The precise quote is:
"In the third box are the biological patterns: senses of touch, sight,
hearing, smell and taste"
The colon implies that the senses are examples of biological patterns.
So I wouldn't necessarily say that biological patterns are limited to
the senses, but I would definitely say that the senses *are* biological
patterns of value. Everything is value and the senses are obviously
biological phenomena so I see no reason why not.
