Oh, this is a chair. Oh, this is an apple, it tastes alright. Oh, I need to observe the taste, the taste. Oh, it's sweet. The colour, the colour. Oh, it's red. What's next? Quick, I need to be in the Now. What's next? Oh, the smell. Oh, it smells the same. Oh well.
The idea is not about sensory inputs.
