DAVID ABRAM, BECOMING ANIMAL: AN EARTHLY COSMOLOGY | Are.na
What if there is, yes, a quality of inwardness to the mind, not because the mind is located inside us (inside our body or brain), but because we are situated, bodily, inside it—because our lives and our thoughts unfold in the depths of a mind that is not really ours, but is rather the Earth’s?

I can't understand the sky the way a vulture does. I can't know what a pond is the way a musk turtle knows. I will never comprehend a tree as a footpath like a squirrel can. But I will sense the presence of these unknowable perspectives like the sun on my face and I am grateful.
