ABSTRACT

Standing back to look across the spectrum of human awareness in all its various forms, we see one thing that stands out: the structures of awareness entrusted to us in our waking hours are a hybrid, an amalgam, an imperfect fit. A work in progress that depends on what we do with our extraordinary awareness legacy from this point forward, since at the moment the fundamental question of what they're "good for" remains unresolved and still to be dealt with. In the normal course of events, Deep Travel awareness arrives spontaneously through several channels. It can sometimes be "allowed" to return by the mind, because of a perception that there's nothing threatening nearby—a sort of "paradise effect," it might be called. Wider awareness opens us up to the world, but first we have to open ourselves up to it, even though it's already been ours for such a long, long time.
