Listening to sound as an art form composed of aural imagery can intensify the feeling that the listener is simultaneously immersed in the objective world of everyday events while in proximity with another transcendent, detached perspective on reality to which one might aspire.
Cognizance of connectivity between the moment now and deep antiquity-- characteristic of universal "timelessness" of experience-- is fundamentally perceptual in an uncanny or spiritual sense, rather than being intellectual or emotional in nature. It is more akin to awareness while dreaming than to physical sensory apprehension, and the fluidity inherent in sound lends itself to compositions that accentuate such states of consciousness.
