Language must be transparent because language is the only medium to express oneself. Language must be free from ambiguity and pleonasm. It must be logical simple and intelligible to both the reader/hearer and the speaker. It is clear that when our language creates confusion then we really demonstrates the maya inflicted use of language. The present day market economy demands the use of a language system that helps us to express what is real in us but to communicate in a way that is desirable to others. Interestingly, the desirability criterion has often been determined by the market itself. For ex. The market deliberately keeps propagating a theory that one cannot be satisfied with the minimum things possible but has to acquire maximum commodity. Here, happiness has been equated to a measure of commodity to be possessed by an individual. The question arises is whether the commodities are capable of producing happiness in an individual or if happiness is a state of mind to be attained by the individual by regulating oneself. The language of a self-regulated man must be consistent with the truth in himself. Such a man cannot be a ‘hypocritic lecturer’ at all. So what happens now-a-days is that the person who lives in a confused language system gets more confused and adds more confusion to both life and language. It is a fact that only a master can use a simple language and do ideal communication. The simplicity of language can only be attained by surrendering oneself to the truth in oneself. When one surrenders to the truth he or she reveals what is within and such a revelation always creates aphorisms like ‘aham brahmasmi’ (I am Brahman) or ‘tathwamasi’ (it is you only). We are using a language system that is confused with meaning and context and it affects every walk of life because at every word man has to use language. Everyone who deals with language has to express and communicate whatever one has to the other in a straight and serene manner. However, it is not the concern of the lingual experts or creative writers to help attain precision and clarity in writing. Unfortunately the whole language system creates confusion in expression, experience and communication. Religion is not an exception to this general rule.
