Patience
On the absolute musical level of the harmony we make the experience of the composer: we experience the infinite flow of perfect music beyond space and time.
If this perfect musical experience is permanently open to us, then the limited relative musical experiences are not able to lure us out of this so completely fulfilling state of experience of the pure musical world of the harmony.
Due
to our standpoint of perfect musical experience in the absolute musical force-field
of the harmony we are quite indifferent to the relative musical happening.
No longer we use our relative musical creation for our own fulfilment, but
only for the purpose of leading other music listeners into the infinite musical
world of the harmony which is now permanently accessible for us.
As a result of this permanent perfect musical experience, a quality grows within us which we commonly call "patience," a patience towards the relative musical process of knowing.
Because, seen from the state of our supreme musical fulfilment, our gradual progression from smaller fulfilments to greater and higher fulfilments leads always and only to the complete musical fullness of the harmony.
Once we are anchored in the unlimited field of the harmony, patience towards the relative, limited events in the outer musical force-fields is the most natural thing in the world for us.
For,
in our personal musical experience, we live beyond space and time.
Impatience, therefore, does not exist for us cannot exist since
impatience can appear only within spatial and temporal limitations, but never
in the unlimited musical field of the harmony beyond space and time.
