''Perhaps this feeling comes from a time before words, before thought, before interpretation, before competition, before reliance on the conscious mind and before identity, in a time when all new experiences are equal in worth and there is, as yet, no discrimination and established sense of boundaries or hierarchy. This is a time when, without boundaries or restriction, one is 'the whole world' and everything experienced of that world is an indistinguishable and resonant part of one's self with no need to explore it as a separate entity''
