/sci/ you are one of body and mind, I am body and spirit.

You are probably the smartest people I can have casual conversation with.

How does sci feel about sacred geometry?

I come to discuss how angles and patterns in sacred geometry correspond with the laws of nature. Anon, I have come to talk about numbers

I looked at the wikipedia article.

It's just basic mathematics. Mathematics is the science of relations. It's not surprising that one would find relations. At least it's not numerology which assigns meaning to numbers regardless of mathematical significance.

The relations are real, apparently, but don't warrant to be ascribed mystical properties.

The golden ration isn't any more mind-boggling than pi or e.

Well, go right ahead. Apparently you know more about this than us.

This, the math side of it is just geometry. The "sacred" part of it belongs in the same class as numerology, astrology, alchemy, etc..

No mathematician does research on stuff like the "flower of life" or "tree of life" and their "mystical properties".

The pattern of the universe is sexy as hell, and we describe it with math.

That said, sacred geometry is a crock of bullshit.

>> No.5037857

Why is the flower of life more interesting than other patterns? There are after all many patterns in the world. That you decide it is so in a whim and give it a name to which you attach importance so that your fixation locks into itself for nothing more than an arbitrary choice, resulting in and arising from a selective blindness come ignorance the beauty in the world and the principles from which it arises.

There's nothing sacred about it.

The "golden number" defines a relation by which A + B = C, and A is to B like B is to C.

This relation must have some "good properties" from a survival on Earth point of view for which evolution has made some stuff out of it.

And we, humans, find it "pretty" for the same reason we find "pretty" circles, triangles, trees, fit women, etc. Because they're funcional, and our mind makes an instant reaction for which we feel attracted to what is functional.

And that's why some architects like the faggot of Le Corbusier designed stuff using the golden number. Because they thought that it somehow was practical.

Enjoy.
