The universe is called in Sanskrit jagat because nothing exists but by the comination of forces and movements. But every movement generates a vibration and therefore a sound that is peculiar to it. Such a sound of course, may not be audible to our rudimentary ears, but it does exist as pure sound. Since each element of matter produces a sound, the relation of elements can be expressed by a relation of sounds. We can therefore understand why astrology, alchemy, geometry, and so forth experss themselves in terms of harmonic relations..."
"...Evocation through sound, like creation itself, takes place not because of the material fact of physical vibration but on account of the existence of metaphysical correspondences. Therefore all psychological explanation of musical experience has to be discarded. In reality, the personality of the hearer counts for nothing in the phenomenon of musical evocation because evocation takes place even if there is no hearer, and if the existence of this evocation is ephermeral it is only because of the imperfection of the relation of sounds. Hearers can be differentiated negatively only by the relative acuteness of their perceptions, their greater or lesser deafness...
...In the same way the development of twelve fifths, instead of bringing us back precisely to the octave, leaves a difference--the comma--with which we shall have to negotiate. This will complicate every calculation and prevent us from formulating those rigid and simple laws, attractive but inaccurate, in which our vain reason delights. This comma, which the modern world tries so hard to ignore, represents, for those who can understand it, the essential difference between what is finite and what is infinite. The fifths form a spiral whose sounds, coiled around themselces, can never meet. For us, this limitless spiral can be the joint in the structure of the world, the narrow gate that will allow us to escape from the appearance of a closed universe, to a travel in other worlds and explore their secrets."
