I used to think the "here and now" was just a cliché – until i realised i was experiencing it.

Panoramic perception evolved for the sole purpose of recognising movements and changes, here and now. It evolved so that animals could be safe in an ever changing, insecure environment. It is a way of being open and safe at the same time.

At best, we can only focus on a specific part of what is "here". And when we do this, it is often because we have a personal interest in it.

But it's not possible to want anything with panoramic awareness, and this is the underlying distinction. Panoramic awareness is a selfless state of being, and it is complete in itself.

Vulnerable animals have to be free of any specific focal point, in order to be panoramically aware.

Predators combine their focused and panoramic abilities. They hunt for and want prey. This activity is governed by focusing on what they want.

Panormic sensing is a different way of being.
