On ''what there is''

The question looks ''philosophical'' in the sense of ''what exist?''. In the old terminology ''ontology question''.
The modern formulation (by Quine) is: ''what are the values of your variables''? In our hobby ''what are
the new available components''?  Can one person know what are available components? Obviously not
but we have ''collective knowledge''. Each contribution is welcome. Like in science. But like in science there
are individuals with special contributions. Raul with his MM contributions and his ''successor'' chakster
with his contributions about ''both kinds'': MC's and MM's. Despite his ''modest means''. I think we should
be thankful to have such individuals.

Music is inside us not only outside us....

I can accept that. So the recording would spark the music within us. In what sense can it be said that music is within us? Perhaps, as we are what we eat, we are also what we hear (have heard). Though it is also said that musical attunement is innate with humans. So maybe true in two independent ways.

What a bunch of useless navel gazing and a terrible waste of time.
You remind me of the school yard limited bullies who did not understand anything save the end of their gaze...

You are free to pick another thread about cables anywhere here instead of insulting people...

You are completely right also here...

I wll not add anything...save that animals attend music in their own way... Music and sounds are "metabolic" phenomenon also.... They are not only internal for the mind but also for the body metabolism because music and sounds modify it...Then music and sound are internal and external in two different ways...

My deepest respect to you....

Watts is good, but even he cannot convey the nature of reality in less than a minute.
Very good video from Watts thanks....

Watts was able to communicate to all the consciousness feeling unity "sensation"... It is enough to do so....Most academic philosophers could not do that....

Watts is a Lao Tse for taxi driver....I was one younger and i read his books particularly about zen.... 😊
