Introduction

In my talk last night, I was discussing the disparity between the way in which most human beings experience their own existence and the way man's being and nature is described in the sciences. We have been brought up to experience ourselves as isolated centers of awareness and action placed in a world that is not us. What you do is what the whole universe is doing at the place you call here and now. This is not what you might call a fatalistic or deterministic idea. The real deep down you is the whole universe and it's doing your living organism and all its behavior. It's expressing it as a singer sings a song.
