All Our Senses

See, touch, smell, hear, and taste. The more sensory input the stronger the experience and the better we remember it.

I don’t drink wine and never have but I've seen professional wine tasters deliberately smell wine deeply before they put it in their mouth to taste it. Why? For a more complete experience.

A movie with no sound could elicit some emotions. But with sound effects and music it is much more powerful. Now add 4D effects like a puff of wind, odor, mist, and movement at just at the right time and the effect on us is even more intense.

Nephi wanted to experience what his father had seen. But he didn’t want to just see it, he wanted to experience it with multiple senses. He wanted to “see, hear, and know”.

This applies to our desire to understand the Gospel. See, hear, and know. Listen to the Spirit, hear the words of prophets, and know.

- 1 Nephi 10:17
