Does that resonate with you?

Yeah.

I keep quoting, honestly, man, your book, this book is great.

Like I really loved it.

And it reminds me of the section humans lack these senses, but to assume they don't exist would be silly, even dangerous.

We have no reason to believe either that the world of science has exhausted the fields of material reality that are beyond our sensory perception.

On the contrary, the most logical and rational assumption we can make is that we are surrounded by forces and entities of which we are completely unaware of.

And that, uh,

are as yet undiscovered.

And it just makes me think of, okay, this is what you're referring to is a bit of more of a mystical calling and that there is water that we are thirsty for, union with God, however we want to describe it, that we find in our own individual ways.

Do you feel that our calling is bestowed upon us by some unseen force or that

we are co-creators with it, that we are complete generators of it.

How do you conceptualize that?

No, absolutely.

Well said, man.

It reminds me of the, you know, it's better to be an optimist and wrong than a pessimist and right.

Whatever are the objective truths to the claims we have within our beliefs and religious beliefs, what is the ontological experience of the person who believes it, you know?

And does that leave you in a better place where you're contributing more to the world?

Well, I'm going to take that one.

I think one thing that is a pervasive plague is what you referred to earlier, which you also name as the arrival fallacy.
