1. A Critical Study of Alfred Korzybski’s Writings
Manhood of Humanity(1921) and
Science and Sanity(1933)
2. Human species is the first time –binder in the sense, he had
realised his new faculty and new dimension to analyse the
difference between man and animal
Fellow-men if infected with false ideas and teachings, they
pollute the whole social ecology and balance between
human-nature and time-binding capacity of the other men
and women.
Man if for survival gets selfish and greedy, makes social
conditions as such, where animal standards prevail, he in a
way oppress his time-binding capacity and suppress his
real human nature
Time-binder
(a)Human, (b) Fellow-men, (c) Man
3. Whatever man does, then his thought, action and
language breeds his time and this sets ‘the image of
man’.
His efforts determine accomplishments, tragedies
and become modus operandi of our reactions or
assumptions for changing the structure.
The cultural conditioning and cultural continuity is
based on consciousness of time-binding.
Time-binding capacity
4. Language, words, experience, knowledge formulate
structural implications of time-binding energies.
Energies are stimulants for initiation, self-direction and
self-improvement.
Way of thinking engenders human evaluations.
The perception as regards physical existence and human
affairs involves feelings, abstraction and an illusion.
Time-binding potentialities lie in real truths, which actually
are unreal truths, imaginary; yet conforming to verbal and
objective world to which a man believes.
The Time-binding Potentialities
5. The totality of World War I and its consequences is driven
out of negative time-binding process in words, deeds,
thoughts and language.
Unless human (a unit of mankind) is treated as an organic
whole of ecology and environment, there cannot be higher
order of achievement; because time-binding motifs and
symbols are misunderstood.
The sense of totality in time-binding function ( in context
of human values) reduces human difficulties, mental ills
and pervades the power of spirit and harmony, instead of
survival of the fittest.
