MORNING THOUGHT: The study of music is the study of deep vibration. Music lies waiting, patient and quiet. When those that are properly tuned to their own deeper vibrations want to express those deeper current in themselves and in all of life, they use music for that expression. Poets use music, dancers use music. So do filmmakers, sculptors, actors, and painters. Architecture, Goethe said, is frozen music. Music expresses our deepest being-in-the-world, our deepest perspectives. As we radiate vibrations into the world in words, actions, thoughts, and love, we radiate ourselves -- not as contracted ego-persons, but as the living voice of music ... as the living voice of the deepest vibrations that live not in time, but which create time itself. We love and need the vibrations of music because as musical sound manifests in time, for us to hear with our ears and feel in our mind-bodies, we see ourselves in the music. We feel our deepest vibrations. Egos disappear, and music shows itself to itself, as music. As life. As vibration. We sing our own deepest vibration in everything we do. Music is us -- in perfect tune.
