The Uncreative Method of Creating Music

Let’s imagine the smooth surface of the water of a lake being stirred from outside, by the wind, to move in waves. On the mental level this corresponds to an external stimulation: through the senses of perception or through memory – which may also result in some sort of composition. 1-3

The Realization of the Enlivened Musical Creation

The true creative mental stimulation

through the inner breath is a completely different process.
Originating from beyond inhalation and exhalation, and being the basis of both, the inner breath
4, 6-9, 11, 15-21

creates from within itself an infinitely subtle universal vibration through the process of self-realization.
7. 12, 8. 13, 15. 25

This subtle vibration permeates the substance of our mind
1.-3. 2, 3, 12.-14. 22, 23, 19.-21. 34, 35

and stimulates

it to assume a form;
1.-3. 3, 11. 21, 12.-14. 22, 18. 33, 19. 34

thus – on the basis of the natural inner breath,
4, 6-9, 11, 15-21

from the inner freedom of self-realization –
