# A NEW BEGINNING

By exclusively focusing, we are presently missing something extraordinarily basic about the nature of life.

## Oneness as an Everyday Experience

Oneness, absorption, or the mystical experience of

presence, is normally understood as a result of grace, long years of prayer, forgiveness, moral living, and devotion.

But by using the senses as animals do – the active direct panoramic awareness to change happening here and now in our local environment – we can experience wholeness and a degree of oneness, in a matter of days or weeks.

It is ridiculous to ignore this experience just because it divorces oneness from its normal religious context.

And it's blind for agnostics, atheists, and sceptics to reject the experience just because it reminds them of religion.

Panoramic sensing doesn't require any faith, any morality, codes of conduct, laws and commandments, or belief. But there's no need to give up any other belief (unless it's so closed-minded that it rejects what animals can teach us). It also doesn't involve any money, secret initiations, oaths of allegiance, or clever theories.

This isn't a new belief, animals don't have to believe in it for it to work, it's basic to life. It's not a mystical experience, it belongs to everyday human life.

## The Simplicity Beyond Belief

If we go back to the "Who am I?" "Why am I?" questions – and ask "Am I all I could be?" "What is my potential?"

Panoramic perception adds a forgotten dimension to basic human psychology. It changes the fundaments of human potential and experience. It opens up a hidden depth of what it means to be human, alive and real.

It may never be as powerful as love, forgiveness, prayer, or meditation could be, but it's a new beginning. A new, unbelievably simple, starting point.

And, an added practical point is that forgiveness, selflessness, and social morality can develop far more easily as a result of experiencing oneness − rather than as preparation for it.
