but i came up with a silly but funny hypothetical method of how to defend yourself against one of those biological programmed entity.. the "mass produced grays" ...
you just look at it and ask it "are you even aware that you arent aware that you exist times phi times pi?"
after a set of bugs-bunny-esque seizures, (EEK! AACK! OOK! ).. the offending would-be anal prober's head then implodes.

Interesting thread.
Please post the hebrew.

Like this:
1 1 2 3 5 8 5 3 2 1 1
I would begin at 1, go up to 8, and then back down to 1, only saying/thinking/flashing 8 once. 8 is the pivot. I would think it or say it aloud or flash it with my fingers.
The answer to your question is a very important aspect of the technique.
When I was manic, my mind raced and all sorts of images from my memory popped into my mind's eye when my eyes were closed. It was like a rapid slide show of images, one connected to next in an associative way, that I was able to discern as they happened. Being manic is taxing, but the ability of the mind in that state is just incredible.
Anyway the image that popped into my head immediately before I thought of the technique was a memory of standing between two mirrored sliding glass doors in my house. You know how you see an infinite reflection of yourself going in each direction, slightly curved? That is what I saw, and I thought an angel dropped in the image, and then the thought for the technique.
I imagine the number sequence 1 1 2 3 5 8 5 3 2 1 1, flash it, say it, whatever, and imagine each end, the 1s, as the vanishing point to infinity like the end of the reflection in the mirrors. The 8 is me standing between the mirrors.
This is a metaphor for what I thought was happening across my synapses in my brain. The neurons were firing out of control, and then I would focus on the sequence technique, and would calm down. The 8 is stored in my neural network somewhere, as are the rest of the numbers. Associated with that neuron bundle is the Fibonacci sequence and the associated numbers. Phi is then associated with those numbers. Phi in turn is linked to the place in my neural network that corresponds to the unknowns in my mind: numbers that extend decimally to infinity, God, angels, et cetera. This part of my neural network is a "dead end" so to speak. And so I would link the dead end to the 1 1 2 3 5 8 5 3 2 1 1 thoughts and then my mind would calm.

For the hebrew are you just turning the numbers into their corresponding words ?
Have you read the Sefer Yitzrah ?

so in all of the infinity that is Phi, you stopped at the 8 pivot?

I'm a programming student and I wanted the extra practice, so I made a program following your algorithm. My results: Our numbers match exactly up to the 8th one. After that, the data type I was using ran out of accuracy. I'll see if I can figure out a way to get c++ to calculate larger numbers and come back with results, although it's looking like the same so far.

But pi isn't infinite. See my above post. Only our limitation of only using one number system makes it seem infinite. As I said, in base 7 pi is exactly 3.1.

I think you will have trouble calculating the very large integers using C++. You would have to do some crazy coding to handle the overflows. Try the Ruby language, which automatically handles very large numbers. If you are on a Mac, use XCode, Ruby is built-in. Not sure what to do on a PC vis-a-vis the compiler.
