There is a reintegration via the senses, especially by sound. With keen enough attention you can experience the initial moment of an unexpected sound, the half-moment before it is registered as such, when it is simply taken in in a blissfully accepting silence. This phase is so quickly written over, not least by your intention, that it is impossible to recover. And yet it doesn't exist in linear time, is not an atom of passing time but is an encounter outside of the process of interpretation and memory which delivers you to a self in streaming embodiment who can wonder about the reality of what he senses, or if he is dreaming. This is why objects retain an irreducibly enigmatic quality, why they hint of a lost Eden.
