That works for me. Thank you.

You would appreciate a visit to the Pythagorean mystery school.

People 'are' music. All vibrating at different freqencies, either
harmoniously or inharmoniously. They are each a walking orchestra,
each one conducting either knowingly or unknowingly.

Group consciousness,by the above definition, involve mutual
conducting. "I'll dictate to you, but you must dictate to me". The
dance of musical karma.

And the beat "ALWAYS' goes on...

How about the existence of fact...and are you about to express
one ?;-)

Hey, what about 'come'?

2. For the mathematician, the operating range of all the numbers comes no
further than infinity. It would be a mistake for them to deny this as it
would mean that one comes no further than zero

Dance?

What else? "Like the operating range of notes that can be played.."

"Played notes" interestingly opening up the aspect of harmonics and
overtones. Number harmonic occurring by a relationship with zero.

Numbers go/come/dance/play through medium of zero?

I believe this question now has been answered.
