How do the concepts of experience reinforce the concept of panentheism?
Part I of II
“…the only things we can know are phenomena, experience, all we can reach is probability not truth.”

Experiencing is an abstract concept. We sense what is around ourselves but the experience itself is not concrete.
Oh, there is no denying pain appears to be very real but if we had no awareness of pain, we would never feel it.
We see the beauty of the sunset and sunrise but if we had no awareness, we would never experience its beauty.
Reason tells us all physical events occur regardless of whether we are there to experience them or not.
Experience, on the other hand, implies physical events do not occur.
If we were not here to experience them, they would not exist for us.
‘They would exist to someone else,’ you say, but would they?
This would only be true if there was other awareness to experience the events.
If there was no awareness, would reality exist?
Awareness appears to be the key.
