Human beings have 5 kinds of sense organs for the physical world - Nose:Smell, Ear:Listening, Eyes:Vision, Tongue:Taste, and Skin:Feel. Different people have different fascinations regarding these sensations.. If you've seen the movie 'Perfume', you would know how the sensitivity to fragrance was explored. A particular sensation has a deep impact on our emotions & psychology.. In Gurdjieff's words these are referred as the impression food.. He calls it the third kind of food.. The first one being the physical food that we eat, it combines with the matter in the body and undergoes transformation.. The second one is the air that we breath, which combines with the matter and energy in the chest. and the third food, that arrives through the senses and enters the head(brain), ultimately getting transformed into higher energies.
Strange !! Isn't it? We are eating the whole day ! Anything that we see, hear, smell, taste or feel(hot|cold - soft|rough texture).. and i guess all that we speak, which is also a function of the tongue, becomes the food for others.. Gosh, There's so much to SEE !
This is so thrilling ! We are always holding a camera, a speaker-MIC, a sound recorder, a taste collector and a touch sensor.. All these impressions accumulate in us. They make our life the way it's now ! The response to stimuli shapes our future ! ! It gives a great urge to be observant forever . .. ... Let's Observe together !
