“Through music one can change the ethos,
that is why the mythic kings
achieved education through music.”
Konfucius


“Music has the power,
to reveal the soul, to heal it,
to secure
order and peace
of the society and the world.”
Konfucius

“Even if a man would hold the throne,
but does not possess the necessary power of mind,
then he should not dare,
to make changes in the rites
and in music.”
Konfucius


“The purpose of music:
awakening through cognition,
consolidating through creativity,
perfecting through harmony.”
Konfucius


“Of what help is outer education to a man without human kindness?
But a man without education is helped by music!”
Konfucius


One could certainly continue indefinitely with such examples, but in a nutshell one can say that all great thinkers of mankind have considered music the most successful tool for education, not only in the sense of our modern, narrow-minded, artificial education, which historically has proliferated out of slavery, but in the sense of a natural cosmic education, an education operating according to the principles of cosmic law application and here, in music, specially based on central cosmic laws, the so-called harmony laws - an education that, with the help of the cosmic laws of harmony established within man accordingly trains and develops the feeling, the understanding, and the intellect in an integrated manner.

Since I have pointed out to so many of my scientific colleagues - and as musicologist I myself am also natural-science-oriented - their mental-emotional difficulties in such an obvious way, I want to add something that could help them further, provided they have not yet suffocated in that artificial, pretended academic knowledge so powerfully and violently disseminated.

Here I’d like to take the liberty of verbally introducing several additional states of consciousness to them that I am acquainted with. With the written text or spoken word, though, it is not possible for me to do more than merely introduce them to these states: were this different, the preachers and universities would be able to do that too.


“Knowledge is experience -
everything else is just information.”
Albert Einstein


Experiencing these states then necessitates - as is recommended by all great thinkers - the means of a music structured according to the harmony laws of the microcosm of music: with scientific precision and in a systematic-logical manner.

In natural sciences, theories result from practice. In music, it is exactly the same. Here, too, theory results from practice, because real music follows revelation and for the real artist revelation is as much practice as nature is practice for the scientist unpracticed in intuition.
Even Einstein confirmed this practice of experience through intuition with his theory of relativity by stating:


“On the path to discovery, the intellect has little to do.
There is a leap in consciousness,
call it intuition or whatever you like,
and the solution comes to you,
and you do not know how and why.”
Albert Einstein

Thus even Einstein’s theory of relativity resulted from his practice of intuition and/or revelation, and putting down his theory in writing, to Einstein, only served the purpose of making the revelation understandable to his colleagues by more or less long-winded ponderings, because large numbers of his colleagues had no knowledge in practicing revelation.
We find these instances where theory results from practice of intuition to be true with all great theories. Without exception, they all stem from sudden revelation.


“Thus, art always represents divinity,
and man's relation to it is religion;
that which we acquire through art
comes from God,
divine inspiration, setting a goal for man’s talent
that he achieves.”
Beethoven
