How to call It?

A human person standing up, alone in the steppe or in the middle of its boat upon the ocean or atop the roof of the highest building of the town, who slowly pivots, may discover the circumference of the horizon its sight can perceive: an almost perfect circle.

Is that the range of an individual human being?

The field of action and experience of its consciousness?

But does the consciousness of a human being depend on its sensorial capacities?

Deprived of its five senses – blind and deaf and incapable of tasting, smelling or touching -, how can it perceive the material world?

And how to discern the sphere of the entire earth at once?

Must not one rather contain it, not as the old humanoid wants to possess what it has seized in its hands, but as water contains the created?
