All great art is a form of complaint

I am trying to check my habits of seeing, to counter them for the sake of greater freshness. I am trying to be unfamiliar with what I'm doing.

The Indians long ago knew that music was going on permanently and that hearing it was like looking out a window at a landscape which didn't stop when one turned away.

Now that things are so simple, there's so much to do.

The purpose of music is to sober and quiet the mind, thus making it susceptible to divine influences.

Now that we have everything we need, we discover that there is almost nothing that we have that we want

The highest purpose is to have no purpose at all. This puts one in accord with nature, in her manner of operation.
