Crystals are stated to communicate by people such as Teal Swan.
Do crystals communicate or are they used as a communication tool? Also, which kind?[/quote]
both, all, according to Teal.
Both used to communicate and self initiate communication as an individual life form.
All Crystals and gemstones.
This video better details her perspective.
Animal communication is dependent on the underlying idea of back and forth telepathic communication. I do share your perception that it happens.Animal Communicators such as Sonya Fitzpatrick have stated that animals do communicate in images, but also based on her communications I know they must also know about words. One dog was upset by its owner whenever the owner would call it the B word. Lori Spagna in her workshops showing how to communicate with animals describes the process of sending images.
I agree fully. Animals are also telepathic.
I have no disagreement in using language to describe the various forms of communications you give example of. I was only describing my take on what I felt Num7 originally meant in posing his question, I may be wrong. He might not have meant my qualified definition of language when he originally wrote his question.The proposed question is a syllogism dependent on the definition of thought and definition of language. I took language to be composed of a spoken and written lexicon with grammar, such as English
Ok, but not all "language" requires a grammatical structure. Baby talk...caveman talk... one word responses are still language...
However I also consider you completely correct in your statement, there is no thought without language, in the definitions you provided.
