Video:  Moonlight Sonata (No. 14) by Ludwig von Beethoven   6:32 minutes

     Every transition from major to minor in a sonata, every transformation of  a myth or a religious cult, every classical or artistic formulation was, I realized in that flashing moment, if seen with a truly meditative mind, nothing but a direct route into the interior of the cosmic mystery, where in the alternation between inhaling and exhaling, between heaven and earth, between Yin and Yang, holiness is forever being created.
