Geographical Scope of the Seven Senses
From Seven
The geographical distance that senses can bridge is one ordering principle to learn more about how we exist.

Taste
To perceive Taste we have to get something into our body. It is probably the most intimately sense of our body.
Touch
We can only feel Touch when something comes into physical contact with us.
Smell
Smells can be transported to us through the air. We can smell things from some distance off. Smelling includes the sense of taste and touch, some particle reacts with our organs by touching them.
Sound
We can hear Sound (the sense is typically called Hearing) through some distance. It is immediate and we cannot touch it but it somehow physically enters our bodies.
Sight
Our Sight is the sense with by far the longest reach. We can see things that are so far away that we cannot taste, touch, smell, or hear them. We can actually transcend time with our sense of seeing, in the night skies we can see things that have existed millions of years ago.
Making Sense
This sense is based on our Mind. The mind is physically bound but not restricted to our Brain. The transcendental part of our Self is not bound to our biological Body. Our mind tries to make sense of everything that it tastes, touches, smells, hears and sees. Making Sense is what we percevie as conscious thinking and represents the topmost, gross layer of our Mind.
Ultimate Truth
Arguably this is our seventh sense. There is very little Truth in our everyday life. Actually there is none but the three that make up the Ultimate and Absolute Truth. it is the only thing we can really know. Everything else is relative and underlies the interpretation of our Self trying to make sense
