“In the day-to-day trenches of adult life... there is no such thing as not worshipping. Everybody worships. The only choice we get is what to worship.”
David Foster Wallace
That sounds like attention.
Tomayto, Tomahto
I don't think it's attention, at least not in a strictly receptive manner. You could say that worship is a merging process. There is a signal of intent that we haven't been able to measure using any physical apparatus. The problem with attention is that most things that are examined outside ourselves are only mirrors of ourself.
