When we hear a melody do we not feel our mind racing ahead to carry the tune? We haven’t heard it before but just the same our mind can anticipate how it ought to go. The particular melody is a block of sounds and abstract; yet in its order there resides something that appeals to our mind.
Our mind grasps the external world through ideas: ideas are charged with emotional power.
Tailpiece: Cosmos itself is an idea. Within which our mind conjures up an idea while we hear a melody; by being totally absorbed with it, Cosmos doesn’t cease to exist: It is as if cosmos is represented in any idea we entertain in time and place.
