From David Abram’s The Spell of the Sensuous (page 237):

…mind as Wind is a property of the encompassing world, in which humans – like all other beings – participate. One’s individual awareness, the sense of a relatively personal self or psyche, is simply part of the enveloping Air that circulates within, through, and around one’s particular body; hence one’s own intelligence is assumed, from the start, to be entirely participant with the swirling psyche of the land.
