The tragedy of comprehending the
concepts [of conceptual comprehensions] of
the written word lies in the fact, that the process
of becoming, the image, is acknowledged as one of
the products of the process; the product is a
concept; the point does not embrace the circle for
us.

A concept is -- inside a circle
of judgements; in analytical logic it is the very
first moment, circles of thought are latched by a
constituent particle -- by the concept; the imagery
of a judgement is -- in front of our faces; the
dependence of the thought of the concepts upon the
images of speech is a fact of life of
thought.
|
|
We come to the recognition of
the meaning of a concept inside the circle, the
integrity of which is -- the image (the idea), or
myth; myth is alive; in the millennia of conceptual
life a single myth grows.

Sound is -- a circle of
circles: one can think distinctly in images, if you
find the single sound tying them together; in the
formations of mythology sound outlives itself.
Sound is imageless, incomprehensible, but --
meaningful; if it had developed a meaning unrelated
to the given meanings of the concepts, -- beyond
the falling leaves of words we would be able, as we
penetrate the written word, to penetrate to the
bottom inside of ourselves: we would be able to
view our own concealed essence; and the
sound-word
is -- an attempt; in the sound-word the universe is
restored.
