An important clip I think which didn't make it into the final version of the film. David Bohm only appeared to have made this foray into the Blackfoot at a late stage when he was rather ill but it seemed to have a profound effect on him. I believe that this is an important part of the new age that John E. Fetzer seemed so sure would come out of America.

Yes, I was wondering about use of language. In English, we are too hard, not process based. We want a predictable world, predictable things. Sapir-Whorf hypothesis like with the Pueblo appears to paint a world in flux. I don't think the marriage of the two cultures, languages, would be easy. We plan, organize, use the written word. The other is too flexible. Which would take 'precedence'...authority..?
