Mystical symetry of numbers

You had the likes of Pythagoras, and minds of similar stature, with plenty of free time to work on such things. The encryption of these types of works is held in strictest secret within the innermost confines of the Esoteric Mysteries. The Bible? Obviously, especially if you are talking about The Talmud. But consider that Shakespearean works (and other works penned by the great Sir Francis Bacon) contain similar ciphers, too. The literature of the ancient and middle ages was primarily meant to carry multiple layers of messages. The obvious stories, then the encoded messages. Even nursery rhymes.

They were very creative minds with a real need for discretion and secrecy. This is why when someone says, "You can take a copy of Moby Dick and find word and number patterns" it seems ludicrous. Of course you can...it was likely encrypted with various messages, too.

Indeed, and it's no magic. The codes are added as the manuscript is edited, copied and later printed. This probably evolved together with the dawn of the æra of the printing press. Every letter was "programmed" with lead setting, it was easy to calculate els and other kinds of codes. It's not magic. It's rather easy.

Now this is an interesting gift.

This could be a Fresnel lens or this could be something out of the movie Contact?

What does it look like to you?

When it comes to prime numbers and visualisation, this one is my favorite. I've posted it before here in this thread, but it's just so amazing that I wish everyone would click in and check it out.

I am so lost, but intrigued at the same time... You are all far more intelligent than myself.

Don't be so much amased by system and order as you are amased by chaos, for out of chaos, system is an Ark, chaos brought order into this world, and out of order and system comes beauty and function -- life. Learn to see beauty and explain it, you'd see so much order just in the face of your neighbour.

Another interesting find having to do with 666. "Here is wisdom..."

666:212=3,1415094339622641509433962264151

In comparison PI=3,1415926535897932384626433832795

That's an equality at 99.997%

Very close to PI indeed!

I made a thread about number nine a while ago.

Basically it had the similar type of intriguing patterns:

9=9
9+9=18 : 1+8=9
9+9+9=27 : 2+7=9
9+9+9+9=36 : 3+6=9
....................

2347x9=21123 : 2+1+1+2+3=9

And so on up to infinity, as it seems.

Does anybody know of a simple yet smart way to calculate roots? I'm so tired of using "try and fail" to limit the correct answer when calculating on paper.

For instance, how did they calculate the size of organ pipes, strings, shapes of harps etc, back in the days when you know the ratio is 2^1/12 or the twelth root of two. How did they do it without computers and calculators? There must be a simple way! Argh!

Great

Found another one today. 100:81->

99.99999910 : 81 = 1.234567890
