Dear Richard: I believe the first step towards "an actual and tangible experience" must be the sharing of some common ideals which will help erase or at least diminish the physical and mental borders by having people focused on the commonly shared ideals.
Thus we must focus on the fact that we are all humans living in the same world and that we all have common ideals such as that of belongingness (nurturance), beauty, humanity.
