Vedic New Year started on 7th of april,
Solar New Year on 14th of April, but the
Magic New Year on 19th of April !

The first magic circle of 2008 besides beinga flower of life toroidal stamp also encodes 2008 in it ...

is a purposeful act of will focused by a particular form and directed toward a particular entity or being; and for the primitive, magic-oriented consciousness all modes of existence, all beings, are alive.

Sound is the basic means for the transmission of the magical will.

Descriptive music is not music at all. Psychological music, so called, is equally futile as music. What the future will bring us is a synthesis of all arts; but within this synthesis, each component has to stay in its own place, to use its own means of expression, and not to make a horrible mixture of the "precedes" of all combined arts. We want Order, not Chaos. The music of today is chaotic, because it does not know what it wants; or even if it knows it does not dare to do the necessary thing to get there. It is built upon anti-musical elements; it tries to destroy them, and does not know how; it feels that something is wrong, but does not know what.

But above all, it has no ideal to express, no faith — social, religious, or any other — to support it; it is metaphysically aimless. That is the worst thing that can happen to an art.

Oriental music is there, if properly understood, to tell us its secret, and to illumine our darkness. I am not advocating a going back to Oriental music. That would be the greatest nonsense. We go forward, not backward. But, as in Logic antithesis succeeds thesis, and synthesis succeeds antithesis, I firmly believe that Oriental music was the thesis, Occidental music the antithesis, and that the future must give life to a synthesis in the direction here sketched
