Space Time Mind Equation

     Among my favorite numbers with esoteric value are 4 and 108. Exploring the esoteric fundamentals of these numbers has led to a greater understanding of the esoteric and exoteric contrast of concepts as well as understanding the qualities of other numbers, not just 4 and 108.

    The exploration of the quality of 4 for instance demanded an understanding of 3 and 5 as well as its double, 8, and the related 7. 4 is also related to 40, the 4 and 10. This unfolds most notably in the Tetraktys and related Tetragrammaton which intertwine sacred geometry, God/godliness and creation. The concept of four grammar arises from these symbols and the philosophy behind them as does the 4 and 10. The 4 and 10 unfold most notably in The Bible where 40, the 4 and 10 of The Tetragrammaton, morphed from The Tetraktys, is symbolic for the time-period of an initiatory process, or ascension of comprehension through initiation.

     In The Bible rain fell for 40 days and 40 nights in the flood story of Noah and his arc. Moses spends 40 days and nights on Mt. Sinai and he lived for 120 years, said be made up of three sets of 40 years. The Israelites wondered the desert for 40 years. They also stated that people should not receive more than 40 lashed as punishment. Jesus and others fasted for 40 days. Jesus ultimately visited his disciples 40 days after his resurrection. 40 is symbolic for the purification, dedication to testing and preparation for initiation practices and processes.

    In ancient Egypt the major part of the embalming process was covering the body in natron salt for 40 days to remove moisture. And in Babylon the God Enki, the wisdom bearer of subterranean waters, is also associated with 40.

    Today it is well understood by psychologists that human adaptation is cemented at around 40 days, that is to say it takes 40 days to start new patterns and/or break old patterns. The word quarantine comes from this purification through dedication idea too.
 
“Remember how the Lord (Lord and God in Bible = Tetragrammaton, meaning four grammar) your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands.” ~Deuteronomy 8:12
 
“He may be given up to forty lashes, but not more, lest being flogged to excess, your brother be degraded before your eye.” ~Deuteronomy 25:3
 
    The symbological relationships of 40 are quite revealing. And one implication of the symbolism shared broadly is that forty days of water leads to life and forty days without it is pertinent to death, and that there is positive and negative potentials.

    In exploration of numerological, symbological connections of potentially diverse cultures it has become clear that through shared numerological qualities the shared symbological qualities can be found and even expanded to enhance the related idea within the diverse cultures themselves. There are many lessons from the Tao which might enhance a Bible verse and vice-versa, for instance.

    So, despite the ideas in The Bible being powerful, provocative and revealing on their own there are other phenomena from other concepts related to consciousness comprehension expansion that ultimately relate and reveal in astounding ways that may be related or not.

    In order to reveal meaning and find correspondence let’s dive into the significance of two other numbers. There are numerous ways I have found that Taoist symbolism from China corresponds with and at the same time contrasts with symbolism from ancient Egypt. And as with so many relationships more broadly one of the ways these relationships are revealed is in the spiritual symbology and also in numerology and how the quality of number was perceived.

    When we think of Taoist symbolism the first thing that might come to mind is the Yin Yang symbol or Taijitu, literally The Grand Ultimate Pole/Polarity. The Bagua is often presented surrounding the symbol of the duality of polarity, these being the 8 trigrams. The trigrams are made up of broken and unbroken lines representing the contrasting and complementing Yin and Yang energy respectively. The 8 trigrams of The Bagua are the basis of The I ‘Ching, a divination guidebook on a divination process. When one trigram is combined with another trigram there are 64 potential hexagrams. These 64 potentials are explained in primordial understandings and used to comprehend subtle energy and conceptualize acting in accordance with unfolding energy in time and space.

     There is another philosophical/spiritual stream of comprehension among various Vedic traditions. Krishna is said to be the eighth incarnation of Vishnu and is sometimes referred to as the supreme being. Krishna is said to have mastered 64 arts in just 64 days. More esoteric tantric teachings put forth that there are 8 divine mother Matrikas, 4 of overt creative energy and 4 of overt destructive energy. The 8 Matrikas each multiplied into 8 forms and into the 64 Yoginis representing 64 tantric practices/lessons for comprehension expansion, ascension. The 8 is related to the 8 limbs of Yoga, The 8 directions (4 cardinal and 4 intermediate) and is at least suggestive of and in correspondence with The Noble Eightfold Path in Buddhism. Other Taoist tales put forth 64 studies or lessons toward ascension relating the same lesson in Tantra and The I ‘Ching.

    Going deeper still each of these sets of 64 provide exoteric and esoteric consciousness lessons. The exoteric lessons pertain to developing skills that are applicable for use in and assistance to measure the tangible material world. Secondarily the esoteric skills hinted at in the components of consciousness in The Eye of Horus are related to psychic consciousness of non-material and intangible. The I ‘Ching effectively describes a tactile format to tap into divination energies and psychic comprehension through 64 potentials. And the 64 lessons of Shiva and the 64 energies of The 64 Yoginis pertain to transcendence and higher consciousness and of psychic potentials.     

    The eightfold idea into 64 modalities of consciousness arousal, consciousness comprehension and consciousness measure unfold mind in the same inspiring ways and in the same mathematical procedure, each suggestive of higher consciousness potential. Interestingly within our very biological system is a code based on 64 potentials. The 64 codons within our DNA are based on the assimilation of different amino acids. So however the idea was formed as a representation of consciousness by way of number that they all formed a similar construct and the same subject is remarkable. Each of these ideas and systems are worthy of a great deal of deep research of course as we simply explore the relationship.

    64 divided by 1.6 equals 40. It is almost as if it is an equation or instruction to higher thinking suggestive of piercing the veil. It is almost as if it is stating that the limitations of place and time are superseded when space/ambience is contemplated by a focused mind. There is unification of ideation in the equation, a unification of space and place with time and mind. The symbological implications of the equation are profound. It is as if the 64/1.6 =40 equation reveals the unconfined power of our individual consciousness to bypass the confinements of presumed stratum or dimensions of inner and outer reality.

     The equation suggests the ability to surpass these confinements composed by our own consciousness. That the confinements of space, place, time and mind can be overcome by way of dedication or purification. 64, divination learning of exoteric and esoteric, conceptualized by way of the divine proportion of The Golden Ratio of 1.6 quates to the ascended 40 days of dedication to higher mind, or transcendence. Each of the numbers and ideations on their own are suggestive of and supportive of higher understanding and together they represent comprehension of the language of the universe, the intricacies of nature both seen and unseen.

    The equation 64 divided by 1.6 = 40 reveals and inspires comprehension of space, matter, time and energy, or space, place, time and mind, or otherwise known as the 4 elements, elemental literally etymologically breaking down to El/god, mental/mind (parts) and inferring higher understanding as well. And with the inspiration to do so quantum comprehension unfettered by the cultured limitation is attainable. Of course, the very word quantum is based on quantity and comprehension of parts of the whole.
