The Sixth Sense
I am not sure why we still consider only five senses. The ear contains the apparatus for the translation of environmental vibrations into the sensation of hearing. It also includes a vestibular system to help us understand our orientation in space based on the direction of gravitational forces. This system provides us with a sense of balance. If we didn’t have this sense of balance, we could not stand upright; we could not function. We already have a sixth sense. By going through the deconstruction process that you offer in your recent book, I hope we can regain a sense of balance by avoiding the extremes of left and right and finding a sensible middle ground where we can agree that we need humanity to be much more centred and grounded in reality.
