Must be the original copyright infringment :)
OTOH, the time gap is probably so large that the copyright had expired anyway.
It is a good saying, moreover a correct saying, so repeating it does no harm. One repeats what the other one says, knowingly or unknowingly, so what?
What is the intention behind this juxtaposition?
Perhaps sound is the first manifestation of something coming into being...
the sound might be a deep sound that can't be heard by human ear...
thus said to be word of God... Just a suggestion...
I think I posted it before, namely that the sun hums. You can listen to a recording of it on the European Space Agencie's website (although last time I checked the link was not operative), so I guess it is a genuine fact and not just a story.
"Vaak (word) was divided into four categories. The learned ones know them. Three of them were hidden. Ordinary man can use the fourth category only and that is the word."
(Atharva Veda, 9.10.27)
1. Para (AUM): Transcendental Principle
2. Pasyanti (M): Word in heart (spiritual)
3. Madhyama (U): Word as thought (mental)
4. Vaikari (A): Spoken Word (Physical)
The sound of 9 million active dynamos might make a

Got to love The Word. Thanks for the paralell Ekanta. :o)
Like the ever constant hum of a fridge our ears are so used to hearing The Word that we think we can not hear it.
Does a fish know it is in water?
