The body is an instrument which only gives off music when it is used as a body.
India appeals to everybody. For me personally, I always felt like we would come here when we wanted to embrace all colours. I don't mean racially, but literally; just all the colours of the world.
The visuals are equally as important as the music. It's all a complete experience.
It will make you feel good, and it will make you feel whole, when the spirit moves you and it fills you through and through.
Hence my insistence that music and meditation should go together. That adds a new dimension to both. Both are enriched by it.
Looking at Mount Kenya in the morning is a holistic experience. I go back at least once a year.
I believe that life offers you packages. It doesn't offer you good and bad, otherwise you will choose the good and you will leave the bad. It offers you packages and every package has some good and some bad.
User experience is really the whole totality. Opening the package good example. It's the total experience that matters. And that starts from when you first hear about a product experience is more based upon memory than reality. If your memory of the product is wonderful, you will excuse all sorts of incidental things.
Architecture is like a mythical fantastic. It has to be experienced. It can't be described. We can draw it up and we can make models of it, but it can only be experienced as a complete whole.
Being with nature opens us up to divine experience.
Sport is singularly able to give us peak experience where we feel completely one with the world and transcend all conflicts as we finally become our own potential.
In a weird way, [hockey] is like church and therapy and exercise all rolled up into one.
Perhaps ultimately, spiritual simply means experiencing wholeness and interconnectedness directly, a seeing that individuality and the totality are interwoven, that nothing is separate or extraneous. If you see in this way, then everything becomes spiritual in its deepest sense. Doing science is spiritual. So is washing the dishes.
When we live our lives with the authenticity demanded by the practice of teaching that is also learning and learning that is also teaching, we are participating in a total experience.... In this experience the beautiful, the decent, and the serious form a circle with hands joined.
At times I feel as if I am spread out over the landscape and inside things, and am myself living in every tree, in the plashing of the waves, in the clouds and the animals that come and go, in the procession of the seasons.
Being a Jew is like walking in the wind or swimming: you are touched at all points and conscious everywhere.
The more living patterns there are in a place - a room, a building, or a town - the more it comes to life as an entirety, the more it glows, the more it has that self-maintaining fire which is the quality without a name.
If only there is a sufficient number of people whose experience of life goes beyond body and mind, this world will be a very different place.
It is about the entire experience. It's not just a new seat. It's not just new meals. It's not just better wines.
If you touch one thing with deep awareness, you touch everything.
In a traditional Japanese or Chinese garden, it's not only about the building or temple but about the whole setup - the structure, the landscape, the light, the plants, the water. The whole experience that makes your life there so beautiful.
Teach me, like you, to drink creation whole/ And casting out myself, become a soul.
We try to place the human body in relation to the image all the time, so it's never a kind of a backdrop, but it's more of ...a much more integrative experience.
This seems clear enough: When truly present in nature, we do use all our senses at the same time, which is the optimum state of learning.
I personally feel like the conversation around feminism has advanced a lot. People are starting to realize privileged white feminism isn't cutting it. We have to look at the holistic experience of all women, or assigned women, on the planet.
