We have seen that our inner world consists largely of the operation of primitive fores unaccompanied by consciousness. So too does the outer world, the physical world is space. Every object attracts every other with a force so powerful that the whole universe consists of matter in motion, for the most part unimaginably vast physical objects hurtling through space at unimaginably high velocities. Most of the surface of the one we are living on is covered with immeasurable quantities of water which are also, because of the same force, in perpetual motion. What is not covered with water is half covered with plants shooting and vegetating, pushing down roots, turning their leaves on their flowers to the sun. The air above all this is in perpetual motion too, and so are the clouds in the air. Even a pocket of perfectly still air exerts a pressure on everything it touches. In this environment live uncountable billions of automotive insects, fish, birds and animals, all of them in constant motion. So the whole material world is a welter of movements, pressures, forces, tensions, attractions, repulsions and transformations of every kind -- over a range and on a scale so tremendous as to be altogether beyond any human powers of determinate representation, and without any known beginning or end in time -- and all of it, except for the tiny animal and human component which has arrived on the scene so lately, unaccompanied by consciousness. ~ Page 138
