God Geometrizes

Plato, also, the most opulent thinker of antiquity, found in geometry a revelation of the Infinite Mind, looking upon it as the very essence of religion, the knowledge of God. “What does Deity do all the while?” one of his pupils asked him. “God is always geometrizing,”........

I first read this in the early 80's during very mystical time in my young life after a profound 'near-death' experience and it has stuck with me. At the time, I worked in retail and the owner of the retail outlet noticed a trend. I was new and being transferred from one store to another. He noticed that whatever store I transferred to - the profit had a sharp increase. In fact, they admitted they were transferring me around so much to see if it was a fluke or if I had something to do with it. When they asked me about it - I told them, "English is my second language. Math is my primary language because that is the language I speak when I am home." (I was referring to the NDE.)

I was promoted to Manager and had the highest commission in my area. All the Supervisors where trying to get the other Managers to share my 'trade secrets' about getting such a high profit margin on my P & L's. I would tell them the truth - and they would think I was pulling their leg in an effort to get them to make a fool out of themselves and have their 'bottom' line take a nose dive. These were professional minds in the trade and yet they thought my ideas were radical and unconventional even with proven results. Their (older) minds couldn't grasp the language of numbers as I did. I was aiming at 'lower' numbers rather than the 'higher' numbers. They were allowing their 'greed' for profit blind them to the simplicity of 'less is more.'

There was a parable in the theme of 'mystical mysteries' because I found the average person couldn't grasp the 'non-logic' of spiritual truths. Sometimes, logic becomes the biggest stumbling block when searching for 'truth' or - what is real and what is deceptive in the 'state of illusion' the physical plane is all about. Just as some people had a mind to grasp math and some didn't - I felt some minds could grasp the mysteries and some didn't have a mind for it. I stopped talking about both - and just kept the info to myself after awhile.

Recently, I befriended an older man who plays the lottery games. That is an 'astronomical' equation with odds that the length of it could wrap itself around the universe several times. I mentioned something off the top of my head and he looked at me like I had lost my mind. I told him there was a way to stack the odds in the lower (3 and 4 digit) games to 50/50 if you played it right. (Less is more.) I went in search on the Internet for a "human" mathematical equation to prove my point. I felt someone had to have written this equation down somewhere (to prove my point to my older friend.) I couldn't find it written down anywhere. So - I started experimenting with it - on a spreadsheet and proved my point to my friend. (It is the art of randomization and how you can produce the same effect in an opposite direction.)

The whole experience reminded me of the obstacle of 'religion' is to many people's minds and how some religions 'sell' the idea of 'heaven' - similar to 'winning the lottery' - the whole pulling the 'wool' over your eyes. (Every non-believer will have their eyes opened to the truth when they pass over where reincarnation isn't a theory as much as it is a fact.)

His arguments and debates with me - in the process - just reminded me of the encounters I had with 'closed minds' about how God gemetorizes and there is no such thing as chance. I wrote a blog post because I am a little long winded at times. The story can be found at "God is always Geometrizing". It was funny how researching lottery players reminded me of 'reincarnation' and how organized religion is selling 'dreams' and 'tickets' to heaven where (supposedly) 'reincarnation' don't exist. The world is constantly looking at the 'truth' backwards because worldly minds want it to make 'sense' in a logical way.

Thank you. I have being trying to get across for weeks that esoteric beliefs don't necessarily fit a "logical" mold. I hesitate to say "spiritual" because that seems to imply "religious", and that sets people "off". There probably is "logic" inherent in reincarnation, but at this point we don't have the means to "prove" it. I have a sense of numerical patterns being important in the Universe, in other ways than the obvious. The patterns of our lives have a numerical component, but my grasp of mathematics isn't strong enough to see more than the "tip of the ice berg". I'm sure you are right - on the other side, this is all so obvious. I don't really know how sentient we are there, or how much control we have. I only have intuitions, and scraps of memory.
 
I find this post very interesting. coffee Later today I hope to post a reply! I love the way you presented it dking777.
 
I forgot to tie in the point of 'less being more' with the religious aspect. When I was in my early adult days (after my NDE) - I failed to grasp the idea of a 'pie in the sky' reward of eternal bliss in heaven. To me, heaven wasn't something you experienced in the distant future - as much as the here and now. Heaven (or divine nature) was something you grasped in the current moment you found yourself standing. The whole idea of incarnations was to bring 'heaven' down to earth one moment at a time (or, what I gathered from what limited knowledge and insights I had of it - at that time in my young adult life.)


When I started asking people to 'define' what they thought was 'heaven' (or their pie in the sky) I would try to convey to that the place they described flowing with milk and honey didn't exist anywhere except in their 'thoughts.'


I also feel there are some 'teachers' or 'students' of the subject of reincarnation who may be 'pinning' their hope on a brighter existence in a 'future' incarnation - if only - they can undo some sort of 'negative karma' they 'think' may be holding them back. Sometimes we have to accept we can only work with what we got sitting right in front of our own noses - in the current moment.


Sincerely,


DKing
 
After reading your post, I had a few thoughts. First, I agree with, and love everything you said. I had never realized the similarities between believing in the traditional idea of heaven, and the idea that you can dispel your bad Karma, and have a perfect life, but they are definitely there. A light bulb lit up in my head! :rolleyes: As humans, our capacity for self-deception is endless. I was taught that almost no one will achieve heaven. Reincarnation theory teaches that there are only a few evolved masters who cease to incarnate. Is it possible that "hell" is actually being doomed to live on earth in a body eternally, and only evolved masters go to "heaven"? Life isn't always hell, but there are elements! I'm thinking that the traditional ideas of heaven and hell might have a tiny element of truth in them. However, I agree with your idea that we need to make the "here and now", as happy as we can. You have given me a lot to think about, dKing.
 
HI dKing77,


Your post reminded me of a book I read years ago. Jesus the Master Builder - Druid Mysteries and the Dawn of Christianity; by Gordon Strachan.


He goes into length about the Pythagorean Number Symbolism in the Bible. He found extensive references within the writings of Philo ~ a first century Alexandrian Jewish philosopher. Numbers were not merely quantitative, they were also qualitative. He presents the importance of structures throughout various cultures as being significantly important to our spiritual awareness and how number/mathematics play an important role.


Don't let the title dissuade you - it's all about math, geometry, architecture and what the foundation of our current belief system could be based on. Fascinating reading. ;)

I don't believe that theory. I would be very careful about following so called evolved masters. You are your own master/guru - you have to trust and believe in yourself.


ETA: a near death experience account in which the woman discusses mathematics briefly - http://nhne-pulse.org/amy-cs-near-death-experience
 
Mathematics (including geometry) has been viewed by philosophers for many centuries as being the closest to truth that one can get, and therefore closest to God. No matter what planet, galaxy or dimension one lives in, two and two always equals four, and in a right-angled triangle the area of the square on the hypotenuse is always equal to the sum of the areas of the squares of the other two sides.


But when it comes to things like ascended masters, heaven, hell and the Bible, we are dealing with man-made laws, social customs and ideas which very often have nothing to do with the truth at all; and should not be allowed to influence current studies in Parapsychology. In my humble opinion, in order to understand Reincarnation, we are unfortunately surrounded by innumerable sources which conflict, confuse and obscure the possible reality of what it really is. Buddhism alone is not the key to finding the truth, because each teacher has a slightly different twist depending upon his or her own experience. The same can be said of Hindu sources. And Christianity with its varied interpretations of Biblical and Liturgical sources is even more corrupted that it is impossible to know what Heaven or Hell really is.


Ideally, I believe, Parapsychology should involve empirical study and objective observation without the interference of whatever we have learned regarding Philosophy, Religion, History and New-age ideas for these things steer us into very unfortunate dead-ends.
 
I agree also, firebird, and Ustawuz. I was speaking more of "masters" in heaven, than gurus on the earth plane. I also agree with John that so-called paranormal research needs to be conducted with as much scientific rigor as possible. I really don't think that the paranormal exists - these are just phenomena of which we lack understanding.
