I have read that current research suggests we live in a holographic universe or a vast spectrum of vibratory sound and light, of which our 5 senses are only attuned to approx. .005 of this spectrum.
With this explanation in mind and the fact that we have little control over the basic bodily functions that sustain us: plus our confinement to a highly systematized earth environment, it would seem that we are quite blind and robotic in nature.
