In this program, we delve into the fascinating ways words influence our feelings, thoughts, and choices, exploring both scientific findings and timeless spiritual wisdom. One notable study conducted by neuroscientists at the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at Virginia Tech has helped deepen our understanding of how emotional words affect our neural chemistry. Utilizing advanced neuroimaging techniques, researchers observed that emotionally charged words can trigger the release of neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. These neurotransmitters are renowned for their roles in influencing mood, motivation, and attention. Dr. Montague’s words help us realize something important: words are not abstract symbols; the brain processes them in ways akin to how it reacts to real-life, physical experiences. Understanding this connection brings forth insightful implications. If a single word can activate deep emotional and neurological responses, then the words we hear and speak daily are directly shaping the biochemical landscape of our minds. When someone receives harsh criticism, their body may react with the same stress responses as if they were facing a tangible threat. Conversely, a kind or encouraging phrase might soothe anxiety and activate reward centers in the brain. This direct influence reveals that language holds the capacity to heal or harm, empower or inhibit, uplift or overwhelm. Complementing these neuroscientific discoveries, spiritual teachings have long acknowledged the transformative power of language. Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan) has often emphasized the importance of kind, peaceful, and constructive words. In a conference with members of the Supreme Master Ching Hai International Association (all vegans) in December 2019, She shared: “We have to be a grateful being and repay others’ kindness. To be a noble person is not very difficult. Just think positive, think benevolent, act benevolent, speak benevolently, then you and your many generations will benefit. And people around you, any beings around you, visible or invisible, will be happy, and they bless you also. Anything negative will return to you manifold, even in your thinking. That’s why I have told you to keep, not only actions, but speech and thought positive. Because every negative tendency or thought or action will bring havoc upon yourself, and also create disturbance around you and harm other people – physically or mentally, emotionally, psychically, or psychologically.”Whether through science or spirituality, the message is the same: the words we choose matter deeply. As we go forward in life, let us be mindful of how we speak to others and to ourselves. May our words reflect kindness, intention, and wisdom, using this gift of language to heal, uplift, and unite, in the Loving Light and Grace of God.
