On lower levels of music our tools of cognition, feeling and understanding, are enlivened only to a small degree. This results in a correspondingly inferior musical knowledge which in accordance with its low level of energy is associated with only a weak doubt.
The deeper, however, we fathom the depth of the musical meaning, and the more our feeling and understanding activate their inherent powers of cognition during our process of gaining knowledge in music, the more these tools of cognition begin to clash in our intellect-space if the absolute sound-substance is not enlivened, or not enlivened proportionately to the depth of the process of cognition like two rivers that flow against each other, the one permanently producing heat, the other permanently producing cold.
