Lyrics
There's a myth
There is in the beginning the divine bird which lays the egg of the world
And the egg splits
Then the upper is the heaven and the lower is the earth
So, when the worlds are manifested the Lord breathing out there's tongue
And when the worlds withdrawn the breath comes back
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
There is in the beginning the divine bird which lays the egg of the world
And the egg splits
Then the upper is the heaven and the lower is the earth
So, when the worlds are manifested the Lord breathing out there's tongue
And when the worlds withdrawn the breath comes back
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
The sound of the waves
That [repeat]
And fathers flatter themselves as is saying dadda it's not saying that
Pointing to thatness and everything
It's very important to see this because everything says that
That [repeat]
I can say it in a negative way which you won't appreciate at first perhaps
Everything is meaningless
Everything is meaningless
Only words have meaning because they point to something other than themselves
The sound of water is undrinkable
But it points to the drinkable reality
And fathers flatter themselves as is saying dadda it's not saying that
Pointing to thatness and everything
It's very important to see this because everything says that
That [repeat]
I can say it in a negative way which you won't appreciate at first perhaps
Everything is meaningless
Everything is meaningless
Only words have meaning because they point to something other than themselves
The sound of water is undrinkable
But it points to the drinkable reality
The Hinduism speaks off the Godhead as uses the word Brahman
This is a neuter form in Sanskrit from the root bleak which means to grow to expand to swell
The neuter form Brahman does not have quite the connotation that you see of kingship
That we will find attached to the western idea of God
But is also referred to Atman
And this word we translate ordinarily the self
So, you can have the Para
Paramatman which means the Para the supreme self
Or sometimes just the Atman alone
And that means the self in you
But the fundamental principle of Indian philosophy is Atman is Brahman
Yourself is the supreme self

If a beautiful lady should say to me
I love you
And I was to reply are you serious or are you just playing with me
That would be quite the wrong response
Because I hope she's not serious and that she will play with me
I should say are you sincere or are you just toying
Because you see the word play has many different stints
A person who is playing the organ in church is certainly not doing something trivial
When you go to see a play called Hamlet, you're not seeing something trivial
When the concert artist plays notes art, he is certainly entertaining you but it's not a trivial entertain
But on the other hand, we would use play in a different sense when we mean just fooling around
Doing it for kicks

So also, music is a kind of non-purposive thing
Because you don't either play music to reach a destination
Nor do you dance to reach a particular place on the floor
It is the doing of it itself that is important
Music it is the doing of it itself that is important
Music it is the doing of it itself that is important
Music it is the doing of it itself that is important
Music it is the doing of it itself that is important
