In Buddhist and Hindu teachings, a lot of deep things were said through art or stories so that the essence didn’t get lost in translation.

a teacher handed her student an urn "What is the essence of this urn?" the student began to explain what it was made of, but the teacher slapped it out of his hand where it shattered on the ground "you are not enlightened"

How would you define ‘deep things’? Do they have to be personal? Are they eternal truths? What made you think of this question?

Deep things aren’t so much said as alluded to with words.

Depends on who you are talking to. Don’t waste energy on people who won’t be able to absorb it and transfer back to you at same wavelength.

when writing: yes, you always gotta be a little straussian, otherwise it’s too easy for the reader when speaking: no, in fact saying the deep thing often surprises people, sets a new ceiling for the dialogue, this is tectonic in both group settings and 1:1

Better said if they can be communicated in a way that can be understood. Mutual understanding can fuel authentic connection.
