So, Pythagoras was right: There truly is a "music of spheres," though his concept was as mystical as scientific, but it forecast an apparent truth. Nice to know the universe is singing while much of humanity finds itself moaning, no? Nice writing, DeeceX.

Excellent writing. It makes me think of fugues, deep solemn choral sounds, and what we think of as silence.

For Hindus, to vanish into undifferentiated consciousness — the AUM — is the highest spiritual achievement. That, and toning your quads, are the goals of yoga.

I've always admiredd that sense of escaping "my self, my mind, my everything" like O'Leary promoted in the early days of lsd. Just letting go of everything as a respite.

Read The Tao of Physics. It’s the same premise.

Through observation and meditation Taoist and Buddhist philosophers ‘recognized’ patterns, and, postulated about things in an unseen, (quantum), realm. They applied rules they determined to both Micro and Macri existence. With an understanding that the two may even contradict.

I read "The Tao of Physics" and "The Dancing Wu-Li Masters" when they came out. As you say, both postulated a synchronicity between ancient spiritual doctrines and modern quantum physics.

You probably had good teachers once. :-)
