
Thirdly, foul language reduces the chances of your child to be able to find happiness in the future and become a happy parent of a healthy baby yourself. Therefore, try to convey to the children as clearly as possible why it is impossible to swear.
An interesting fact about profanity
Many are interested in why it is impossible to swear in prison. This rule has several explanations. The first is the fact that many swear words contain understandable insults. And they are interpreted literally. Therefore, a couple of such words can be perceived as a deadly insult, it is quite possible to pay for it with your life.
In addition, in places of detention there is a language - Fenya. It carries quite a lot of negative energy and psychologists consider its effect on the body to be much more powerful than mat.
Instead of a conclusion
We hope that our article was at least a little useful to you. And now you will choose your words carefully. Everyday life. After all, if every person begins to follow the speech and exclude foul language from it, then society as a whole will turn its back on swearing. And at the same time - from the evil that she carries in herself.
- Starting a conversation about swearing, let's clarify that we are not talking about those people who once a year can swear in their hearts, but about those who season their entire speech with swear words. These people are clearly different from those who do not swear. Which psychological reasons can move them to it?
These psychological reasons are easy to understand based on our philistine experience. What is mate as a language institute? This is some kind of taboo part of the language, that is, a language that cannot be spoken. Strange: why should there be a language that cannot be spoken? It's there, but you can't speak it. If you think about this contradiction, then purely logically it becomes clear: it is needed to show that I am breaking through this cultural barrier, I do not take it into account. Here I am, how powerful, here I am, how cool, here I am, how independent!
It is a relationship management tool. We can say that the mat in humans is analogous to the growl in animals, a warning signal: I am not safe.
People swear more often when they have an acute need for protection, for self-affirmation. This is not from lack of culture and not from an excess of strength. On the contrary, it is a spasm of self-doubt, a state in which a person especially greedily resorts to external attributes its importance. Simply put, the more scared people are, the more they swear!
We are frightened by the most different reasons. It is known from the decoding of the "black boxes" that the last thing that the pilots who managed to understand the inevitability of death say is not the word "end", but its obscene counterpart.
But you're asking about other people who swear for seemingly no apparent reason. In such cases, the reason is another fear, really invisible and not recognized by the "swearers" themselves, but strong: it is the fear of one's own lack of self-sufficiency, the unconscious fear that "I am bad", and that I will be punished for this.
There is another idea of why people swear: it is the idea of a "bad example" that all parents want to protect their children from. It seems that if a child hears “a lot of new words” from a friend, he will want to imitate him and will also begin to swear.
This is a surface presentation. After all, this example of swearing (and any other aggression) is presented to more or less all children and adolescents in the world. But everyone follows him in different ways, everyone obeys him with different pliability. And with great enthusiasm, he is followed by insecure people. The less the feeling of self-sufficiency, the greater the desire to pass for one's own.
- But there are examples of coolness and self-sufficiency of a completely different kind. There are intelligent people. Why, of all examples of coolness, future swearers choose just such coolness?
Coolness is important for them just like physical external protection. After all, they are scared!
Once again, back to the nature of swearing. What impression does this language make on us? First of all, the impression of increased aggressiveness. There is much less distance from swearing to a blow than from the correct phrase: “Well, Vasilyich, you surprised me” (as in famous joke). And so frightened people swear vigorously. Like, don't touch, otherwise I'll hit you. And so for children who feel insecure, subject to deservedly mistreating yourself, it's such a tempting shield.
- Is it possible to assume that factors such as insufficient vocabulary influence? The person does not know how to express his thought or emotion. And so he resorts to these words. The following connection is possible: a person has not read books enough, so he does not have enough purely expressive means?
No, there is no such direct connection. If a psychologically sound person does not have enough words to express some kind of subtle feeling or describe some new reality, he may experience difficulties, may resort to interjections, “mek - bekat”, but he will not have the need to swear. Moreover, the mat replaces the voids in an emotional sense, but not in a semantic one, it does not help the interlocutor to better understand: what is actually being discussed.
In fact, there is a connection between lack of culture and obscenity, but not direct, but, so to speak, indirect. The lack of words to express those very subtleties arises from the fact that the child simply does not hear these words. This is a child in whose family they mainly talked about specific material and economic topics. "Give me salt. It's already late. How many times do I have to tell you." But they didn’t talk about subtle feelings, they didn’t admire beauty, they didn’t sympathize with someone else’s grief. This means that in that family they did not talk about the feelings of the child himself, and did not sympathize with his experiences. This is how the child’s self-doubt is formed, a feeling of rejection, which then provokes him to “motherly protection”.
- This refers to an unfavorable environment in the psychological and moral attitude, or the fact that others swear, and is it like an infection?
It is the same. Outwardly, it may look like the father is swearing, the neighbor is swearing, and therefore our patient is swearing. But this is not an infection that is transmitted by airborne droplets. This "infection" is transmitted differently. If the father swears, it means that he has increased aggressiveness (that is, as we understand it, fear). And this, in turn, means that the father is not accepting much, he will not delve into the condition of the child, and even his wife. Therefore, the child will feel insecure, frightened. This is why he will need to swear.
- How does the habit of swearing affect a person's ability to maintain full communication with loved ones?
It influences very strongly, but not the swearing itself, but its origins. The same psychological reasons that provoke mate spoil a person’s relationship with others.
For our loved ones, such communication is complete when we take part in them. When we really connect with them, imagine their feelings, focus on their circumstances. When we listen more than we talk.
Looking at relationships from this angle, you will immediately notice that sympathetic people swear much less than people whose participation remains mostly virtual. You will not see a person who is inclined to listen, focus on the interlocutor, and at the same time swear vigorously. These are some different images.
- That is, a person who swears has difficulty in close communication?
Yes. Not because he swears, but for the same reason he swears: out of self-doubt. From this he swears, and from the same such a person is less sympathetic. His own psychological discomfort is so great that it is difficult for him to focus on the other person's discomfort. Math as a problem of speech reflects the problem of his mentality. It is very rare for a person to swear at an offer to help. As a rule, swearing accompanies a refusal to help: “Yes, you went ... there and there.” A swearing person is more negative for others, for household members.
There is another side to this problem. Life position swearing is close to the position of a fist fighter. And I must say that people love or dislike themselves exactly for the same reason they love or dislike others. Therefore, the fist fighter unconsciously does not love himself. He has, as psychologists say, negative self-acceptance. After all, none of us - neither intellectuals nor notorious swearers - no one loves a partner who stands in front of you in a fist stance. Therefore, when a person lives in such a stance, he develops autoimmune aggression, he does not love himself.
- It has long been customary for us to protect women from swearing, to say when someone swears: “What are you doing, there are women and children here.” Can you explain this psychologically?
I think this is due to two reasons. The main thing is that the mat is really a prelude to a blow, to a push, to a negative physical impact. And women and children are the first to be taken away from this blow. Another reason is that swear words are 90% related to sexual realities.
- Now we see that young girls are often not embarrassed, but swear themselves. Can you comment on this?
With what it is connected, I will not say for sure, I have two assumptions. One is that it is a natural consequence of the general feminist movement, in my opinion, destructive for human culture and the human psyche.
And the second explanation is that now swearing in general permeates the entire culture, language, including public performance than it was 15-20 years ago. And, if our logic is correct, that frightened people swear, then this is the result of a gigantic social breakdown, as a result of which people in their mass are now frightened. Old foundations acceptable life are broken, and new ones not only have not yet formed, they are not even visible on the horizon yet. And people are lost, so they feel an acute need for self-affirmation.
- the person has different ways satisfaction of their needs. Healthy, not healthy. Here the mat is one of the ways to satisfy the need for security and self-affirmation. Here is a man swearing. And what happens to his need at the same time?
Nothing good. It's a drug, not vitamin C.
- By the way, the word "drug" is very appropriate, in the context of the next question. The question is how people wean themselves from this business. We know that it is very difficult to wean off the drug, and we have all met people who used to swear, now they litter the language with some strange interjections, like “la” (a piece of one obscene curse). It makes them some kind of clowns. You look, the person is an adult, serious, and as soon as he starts to “lyak”, the idea of him changes. Why can't they easily unlearn and speak normally?
You give cases of purely mechanical getting rid of the mat. Mechanical, not meaningful. That is, a person has realized that it would be better not to swear, and begins to deal with this at the level of vocabulary, and not at the level of reason. Then inevitably there are all sorts of euphemisms, one or the other. Sometimes these euphemisms look comical, sometimes quite cultural. For example, a person begins to endlessly say "as if."
What is the content of the fight against obscenity, as with a drug? Indeed, this is a good analogy. Until a drug addict finds, finds his correct, meaningful activity, no chemical, medical measures will be long-term. He quickly rolls back. It's the same here. Since swearing is provoked by a feeling of one's own lack of self-sufficiency, this negativity is displaced by the search for one's own sufficiency.
First of all, we are talking about developing one's compassion, about the ability to focus on any person who came into view. It's difficult. The more exhausted a person is, the more difficult it is, but in overcoming this difficulty his main salvation.
Let's try to put ourselves in this person's place. He held on to the mat like a kind of shell protecting from the outside world, he was like a bristling hedgehog. And suddenly he dropped these needles, he feels so naked and defenseless. Probably, he will be scared, “how am I like that without a mat, everyone can offend me”? And how will his sympathy help him change his attitude towards people, help him feel that they are not a threat, but on the contrary, that they may need his participation, protection, and so on? ..
Perhaps this article will break some of your fashion standards and established norms...
We all know that you will not have time to go out into the street, as soon as you meet in a conversation not only among adults, but also among adolescents and children, obscene (uncensored) vocabulary.
This is considered the norm in our society.
So why this topic articles sound so categorical?
Let's see more...
What is a mat?
"Russian obscenities ( swear language, swearing, swearing) - in Russian and languages \u200b\u200bclose to it - swear words and expressions, the use of which is not allowed by public morality, intended primarily to insult the addressee or negative assessments of people and phenomena "
What is degradation?
"Degradation, regression - gradual deterioration, loss of the best properties and qualities."
[Wikipedia - Free Encyclopedia]
The final point of degradation is a bum, this is a killer, this is death.
If you listen to what the swearing person says (or screams), then you will notice that he is mainly expressed in obscenities about the genitals, functions and events. And in a negative way.
This is such a weird thing...
And it says this, from the point of view of Scientology, that this person is charged with sex, that's for sure. What does loaded mean?
"A charge is a harmful energy or force accumulated and stored in the reactive (unconscious) mind, arising from conflicts and unpleasant experiences that a person has had"
[Scientology Dictionary - L. Ron Hubbard]
Let's now see when a person swears.
With anger or irritation
It is not uncommon to hear a swear word from an annoyed person. It happens that a person does not swear, but when he loses his temper, he begins to devalue his interlocutor with obscenities.
His goal is not just to explain, his goal is to HIT AND UNBALANCE YOUR INTERVIEWER. Mom, this is easy enough to achieve.
We conclude that the swear word is used with malicious intent.
As a rule, it is rare that someone resists direct name-calling and obscenity, in response to the opponent (the one who listens to this) there is a response. And here we get two cursing (crazy) people who could discuss the issue or problem calmly enough if the first would refrain from accusations of foul language.
AN ACCUSED (SCANGING) PERSON ALWAYS EXPERIENCES EVIL INTENTIONS IN RESPECT OF THE INTERCOURSE AND HIS PURPOSE TO HUMILATE, SUPPRESS, UNBALANCE THE OTHER, TO DESTROY.
And as you know in Scientology, evil intentions, this means that a person has committed misconduct against another and continues to commit.
For example, a father curses his children, first of all, he has very little responsibility for them, if he already does this. Secondly, he has already committed a lot of misdeeds against them and no longer controls his negative emotions. Thirdly, he openly destroys his children (under the guise of upbringing and what they did "wrongly").
And if a person commits harmful deeds, he degrades to the same extent as he commits bad deeds. Mat - destruction, and a consequence - degradation.
During conversation
There is a category of people who have a swear word in everyday conversation. A person cannot explain something differently, because he has a narrow lexicon(there are few words in his mind with which he can communicate) and he uses swear words, modifying them, to explain what he wants or sees.
MATH - A SIGN OF THE LACK OF ANALYTICAL ABILITIES. And the absence analytical skills is degradation.
It is not uncommon to hear how teenagers "express" swear words with their peers. They think it's cool. And for any reason, they devalue and discredit their own "friends" ...
It is considered fashionable. Sharp word. But they don't know which road they are already on and in which direction...
This road is down to the lack of mental, spiritual, ethical abilities.
Among the homeless, alcoholics and drug addicts
If you are interested in conducting an experiment and finding out which sections of our society "express" more and constantly, go to the neighborhoods low level life, where there are a lot of homeless people, alcoholics, the unemployed, drug addicts, criminals...
There mat does not stop. The quarrels don't stop either. family scandals, swearing, disassembly, crimes.
The mat is attached to this layer of society firmly.
Accordingly, THIS IS THE NORM IN A FALLEN SOCIETY WHICH GOES ONLY DOWN TO DEGRADATION.
If you swear and say to yourself "it's okay", you are deceiving yourself ...
Swear words in a conversation (or lack of them) are a thermometer, an indicator of where this person is in terms of survival level, at the top (do not swear), in the middle (sometimes uses at the moment of strong irritation) or at the bottom (uses a curse in a normal conversation).
I think it's clear here. If your mat began to slip, it’s a reason to think about whether everything is clear with your conscience, maybe you are already destroying something (committing misconduct or starting the wrong way of life or leading a non-survival line of behavior) and don’t realize.
By the way, those "spiritual" personalities who claim to be spiritual development and declare it, are not at all on it. This is deceiving you and yourself. They aspire to the same place where a homeless man who swears his homeless friend strives, down to degradation.
MATH - A SIGN OF A LOW LEVEL OF ETHICS.
Ethics is common sense. which is used for the survival of oneself, one's environment and other areas of life.
Therefore, think about the meaning of this article, this material is not written as "theoretical" or "for curiosity".
It was written on the basis of many observations, his own life and the lives of others, different social strata of society.
And it is written in order to start changing towards improvement and development.
It is not good to swear - this truth has been known to many since childhood, and in some cases it is also fixed by physical sensations that are forever imprinted in the memory of those from whom parents heard swear words. However, there is hardly a single adult who has never uttered a single swear word in his life. Mat is unacceptable, ugly, not elegant, etc. And yet, it exists and is very popular among all segments of the population. In addition, psychologists partially justify people who swear.
7 reasons that justify swearing
Mat is unacceptable, ugly, not elegant, etc. And yet, it exists and is very popular among all segments of the population. In addition, psychologists partially justify people who swear by highlighting at least seven reasons for the popularity (or even benefits) of swearing.
Reason 1: Pain Relief
Mat activates the body's fight-or-flight response, which is an adrenaline rush followed by an analgesic effect. This theory was proven experimentally: people who swore obscenities could keep their hands in ice water twice as long as those who did not use swear words during the experiment. Moreover, such an effect obtained from a mat is typical only for people who use it in exceptional cases, and do not use it almost always during communication. People who swear constantly are less sensitive to the effects of swear words, and therefore their body does not respond to them with an adrenaline rush.
Reason 2: Power and control
Checkmate gives a person the opportunity to feel more power and control over a bad situation. Even if a person demonstrates this very power to himself, this is very important, because he no longer feels like a passive victim, but is ready to respond and fight against the prevailing circumstances. And this, in turn, can instantly raise self-esteem and increase self-confidence in specific situation and provide incentives for corrective action. Mark Twain also said: “If you are angry, count to four; if you are very angry, swear.”
Reason 3: Non-violent retribution
Swear words are a weapon that a person uses to get revenge bad people without resorting to violence. Instead of hitting someone, we vent our anger with swearing. Psychologists also draw a parallel: swearing is the same for a person as growling is for an animal. Thus, he warns the interlocutor that he should be more careful, otherwise the consequences can be disastrous.
Reason 4: Humor
Swearing in a circle of friends is sometimes fun. In such circumstances, checkmate serves as a way to break free from ordinary social restrictions, as well as a mock fight with a friend. (Debatable)
Reason 5: Social connections
Believe it or not, but, like any weapon, a mate can be used for good: if used correctly and appropriately, a mate can show others that you belong to a certain group or feel quite comfortable with members of such a group. Cursing can also demonstrate that you are open, honest and sociable.
Reason 6: Self-expression
Swear words can also indicate that the subject of our conversation has for us great importance. Undoubtedly, the assertion supported by obscenities acquires the maximum possible emotional coloring. Thus, the swear word (again, said to the point) helps to emphasize the importance of the word or phrase.
Reason 7: Physical and Mental Health
Among the health benefits of the mat are the following: increased blood circulation, increased levels of endorphins, as well as a general state of calm, a sense of control and well-being. The main precondition for such advantages is that you should swear very infrequently and try not to get angry while doing so.
Estet-portal does not encourage you to swear everywhere and every day. However, as practice shows, sometimes a mat can serve as an excellent tool both for improving one's well-being and for eliminating an unpleasant or difficult situation. Therefore, use swear words, but only wisely.
