"All is number. *God is a number. God is in All." << Pacal's sentiment...Pacal = ancient Mayan Ruler....
After the past 5 months... I came to realize that yes, that's as true a statement about 'God' as can be made. In my opinion. I'm curious to know what anyone's thoughts are on this?
NUMBER... can be 'seen' with my own eyes. Or 'seen' with ANY of the other sences we have including the 'common' kind...<winks>... Number can be 'translated' even if I don't know math or understand the 'language' of the people. Number is inside the body. Nature is built from it too... we've 'proven' all this over and over. It's in the 'stars' and the way they move. It's in our 'minds' in the way of what our eyes consider 'beautiful' which then controls our 'love' and 'attachment' to one another... It's in our society in the way we function in ALL ways... money, time, calendars, etc....
It's the means by which we determine if we 'have' or 'dont' have enough...
It is the 'count' of our life... I am 39 years old. My mother lived 55 years. Her mother lived 91 years...
It is a statement that COULD unite all things... science with faith, art with science, nature with Us...and Us to space...and perhaps even Us to God..?? It would teaches about ourselves, our bodies, our minds and how we came to 'exist'. It would matter not what book you read, what faith/religeon you have or if any... you can be a scientist, a teacher, a doctor a farmer a mother a man a fish, a blade of grass...and God would be with you and you would walk with, in, through and beside God at all times...even when you sleep and even when you die.
You would 'hear' God in any music you enjoy, in any voice you give your ear to, in any expression you make with your own voice... God would be in the air you breath, in the water you drink, in the food you eat, in the sun and clock you govern your life by...and in your neighbor regarless of what 'color' their skin is...as the color itself would be of God too...
And well if 'G.O.D.' simply isn't in your alphabet or vocabulary... well then you could still find an enjoyable day today, find at least one shady tree to sit under and more then one blade of grass to comfort your sit... you don't NEED to have God in your vocabulary for 'god' to still be 'with' you too? NO Exclusions! What a concept??? For a God?
I wonder what would happen if we adopted the idea that God might be Number and truely in All things...
**Notice that I don't say MATH, I say NUMBER...just like Pacal say***
If alllll of the faiths, philosophies and 'holy' books in one way or another call God the ONE source, the ONE thing that is ALL things... and if we believe that...and I do...then I offer this to you as soemthing to think on and yet ANOTHER idea of what 'God' might actually BE... regardless of what you think God might 'look' like...and regardless of whatever 'book' you choose to read or follow... just think on this statement and then try to think what it is NOT....
"ALL is number. God is number. God is in ALL"
We are created in God's image... <<< This statement is NOT disqualified by Pacal's view.
So... do I dare say I 'invite' you? With love I ask this...
Name one thing in this existence that is NOT number in some way.
Then do the reverse and think of one thing (other then God and Number) that IS in all things.
I'm interested to know what you come up with, so please do comment.
So my current opinion stands with myself....Pacal makes the best case of God.
"All is number. *God is a number. God is in All."
I'm interested in all your thoughts on my posts, but this one is of particular interest to me.... so humor me and play....think and then write to me and share your view on this....
NOTE: These are 'words' and not an expression of 'faith' when I use 'christian' terms. I don't 'go to a church' as 'my house of worship' is the space I exisit in.
=====================================================
"Known as a magician of time, he understood mathematics, or numbers, as a type of language that transcends the subjectivity of human verbal experience. His sentiment "All is number. *God is a number. God is in All." is an intriguing way to catalogue the Maya's message that we are intimately linked with and informed by the Galaxy. All of life is ordered by the same basic, re-occurring patterns.”
*In the Yucatec Mayan language, the word "Hunab Ku" means Source - The One, Giver of Movement and Measure, the galactic core, "God".
