source file: mills2.txt Date: Tue, 31 Dec 1996 00:20:33 -0800 Subject: pure or just From: neil.haverstick@csst.com (Neil Haverstick) Haverstick here...Morrison's comments on correct terminology are right on...that's why "just" has no meaning for me as applied to tunings...pure, as I use it, means primal, unaltered, perfect...which is exactly what the notes in the harmonic series are...am I missing something? Also, where is Danielou missing the boat as regards his interpretation of Indian music? Again, who really knows? Anybody on this forum? Because I think the points raised lately concerning the connection between tunings, music, and larger "Metaphysical" issues are very important, and should be pursued. In a similar vein, the Martians in Mars Attacks were destroyed by Slim Whitman's music...is this is what's meant by Shiva the Destroyer?
