Symbols are the shadows on walls of the cave

[Steven Burnand]

I am sure that there are other laws that are equally important to the laws of attraction and intention.
Also that these laws fit together to form a higher energy state such as a letter is to a word or a note to chord!

The ordination of the structure would also be important, as again with a word or a chord. In my mind, the symbolic structure of language and music, have not come about by chance, they are reflections or shadows of what is already built into the system!

Does this strike a chord with anybody?

In the beginning there was the creation and construction of symbols? Be they sounds or letters or numbers!

I would be most interested in any feedback on the above, sending my best wishes to all Steve

Steve,

Plato's Allegory of the Cave perhaps? Certainly strikes many chords...

Yes, it strikes a chord with me, Steve. "In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God." But do at least two have to agree on what the symbols mean before they can really mean anything at all? I think the "symbolic structure of language and music" have come about by agreement. But that's just my current opinion. Is there an absolute meaning already out there to be discovered? Or is it discovered only after we agree to its meaning? I don't know.
