Abstract

This article suggests that 'evolutionary vision,' the unifying paradigm of physical, biological, and sociocultural evolution, needs to be fully embodied and deeply experienced in the human being, and that this can be effected by the experience at the heart of the 'perennial wisdom tradition,'1 that is, that of 'non-dual perception.' The article suggests an 'action-based' experiment paralleling the method of a 'thought experiment,' based on the assumption that one way that one can experience this embodiment is by 'trying on' the lens of non-dual perception, as practiced by the many traditions of perennial wisdom.
