Why should one not give so much importance to words?

Question - Gurudev, why should one not give so much importance to words?

Gurudev Sri Sri - We attach meaning to words, and we distort them too.

 For example, the word brainwashing. 

Your brain, like your body, needs washing sometimes. 

You don’t want to walk around with a dirty brain, a dirty mind. What is wrong with the word brainwashing?

 It indicates a clean brain, a clean mind. 

But it is used in a derogatory manner. Also, the word disillusioned. 

It is good when you become disillusioned. 

You are out of the illusion and have come to reality. 

The word purana, it means that which is new in the town, the most modern. But today it conveys the sense of being very old. It is impossible to know anybody's mind just by their words. 

You do not even know your mind. So, how can you know somebody else's mind? Knowledge transcends language, like Love transcends language. And what we understand more than words is the vibrations. Our vibrations convey a lot more than what our words can.
