    The gradient of a function is normal to the level sets because it is defined that way. The gradient of a function is not the natural derivative. When you have a function, f, defined on some Euclidean space (more generally, a Riemannian manifold) then its derivative at a point, say x, is a function dxf on tangent vectors. feel free to ask any doubt we will discuss
