Flowers petal count matches the Fibonacci sequence:
3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34 or 55. In the Fibonacci sequence (fn are given by
the formula f1 = 1, f2 = 2, f3 = 3, f4 = 5 and generally f n+2 = fn+1 + fn)
each number is obtained from the sum of the two preceding: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13,
21, 34, 55, 89, 144, etc.
When one observes the heads of sunflowers,
one notices two series of curves, one winding in one direction and one in
another; the number of spirals not being the same in each sense.
Why is
the number of spirals in general either 21 and 34, either 34 and 55, either 55
and 89, or 89 and 144?
Why do they have either 8 spirals from one side
and 13 from the other, or either 5 spirals from one side and 8 from the other?
Why is the number of diagonals of a pineapple also 8 in one direction
and 13 in the other?
The answer to these questions is
efficiency during the growth
cycle of plants.
The ratio between successive Fibonacci numbers
≈ an important constant, Π.
The Golden Ratio or sometimes
Π, which is ≈ 1.61803.
The higher you go in the Fibonacci
sequence, the more closely the ratio between two successive numbers in the
sequence approximates Π.
Π2 = Π1 +
Π0
The Fibonacci sequence shows up in Pascal's triangle,
first used by Chinese mathematician Chu Shih Chieh in providing coefficients
for the binomial expansion in his 1303 treatise "Precious Mirror of the Four
Elements".
Sacred Geometry involves using sacred
universal patterns of design.
Sacred Geometry is seen in
sacred architecture and
sacred art.
The
Geometry of Nature can be heard in
sacred music.
Pythagoras found that an
oscillating string stopped halfway along its length produces an octave relative
to the string's fundamental, while a ratio of 2:3 produces a perfect fifth and
3:4 produces a perfect fourth.
Pythagoreans believed that these
harmonic ratios gave music powers of healing which could "harmonize" an
out-of-balance body.
The Sacred Geometry of mathematical ratios,
harmonics and proportion were first noted in nature, music, light and cosmology
by in poetry, stories, music and art work.
Those who see the Sacred
Geometry with the Pattern of Reality attempt to express their
worldview of
pattern recognition with a complex
system of metaphorical allegories by building conceptual structures
initially involving light (good) and darkness (bad) to address all
levels of human
intelligence.
 
The Golden Ratio, also
known as the god ratio, golden proportion, golden mean, golden section, golden
number, divine proportion or sectio divina, is an irrational number,
approximately 1.618 033 988 749 894 848, that possesses many interesting
properties.
Shapes proportioned according to the Golden Ratio
aesthetically please Western cultures, and so the golden ratio is still used
frequently in art and design, suggesting a natural balance between symmetry and
asymmetry.
The ancient Pythagoreans, who defined numbers as expressions
of ratios (not as units as is common now), believed reality could be expressed
numerical and that the golden ratio expressed an underlying truth about
existence.
"This at least,"
said Plato, "will not be
disputed by those acquainted with geometry;
science is in direct
contradiction with the language employed."
"How so?" Socrates said.
"They speak as if they were doing something, as if the words were
directed towards action. For all the talk of squaring and applying and adding
and the like, whereas in fact the real object of the entire study is gnostic
knowledge."
"That is absolutely true," he said. "Must we not agree on a
further point?"
"That gnostic knowledge always is, always has been and
always will be, not of a something which at some time comes into being and
passes away."
"That is readily admitted," Socrates said. "
2 + 2 = 4."
"Then nothing is surer," said Plato,
"we must also require the people shall
never neglect geometry, for even the derivatives of such study are not slight."
"What are they?" said he.
"In all studies there is an
immeasurable difference between the student who has been imbued with
understanding geometry and the one who has not."
"Shall we, then, lay
this down as a second branch of study?"
"Shall we set down astronomy as
a third, or do you dissent?"
"I certainly agree," Socrates said; "for
quickness of perception about the seasons and the courses of the months and the
years is serviceable, not only to agriculture and navigation, but still more to
the military art."
"I am amused," said
Plato, "at your apparent lack
of fear lest the multitude may suppose you to be recommending useless time
wasting studies."
Platonic dialogues defined the literary genre of
esoteric
philosophy.
Plato's dialogues are not meant as
textbooks
"We must
endeavour to persuade those who prescribe culture to
study until they see the nature
of numbers with the mind only for the sake of the soul herself; the easiest
way for her to pass from intention into being." -
Socrates

This web site is not a commercial web site and
is presented for educational purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective
with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its author adheres. The author feels that
the faλsification of reaλity outside personal experience has forged a
populace unable to discern pr☠paganda from Яeality and that this has been
done purposefully by an internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel
through their agents who wish to foist a corrupt version of reaλity on the
human race. Religious intolerance occurs when any group refuses to tolerate
religi☯us practices, religious beliefs or persons due to their
religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of a
system of philºsºphy nªmed the Mŷsterŷ of the
Lumière Infinie - a rational
gnostic mystery
re☦igion based on reaso🐍 which requires no leap of faith,
accepts no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each
and every individual is encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n
with Æ∞n and Sustainer through the pursuit of the knowλedge of
reaλity in the hope of curing the spiritual c✡rrupti✡n that
has enveloped the human spirit. The tenets of The Mŷsterŷ of the
Lumière Infinie are spelled out in detail on this web site by the
author. Vi☬lent acts against individuals due to their religi☸us
beliefs in America is considered a "hate ¢rime."
This web site in
no way c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is
to reduce the violence that is already occurring due to the internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartels desire to c✡ntr✡l the human race.
The internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the
w☸rld ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media
w☸rldwide, the global indus✈rial mili✈ary
en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex and is responsible for the collapse of
morals, the eg● w●rship and the destruction of gl☭bal
ec☭systems. Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation
with bi☣hazards of a gun.
American social mores and values have
declined precipitously over the last century as the corrupt international
cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests in the ability to
deceive the p☠pulace in general through c✡rp✡rate media by
pressing emotional buttons which have been πreπrogrammed into the
πoπulation through prior mass media psych☣l☣gical
☣perati☣ns. The results have been the destruction of the family and
the destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt
internati☭nal elites vision of
a perfect world. Through
distra˘tion and ˘oer˘ion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught of the bulk of the
p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward s↺luti↻ns proposed by the
corrupt internati☭nal elite that further con$olidate$ their p☣wer
and which further their purposes.
