The underlying concept of BioGeometry is the re-creation of an energy quality that corresponds to that of sacred power spots. In order to understand this, we must expand the horizons of our quantitative, scientific way of thinking to include the qualitative dimension, which deals with how all things affect each other. It is important at this point to explain this concept of energy quality that we are dealing with. A scientist might say, “Define what energy is? You use the word ‘energy’ for everything.” In our modern times, scientists have a divided worldview: on the one hand, they tell us that everything in the universe is energy; on the other hand, we find them identifying energy only through some of its manifestation such as heat, electricity, magnetism, and others within the four categories of gravity, electro-magnetism, weak and strong nuclear forces.
The famous American physicist Richard Feynman once said: “In physics today, nobody knows what energy really is! We know how to use certain formulas to quantify and use the different forms of energy, but we still do not know the essence of the energy that manifests in different forms.”
The generally accepted definition of Energy is its ability to produce action /effect /work, depending on the context, which defines energy not as what it really is, but through one of its attributes or qualities that are perceived as an effect on another object. Besides the traditional manifestations of energy in the form of heat, motion and so on, there are also many other non-traditional effects that should be added to our energy repertoire, and need to be included in the manifestations of energy. Thoughts and emotions are such examples. If you are embarrassed, you blush! If someone is angry, his face turns red; if he is in love, we can sense abundance of energy, but with a totally different quality! Isn’t all that, in fact, different forms of energy conversion? Electronic measurement devices, such as electroencephalograms (EEG) that trace the brain’s activity, show that the working of the mind is based on some sort of energy interaction.
Let us take this train of thought to another level. Is spirituality also based on an energy interaction or not? If it is not based on an energy interaction, then it is just an abstract concept with no real existence. This cannot be! Even sacred beliefs and the related rituals, that refer to an inconceivable Divine reality beyond the duality of time and space, are based on the manifestations of this ultimate reality within time and space as a sort of spiritual energy quality. Many forms of religious ritual are a way of interacting with this inaccessible Divine principle through its effects on the energy quality of certain locations. So you see, a whole new picture emerges which would need a new physics to grasp it. If we define energy through its effects, then we must also look at it from a holistic qualitative perspective. So let us go back to the first moment of creation and examine it from a qualitative point of view.
In the early Christian Gnostic writings that are attributed to ‘Hermes’ (believed to be ‘Thoth’, the god of Wisdom to the Ancient Egyptians) we find a Universal Law, expressed in the words “As Above so Below,” in a document titled ‘The Emerald Tablet’, which tells us that a grain of sand has within it the blueprint of a micro universe. If we try to understand the essence of what is within our reach and analyze it, we will find that the laws governing it will give us some insight into understanding the unreachable star. Similarly, we will use a model to understand the first moment of creation.
The most widely accepted theory of the origin of the Universe is that it started with a ‘Big Bang’, a sort of explosion arising from a previous stable state of so called ‘nothingness’ (Fig. 64). If we observe nature, we can see that a seed does not just explode out of its inert and seemingly dead state into a tree.
The growth of the seed is governed by a program or a mental pattern. This program is latent, and parts of it are activated to unfold and manifest at the right time when it is needed. Similarly, the creation of the whole universe could not have been a simple explosion without a program indicating some form of higher organizing intelligence.
The explosion released energy, it did not create it. As we know in physics, energy cannot be created from nothing or destroyed. So this energy must have been there within the nothingness, before the universe started. It was an attribute or an ability existent in what we term a ‘state of nothingness’. So energy is something that when dormant is perceived as nothing, but when it moves it becomes something. It has then been transformed from one state to another. So everything was there before the first impulse when our universe was created, but in a different, latent, dormant form. The actual essence of stagnant sleeping energy before the Big Bang is beyond duality, time, space and any type of attributes. But the attributes already exist within it, in one way or another. Beyond duality, every attribute in its extreme and its opposite would exist as one and inseparable. To describe such a state as existence-nonexistence, dead-alive, up-down, right-left, would be meaningless to us. This means that our intellect, which is based on the duality of time and space, cannot perceive or comprehend it. We can only perceive the attributes when they manifest within the duality of our time and space dimension after the emergence of the created universe.
So energy has all attributes already built into it. We become aware of energy through its attributes which manifest within duality. That is why we define energy qualitatively through its abilities. All the things that are manifested now as attributes were there within the essence, undifferentiated from their opposites. Every attribute or quality that ever was, or ever will be, exists already within the primordial energy and all its forms, and will manifest according to the archetypal pattern in the forming process of all natural systems. Whether the attribute is dormant or manifested, it is still there. We can therefore say that everything in the universe is a living energy system, in which the attributes are in a different degree of manifestation from deep sleep to full action.
Let us go back to the Big Bang theory. Before the first impulse, there was no motion, and therefore no time or space. As we have previously explained, before time and space there was everything, and there was its opposite in a sort of stagnant primordial state. This totality may be difficult to comprehend, and yet it is something that we all believe in somehow, but cannot express, because the mind cannot express something that is beyond duality. We try to express it in our manifested time and space.
What happens when we drop a stone into water? We get ripples; the ripples then gradually return to the original undisturbed state. The positive and the negative will eventually cancel each other and soon those ripples disappear and we have nothing. The first impulse of creation was just like a stone falling into the water, and that is what we call the Big Bang (Fig. 65). One Big Bang however, does not produce a continuous universe, because the opposites, like the ebb and tide of the wave, will cancel themselves out eventually. Somewhere there must have been a second sustaining impulse, but of a different nature. The second impulse must have been a certain type of motion, a balancing motion. It is a form of ‘circular motion’, where one thing revolves around another. Only through circular motion may one arrive at the unity composed of opposites. Duality means one thing in relation to its opposite, but with the circular motion we have a trinity that becomes a unity, because circular motion balances opposites in such a way that a new unity, larger than the sum of the components is created (Fig. 65).
Circular motion represents time and space. Circular motion or rotation cannot exist without a center. This center which balances circular motion is outside time and space because it does not rotate with the circle. This motion is balanced from beyond time and space. So, we have the first impulse, this power, this Big Bang. The second impulse is the circular motion, which is a law of balance, or a law to enforce balanced motion.
If you balance a motion according to a law, the law itself must be aware of the presence of the parts it is balancing. Therefore, there must be a primordial consciousness within the original primordial state before the first impulse, which is manifested here, and creates an awareness of opposites. So we see that the beginning of duality sustained by motion is also the emergence of consciousness. Consciousness creates the awareness of the parts balanced by the law of motion. It creates the awareness of every system in the universe, according to the information it deals with, within the data bank of that system.
Therefore, if we are going to discuss how the universe started, the power of a Big Bang alone cannot be the answer. The answer would be a powerfully meaningful conscious impulse governed by a law of balance. Religious texts and ancient myths of creation may be more accurate than we usually assume, when they say that in the beginning there was ‘The Word’.
‘The Word’ is more accurate, because it involves meaning, consciousness, and wisdom. If you say “uh” for example, it is just a sound, but if you add meaning to it, it becomes a word. ‘The Word’ expresses a conscious universe on every level from the smallest to the largest, governed by a meaningful law that is meant to produce balance and harmony. A true meaning which has the power to achieve balance through harmony, comes from wisdom. So wisdom is the foundation of the universe expressed in ‘The Word’. Therefore, saying that in the beginning there was ‘The Word’ is more scientifically correct than any other description.
Primordial energy manifests as the primary motion. Anything that we do that produces different types of secondary motion, transforms that energy into the different forms by which we perceive it. But what is it that moves and that we do not know? All that we can know is that this motion creates the duality of opposites, and that it is balanced in a way that we could call geometric. This balance which creates complementarities out of opposites is a law that works on all levels of creation, down to our physical reality. Furthermore, this balanced motion creates time and space that manifests on many levels according to its mode and level of perception. Attributes are qualities that can only exist within the duality of time and space, because we need their opposites to perceive them.
We refer to this eternal state from which creation emerged, as the monotheistic basis of all beliefs and religions. It is the primordial eternal essence of Divinity. Some Christian mystics call it the ‘Godhead’. Muslims call it ‘Al-Thaat’, which means ‘Essence’ in Arabic, or the ‘Unmentionable’, as in some ancient traditions. Our perception and understanding, whether scientific or religious, begins with manifestations within time and space. We all have our concepts of the creating essence through its attributes within time and space.
To make things even more difficult to understand, we must note that what was there before the first impulse and the creation of time and space cannot be said to be before the first impulse, because with no motion, duality or time and space, it is actually a state of before-during-after or past-present-future, all in one. The existence of the universe is actually within this timeless, ever-present, eternal moment from which the first impulse emerged, and in which everything will end.
Newton saw it in a much simpler way, when an apple fell on his head. He connected energy to motion and gravity. But the apple on the tree at a certain distance from the ground had in it the ability to produce a falling motion towards the ground. So we see that everything, even without movement, has energy inside it. So, at that moment (that we’re calling here the zero moment), there was the activation of a state that was there in a latent, dormant form, to manifest in an active way (Fig. 65).
Let us look at matter, and see how we interact with it. All matter consists of atoms. We will use the geometrical configuration of the atom as a model for illustration. Atoms are made of positively charged protons, as part of the central nucleus, and negatively charged electrons revolving around them in a circular motion, in one or more orbits. For our model, we will use an atom with one proton at the center and one electron circling around it (Fig. 66).
If these two opposite electrical charges get too close, they cancel each other and if they get too far apart they will not interact, and will slowly lose their charge until we end up with nothing. This is very much like what happens when you take two opposite colors (green and red, yellow and violet, or orange and blue) in pigment or colored light, and mix them together. They cancel each other out. The result is a colorless, dark grey pigment. We know that creation occurs through the balancing of the opposite charges. In our model, the balancing law of motion that governs the protons and electrons will produce a new unity in the form of the motion itself giving us the ‘Atom’ (Fig. 66).
Imagine we have a gigantic atom, and that the proton and electron are two oranges, hundreds of miles apart. One of them is moving around the other at such a high speed that wherever we put our hand, we can feel an orange. As we know, everything in the universe is pure energy, vibrating and pulsating at various frequencies. What we perceive as solid is actually energy in motion. So we have two oranges, but because one of them is moving very rapidly in an orbit around the other, we feel that what we have in front of us is a huge mega-orange! The only components in our simplified model of this circular motion are these two particles, oranges or charges, positive and negative, which represent a miniscule part of the whole circular or spherical shape. What is all the rest made of? The actual particles (which are the proton and electron in this case) make up much less than 1% of the volume, while 99% or more is just empty space. This empty space is filled with motion that is balanced by the laws of a higher wisdom. So it is a form of energy and not completely empty space.
We refer to the quality produced by the wisdom of the universe as the ‘Centering Quality’, which takes the qualities inherent in the balancing role of the center and spreads them into the whole shape giving it all the same energy quality as the center. This ‘Centering Quality’ puts a center in every point of the shape, so that the center is actually everywhere creating an ultimate permanent state of balance, unaffected by any changes in the shape. The actual center of the central point has no time or space attributes, and therefore connects to a different dimension than the geometrical figure it balances. This transcendental connection of the center to another dimension is a doorway through which the primordial timeless moment manifests within the duality of motion and shape. The shape actually becomes multidimensional through the ‘Centering Quality’. Universal wisdom in this context produces that quality.
An interesting story that relates to this ‘Centering Quality’ is attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, the great genius of the Renaissance. When Leonardo was summoned to meet with the Pope who wanted to know more about this great artist and universal genius, all that he did was to draw a ‘perfect circle’. Why was that so great? What Leonardo was demonstrating to the Pope was that the only way to draw a perfect circle is to connect to the quality of the center, and enter into a state where one actually becomes that center.
If you try to draw a ‘perfect circle’ you will probably try concentrating on the periphery with an eye on the center, but it will not work that way, as you have to become the center by letting its quality fill your whole being. Once you identify with the center, you get saturated with that ‘Centering Quality’; then you are the center. It isn’t you anymore drawing the circle, you are just manifesting it out of your own being, and the circle comes out perfect. Leonardo was only the spokesman who manifested the spiritual, balancing, harmonizing energy quality in the law of the circle. He demonstrated in a very expressive way the secrets of those ancient esoteric societies without really divulging anything of those secrets. He presented it in a symbolic way for those who were able to understand the hidden meaning within, and to perceive the subtle energy quality released through it. The Pope was receptive to this type of symbolism. The whole dialogue was a symbolic subtle energy quality interaction between them. The outward appearance was a veil that became transparent to a few fortunate ones.
Geometrically balanced motion is what we will call ‘Divine Wisdom’. We call it divine because we attribute it to the primordial balancing laws. If we try to balance something mentally, from within time and space, we will never achieve perfection. This will result in either an excess of positive or negative, and we will end up having all sorts of different forms of imbalance that may manifest as disease, evil and environmental problems. However, when it is totally balanced through a center from beyond our dimension, having an origin in the first laws of balance at the beginning of creation, then it is labeled ‘Divine’. Ultimate balance can only be achieved through transcendence beyond the intellect or personality. The only way this can be achieved is by accessing the primordial spiritual quality of energy.
We now know that everything in our perceived reality is mainly made of perfectly balanced motion that we perceive as Divine Wisdom. Then it follows that everything in our perceived reality is Divine Wisdom, even us! The main constituent of our body is Divine Wisdom. The word ‘Divine’ is used here in its abstract form and not linked to any belief or concept of God. It just denotes the primordial intelligence of the universe. In that sense, it is a form of scientific explanation that supports all religions and beliefs. We are now deep in our discussion of the holistic, universal integration of science and practical spirituality, irrespective of any belief system. This makes us wonder when and how science and spirituality ever became so vastly artificially separated?
Let us go a step further from our atom and look at the molecule. We learn in chemistry that when we join atoms in specific geometrical patterns, we get the molecule of a particular substance. Each molecule is made up of atoms that are negligible in size in relationship to the resulting molecule. We then end up again with 99% motion or ‘Wisdom’ as the main constituent on that level. However, by joining the same types of atoms in different geometrical configurations, we get different types of molecules. Therefore, it is not only the properties of the atoms that give the different molecules their unique qualities; the geometrical relationship (shape) between the atoms also plays a major role in creating the distinctive properties (Fig. 67). Shapes are the divine archetypal laws of movement frozen into matter. We will find that on every level we have shape, which is the outward expression of the balancing motion, as an expression of a Higher Wisdom. A divine pen is writing and expressing its wisdom in what we perceive as the shapes of nature. The question is: Who Can Read?
One of the laws that allow form or shape to create spiritual energy is the law of interfaces. An interface is the boundary between two things. We have two levels of boundaries; the first and simple boundary level is what we find whenever two surfaces of different materials touch. Any two surfaces have different energy qualities, and whenever we have two different energy qualities interacting, we have a boundary that emanates a Negative Green carrier wave. This could explain the special feelings we often experience when looking at the horizon or the seashore. The Negative Green emanating from the boundary of the horizon, or the boundary between sand and water, boosts our system with this energy of connectivity making it a perfect setting for prayer or meditation.
Another type of boundary which creates an interface is this special configuration of the boundary in which each part flows into the other. In topography for example, a mountain rising into the sky or a peninsula going into the sea or a bay, are such interfaces. When we have a real interface, and not just a boundary, we will find an emanation of a harmonizing energy quality that we measure as BG3. A double interface would be like a cave in a mountain. That is why we find, in many religious traditions, caves used by mystics as spiritual retreats.
This aspect of interface is something we use in our BioGeometry architectural teachings, and we find that it is a concept that was prevalent in the past. This design feature is very common in Islamic architecture where the double interface is achieved through the use of certain shapes at the top of the outer walls to create a sort of interlock between the building and the sky (Fig. 68) (Fig. 69). A double interface occurs when the positive and the negative have identical, similar shapes or special proportions, making them more powerful.
I always wondered how some people could spend many hours enjoying playing with puzzles, until I realized that puzzles are actually very powerful spiritual exercises. As the person is fitting the interlocking parts, the body resonates with a harmonizing energy. Many of what we consider just games that have survived through the ages such as chess, are in reality treasure chests of ancient esoteric sciences, and because of our lack of knowledge, we see them only as games.
Boundary and Open Energy Systems
What gives any shape its distinctive feature? The peripheral boundary of a shape acts as an insulating separation layer between the internal energy system and the outer environment. It controls the internal-external information energy exchange. This layer reflects the light waves that make the shape visible, and also carries the information on the attributes of the shape’s surface and geometrical configuration. The light waves, however, convey much more than just the visual aspect of shape, which itself is a product of the total energy-forming process of the object. It also carries the information about the qualities and configuration of the internal energy pattern which it radiates to the surrounding environment.
As we have mentioned before, the external surface of a boundary has a Negative Green energy quality. This means that the boundary has a penetrative carrier wave quality, which carries information through energy exchange between the inner and outer environments of the object. Through this subtle energy quality, boundaries simultaneously separate and communicate. This energy exchange penetrative quality is meshed within the reflective separating properties of the surface, resulting in a delicately harmonized balance between the individuality of the shape, and its collective role as an open energy system exchanging energy with its surroundings (Fig. 70).
In order to illustrate the properties of the boundary of energy systems, let us take the skin as an example. The skin is the most underrated of our body organs, besides being responsible for our touch sense its functions go far beyond what we normally presume. It is the main protective layer that separates us from the outside environment; it is our boundary that has a light reflecting surface marking the shape of our body, and a fat layer that acts as an insulator so that our internal energy does not dissipate into the environment. However, we are an open energy system and as such, the skin needs to have ‘windows’ through which the inner energy system can get information from the environment, as the inner cycles of the body functions are in harmony with the cycles of nature. For this purpose there are special points with a higher electromagnetic conductivity than the rest of the skin that act as sensors or windows in a house. The person inside can look to see what is happening outside (Is it daylight, shall I get up? etc…). These ‘windows’ or points are what we refer to as ‘Acupuncture Points’. They are joined by energy paths along the body, called meridians. We traditionally use these ‘windows’ to try and affect the inner workings of the body as practiced in Chinese Medicine. The windows in this case are used to peep inside the house. However, we should be aware that the primary function of these points is to mediate between ‘us’ from the inside and the outside world.
Like any boundary the skin has a Negative Green subtle energy quality that facilitates information exchange between the inner and outer environments. The fat layer of the skin acts as a storage medium of information, and as such it is like a ‘hard disk’ containing a copy of all internal and external interactions in our lives. In the Holy Quran it is said that when we die our skin will reveal everything about our actions in this life. Primitive Man and shamans were aware of these properties of the skin so it is no surprise that we find them wearing the skin of the animal whose energy properties they wish to acquire for a certain purpose.
If we take these concepts of subtle energy exchange with the environment to the personal level, we will find that we are an open energy system in which each person is constantly being affected by, and also affecting the collective state in his surroundings. For example, we inhale air which exists out there in a collective external state; we are changed by it, we use it individually, changing it and breathing it out to become part of collective air again. Similarly, what we eat or drink changes form as it comes out. Likewise, our emotions cannot be a closed energy system. We use the emotional attribute of energy existing in an abstract collective state in our environment, we interact with it, modify it, before it goes out again to the collective. In other words, we are constantly changing the collective vitality, emotional, mental, and spiritual qualities of our environment and vice versa. These are all energy fields of different dimensions that exchange information in a resonant way all the time (Fig. 71).
There is a universal aspect to our seeing, our thinking, and our feeling. These are the attributes within the essence of energy that are also present in all its transformations. When we use our sense of sight, the reflected waves from the surroundings go to our eyes and are sent as a nerve signal to our brain, where the image is formed and then projected out again to shape the perceived reality in front of us. It is an internal light, created by the brain as a reaction to the stimulus of the incoming waves, which projects an external light. The awareness of the meaning and content of the external image is formed when abstract consciousness interacts with our memory data-bank.
We are a certain complex energy pattern that manifests as humanity with all the primordial attributes of energy existing within it. Some are dormant, and others are active. This holistic universal way of looking at the perception process of the senses might shed light on the philosophical questions posed by Sufi mystics, such as: “Do we see, or is it the light that sees?”
The first ‘Word’ that created everything in the universe, and has in its meaning all the qualities needed by any type of living energy system, prevails as the hidden essence within all types of energy manifestations. Energy, in all its forms, has a hidden wisdom and is aware and conscious. Awareness and consciousness in their basic universal form, involve a certain mental or intellectual activity, dealing with interconnected forces of duality in an abstract manner in what we would call a basic form of perception. The energy in the room where we are has a mental and emotional abstract consciousness as part of its essence. We must, therefore, see energy in its multidimensional form, from the physical level all the way through the emotional and mental levels to the higher spiritual levels. We can then understand that awareness, emotions, and intent play an important role in affecting the quality of interaction with any form of energy within any type of system. These aspects not only play a role in the interaction with animate objects like humans, animals and plants, but play an important role in the interaction with inanimate objects such as buildings, machines and also natural elements like mountains and lakes. This awareness was at the core of many ancient rituals.
In order to fully understand the workings of consciousness and the resulting awareness within any type of system, we must look at awareness in a very broad sense, without restricting it to our human or animal type of perception. When speaking of awareness, we must realize that there is a vast hierarchy to it. For example, the cells in your body are aware. A cell within the immune system detects a virus, but your awareness cannot detect that virus although it is part of your body. When you look at a person you are aware of the person as a whole, but not of his individual cells. The cell, however, is aware of other cells, but not of the person as a whole.
So how does awareness work? Awareness works when this universal attribute of abstract consciousness within the essence of primordial energy itself interacts with our data-bank. It interacts with the contents of our data-bank to create our level and dimension of awareness. The level and area of awareness in the data-bank of any organism depends on the range of its sensory systems. The same attribute of universal consciousness that is present in the room creates a different kind of awareness in different energy systems. Even the room, or space we are in, has its own sense of awareness of what is happening within it, but in a totally different manner and level than what we usually understand as awareness. The room is aware of the resulting energy quality of actions within its space, is affected by it, and in turn changes the way it affects the functions within it. In plants, it creates plant awareness; it goes into a cell and creates cell awareness. If we are all aware, then why can’t I then speak to the plant or to the cells of my body?
There must be a universal language we can all understand at some level before the data-bank of the species provides the content for a language of communication within its perceived dimension. On the subtle energy level, beyond the perception that works through our data-bank, there are other types of awareness that we do not directly perceive, such as the levels of awareness within the body functions and organs down to the cellular and DNA levels. If we could find the primordial universal language that interconnects everything in the universe and keeps its unity, maybe we could communicate and exchange information with the wind, speak to the trees, animals and birds, actually to everything in the universe, whether visible or invisible.
What is this primordial language? It cannot come from our perceived reality because the reality that we see needs the five senses to form it. There is another language that exists that was always there before our perceived reality was created. What is it and how can we access it?
The language from which the first Word emerged is ever present. Although it is at the core of our existence, we cannot access it from our time-space dimension which is governing the perception level of our species. Looking at it quantitatively, the first impulse of the Big Bang was the center of radiation that created the universe. Everything is a result of the harmonic interactions of different vibrations. From those wave interactions, everything emerged.
The BioGeometry Multidimensional Energy Model
One cannot find an intellectual or emotional form of communication in a quantitative perception of creation. On the qualitative side, however, the first Word infused the resulting vibrations with all the latent attributes present in the primordial state from which it emerged. Those attributes radiate through the universe as the subtle hidden energy qualities that are carried on all kinds of waves, weaving the pattern of all created things. Our research shows that these longitudinal waves are holistic in nature and encompass qualitative components that move along emotional, mental and spiritual planes embedded within the two orthogonal (electric and magnetic) planes of motion (Fig. 72). This weave of multi-dimensional wave patterns is the universal storehouse of information from which all creation emerges and returns.
In this experimentally developed multidimensional energy propagation model, the waves move along the planes in the form of energy bundles (with each of the sub-planes slightly shifted) forming a tubular shape with a section similar to a flower petal as shown in the diagram (Fig. 72). The stylized flower petal shapes of the diagram are in reality very irregular. When detected by different persons in different situations they give a lot of information on the multilevel qualities of their energy pattern at the moment. The planes interpenetrate in certain significant areas.
These embedded higher planes of nature move at speeds faster than light and each of the sub-planes moves at a different speed. The embedded longitudinal waves of this model, although similar to Scalar or Torsion waves in principle, are different in many ways: They are multidimensional wave bundles moving at different speeds on more subtle levels and dimensions. These waves move along different time-space dimensions. The spiritual plane is beyond time and space, with a speed of zero and infinity simultaneously, it is present everywhere and nowhere at any time, future, past or present. It balances and holds the rest together through the center. This is the ever-present timeless, space-less state from which everything emerges and falls back into.
Time in this model is due to friction waves caused by the different speeds of motion between the sub-planes. As friction boundary waves, they have the highly penetrative negative green quality that interacts with the energy properties of other systems.
This model is very helpful in applying higher dimensions of energy quality to restore environmental harmony, especially in dealing with the psychosomatic effects of electrosmog.
We have an innate perception of the quality of waves as a sense of rhythm. Besides the quantitative effect of the frequency of rhythm, we are qualitatively affected by rhythm on a physical, vital, emotional, mental, and spiritual level. In the science of Harmonics, there is no difference in essence between rhythms and notes. When rhythm is accelerated to a very high speed, it becomes a musical note30; notes are qualities. In a musical piece, we have the qualities of the notes and also the qualities of rhythm.
Rhythm also expresses the qualities behind its quantitative aspect, and is thus through the law of Harmonic Resonance a primordial, universal, qualitative language of communication between all things in existence. When Pythagoras said that everything is number, he was transcending the quantitative aspect to include the qualities of numbers as living entities that formed the universe. The common language of the universe within all the different time and space dimensions is rhythm. Let’s take a look inside ourselves; our very life is dependent on the rhythm of the heart, any irregularity in that rhythm causes a disturbance in our system. Everything in the universe has its rhythm at one level or another. If we could understand those rhythms and repeat them, we could communicate with the universe. Without being aware on the conscious level, we already do many things to access the internal language of rhythm.
Music, as one of the manifestations of the laws of Rhythm and Harmonics, imprints the subtle energy qualities of the universe, from which its laws are derived, into the physical world. With music, we try to go back to the primordial consciousness where we could communicate with the universe using the language of rhythm with the harmonic laws of the universe. The qualities carried by the rhythms are then decoded into our system through right-brain consciousness that we refer to as ‘The Perception of the Heart’. This is, in essence, what mystics refer to as the ‘Knowledge of the Heart’. We use the rhythm and melody of music to enter into resonance with the whole universe. By their rhythmic motion, music and dancing can communicate with the universal laws of nature. This is the ancient science of Harmonics as practiced in the temples of Ancient Egypt and made partly known to the West by Pythagoras.
Pythagoras expressed the universal laws through mathematics and geometry, as part of the knowledge he had acquired from the years he had spent in the temples of Ancient Egypt. The Ancient Egyptians used number and geometry in their qualitative aspect to create a two-way communication with the powers of nature. They taught us that those qualities, like musical sounds and colors, can be derived through numerical values. Unfortunately, all these ways of qualitative communication with the universe have been lost and mathematics has been confined to its modern quantitative form. Mathematics has proven to be very useful in building our modern technology which brought leisure into everyday life, but that was at the cost of losing touch with the subtle energy qualities in nature. We have lost the image and rhythm based communication of right-brain perception that connected us with universal knowledge and the natural powers of nature.
When two energy fields are in resonance and exchange information, something happens after the resonance is over. The two systems do not go back to their original state. A sort of vibratory impregnation occurs, which means that part of the new information leaves an imprint on both energy systems. Accordingly all systems in the universe are in constant interaction and evolution through resonance.
What exactly is implied by impregnation? There is a sort of memory effect in every energy system; if in every interaction between two energy systems an information exchange takes place, then these systems are in constant evolution and growth. This quality of interaction affects the awareness and perception that creates an individual reality for that system which, in turn leads to forming a personality that will characterize the subsequent communication and interaction of the system.
All energy systems of any kind are living entities and have their own personalities. We can only speak of living energy systems as part of a living universe. Everything in the universe from the atom, grain of sand, plants, humans, the solar system, up to the whole universe, has a personality of some sort that interacts within its own perception of time and space, as well as with other energy systems. Everything is alive and interconnected; as a poet once said, “you cannot pluck a flower without disturbing a distant star.”
