The Free, Independent, Absolute Musical World of the Harmony
The Listener's Cosmic Freedom from Limited Experience of Music
The Art of Not Being Bound in Music
After
having advanced into the infinite force-field of the harmony by perceiving
the absolute sound-substance, the listener recognizes this absolute musical
world as not at all bound to the relative musical process.
On the other hand, he identifies the relative musical process as being bound
to the absolute force-field of the harmony.
At the same time, however, he sees himself free from the outer limited musical sphere of experience in the relative field of music.
This
cosmic freedom the creative music listener preserves through his continuous,
clear perception of the absolute sound-substance.
And in his tools of cognition – on the level of his pure self-awareness,
in the field of his intellect, in feeling and under-standing, in the sound-substance
of his mind, in his sense of hearing, and moreover, even in his neurophysiology
– he sustains this perfect perception in a sixfold manner.
