"A scientist will tell you that only those things which can be observed, calculated, measured, weighed, compared, and classified are real and credible. All the rest is of dubious interest and should be ignored, they say. Very well, but this severely limits the scope of their consciousness, since two-thirds (for the sake of argument, let us say two-thirds) of the life of a human being is taken up by activities which cannot be weighed or measured. Yes, two-thirds of our time is spent living: nothing more. And if such a life merits no attention and is of no interest, one wonders why a scientist goes on living. Just like other people, they breathe, eat, drink, sleep, and walk; they have thoughts, feelings, sensations, and desires; they meet other people who they like or dislike – they sometimes even hug them – and they do all of this without wondering whether they are doing it scientifically. How can they bear to live a life which is unscientific? They should refuse! Of course it’s much better to continue living. But they should take all these manifestations of life seriously, even though, for the time-being, they escape their scientific investigations."

If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world. (CS Lewis)

The courage that is demanded of us is the courage for the most strange, the most singular and the most inexplicable that we may encounter. That mankind has in this sense been cowardly has done life endless harm; the experiences that are called 'visions', the whole so-called spirit-world, death, all those things that the senses could have grasped, are atrophied. To say nothing of God... (Rainer Maria Rilke)

We need solid nourishment to survive on the physical plane. However, in the invisible world, there are creatures who obtain nourishment only from perfumes, colours and sounds.
The majority of people find it difficult to accept that beyond the realms of minerals, plants, animals and human beings, there exist regions they cannot see, inhabited by creatures totally different from anything they know. In fact, the whole universe is filled with the most extraordinary creatures, some of whom nourish themselves with light, colours and sounds. Very advanced human beings have visited these creatures. Of course, for us, colours, music and light are not very substantial foods, but for these entities, formed as they are of such subtle, tenuous matter, light, sounds and perfumes represent not only strength and power but also nourishment. (O.M. Aïvanhov)

Many Indians have told me that the most basic difference between Western and indigenous ways of being is that Westerners view the world as dead, and not as filled with speaking, thinking, feeling subjects as worthy and valuable as themselves. (Derrick Jensen, The Culture of Make Believe)

So many indigenous people have said to me that the fundamental difference between Western and indigenous ways of being is that even the most open-minded westerners generally view listening to the natural world as a metaphor, as opposed to the way the world really is. Trees and rocks and rivers really do have things to say to us. (Derrick Jensen, What We Leave Behind)
