What whole?

A perception, like seeing or smelling, is a direct experience in the 
now, untouched by conceptions. What do most humans do with this 
experience?  What does science do with perceptions?

Certainly science will explain much about these processes, but is 
that all there is my friend?  What happens when all conceptions are 
dropped from seeing or smelling?  Is there an intelligence, outside 
of patterns or conceptions, outside THE PAST, that participate in the 
experience of sight and smell?  Is it Dynamic Quality?  Can one make 
a switch and live in experience where direct experience is primary 
and static quality is secondary?  And I want to know this first-hand, 
not by science's "objective" interpretation.  Science offers one path 
of knowledge, is it the only path?  Is it even the best path?

What do you want to state about perceptions?
