Talk links God to patterns in nature like Fractals, Fibonacci, the Golden Triangle and motifs and patterns humans notice and incorporate into their lives.
St Augustine laid the foundations for the doctrine of Hell in his epic tome the City of God. But did he get it right? Tony gives a penetrating diagnosis of where Augustine's thinking had 'code errors' that distorted the gospel and predisposed him to the idea of hell as never ending torment. Unfortunately the church of Rome validated his thinking and excluded the broader eschatology that we are now beginning to realise was the orthodoxy of the Patristic Fathers.
Hope and Hell - talk 1 - Is 'hell' the answer to the wrong question?Gospel Conversations
Hell is the question we all avoid but it is the corollary of hope. How do we fit the two together? Is the traditional model of hell right? Or scriptural? Could everyone get saved in the end? Tony begins to address these vexed questions by first examining the landscape of the debate - the language and assumptions, the possibilities, the history and the problems of all the usual positions. He ends by suggesting a better question to frame our thinking.

Physics and Indian Spiritual Tradition - Giulio Prisco.pdfGiulio Prisco
This document discusses the relationship between physics and Indian spiritual traditions. It begins by discussing different concepts of divinity and the afterlife in Western and Eastern religions. It then discusses how some modern physics concepts like the simulation hypothesis and quantum entanglement relate to ideas in Hinduism like reincarnation and the Akashic records. The document explores how cellular automata could be used to model fundamental physics and reality. It suggests that quantum field theory and theories of quantum matter indicate physics may be approaching concepts from ancient Eastern traditions.
THE CYCLES OF DIVINE CREATION & THE UNIVERSAL MATHEMATICAL MATRIXWilliam John Meegan
This article is about a system of Astrological Cycles: i.e. Cycles of Divine Creation, I discovered through meditation on the Judeao Christian Scriptures in the first and second chapters of Genesis initiated in January 1977. Over the past thirty-eight years, off and on, I have been working to put a conceptual understanding to these cycles. Finally, this article goes back to the genesis of my discovery up to the present article.
The document discusses the hidden nature of truth and the importance of paying attention and looking closely. It references God sending messengers over the years, especially the last seven years, to prepare people. It encourages reading ancient scrolls now available online. It suggests truth is hidden in plain sight through symbols like the number 1.618 and references to Egyptian gods and wisdom from the Holy Spirit and Bible verses.
Mathematics is evident everywhere in nature and is an integral part of our lives. It is the science of patterns, quantities and relationships. The document discusses several examples of patterns in nature like geometric shapes, symmetry, the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio that are all deeply rooted in mathematics. It also elaborates on the importance and applications of mathematics in fields like science, technology, medicine and more, establishing it as an indispensable and universal language.

This is a study of Jesus saying that He did not know. He knew not the time of His return to earth. Only the Father knew these exact dates of His Coming Again.
Does God Exist? A question that even atheists spend a lot of time on, having concluded already that there is no God. Hava look at the framework of a lesson I put togther to explore the question.
1. Jesus stated that no one knows the exact day or hour of his return, not even angels or himself, but only God the Father.
2. This statement shows Jesus' humility and limitations as a human, despite his divine nature. It also emphasizes God's sovereignty over future events.
3. Jesus' words will endure forever because they are rooted in eternal truth and God's immutable purposes, even if earthly powers and kingdoms pass away.
The document discusses arguments for and against the existence of God from a rational perspective. It argues that everything in the universe is finite and limited, so something unlimited must have created all finite things. While science can explain processes within the universe, it cannot prove or disprove why the universe exists in the first place or what created it, as these questions are beyond its scope. The document also notes that characterizing God with human attributes is an imperfect attempt to understand the divine. In the end, it poses the question of whether God is a myth or a rational concept as still open to debate.

PRECESSION OF THE EQUINOXES: How the Ancient Astrologers learn of itWilliam John Meegan
The document discusses how ancient astrologers could have learned about the precession of the equinoxes through observation and symbolic/iconographic thinking rather than just literal observation. It introduces the concept of the "Matrix of Wisdom," a symbolic representation of the soul and psyche that is said to be the foundation for many religious and esoteric traditions. Calculations based on coloring and numbering cells in the Matrix of Wisdom produce values close to half and the full precession of the equinoxes cycle, suggesting this was how ancient astrologers envisioned and calculated the precession.

The document summarizes Primo Levi's memoir "If This Is a Man", which details his experience as a prisoner in the Auschwitz concentration camp during World War II. It describes the black and white cover photo depicting three bald men in striped prisoner uniforms. The photo symbolizes the prisoners' bleak existence where it was either death or mere survival with no emotions shown on their blank faces. The dull mustard color used may represent Jews, Nazis or the horrific ideas they were forced to consider. The title font resembles the print of tattoos placed on prisoners registered in concentration camps.
This document attempts to summarize and explain the concept of chaos theory through Kabbalistic teachings. It discusses how chaos exists in the world despite the presence of light, due to universal laws like "bread of shame" and "no coercion in spirituality." According to Kabbalah, chaos arises when light withdraws to avoid overwhelming creation, allowing darkness to settle. True understanding requires exploring the immaterial realm beyond just the physical. Spirituality refers to connecting to the creator through free will, not coercion. Overall the document uses Kabbalistic concepts to provide a metaphysical perspective on chaos theory.

The document discusses several works of art including a bronze sculpture of Shiva as Nataraja from 1000 CE, Vincent van Gogh's Starry Night from 1889, and Juan de Valdés Leal's Vanitas painting from 1672. It explains that visual perception is subjective and influenced by factors like personal experience, culture, and knowledge. Works of art can mean different things to different people and our understanding can change over time as we learn more. The document emphasizes close observation of details in works of art to understand the artist's message.
ARCANA TAROT CARDS and ASTROLOGY have absolutely nothing to do with Fortune T...William John Meegan
This paper illustrates how the Major Arcana Tarot Cards are aligned to the three Mother letters, seven Double letters, and twelve single letters that structures the GRA Kabbalistic Tree of Life. This paper also illustrates how the twelve signs of Astrology are aligned to the cerebral lobes of the brain.
1) The document discusses how Fibonacci numbers and the golden ratio appear throughout nature, such as in phyllotaxis, DNA, galaxies, and other patterns. It also discusses how these ratios have been used in art, architecture, music, and financial markets.
2) The document provides 10 prayers for the First Baptist Church of Jackson, including prayers for revival, spiritual leaders, mission projects, and specific needs of the church.
3) The Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio reveal the design and order in nature, which points to the existence and attributes of God as the creator.
Mathematics is present all around us in nature. The chapter discusses several mathematical patterns that exist in the natural world such as sequences like the Fibonacci sequence, symmetries, fractals, and tessellations. Specific examples of each pattern are provided like the spiral patterns of pinecones and sunflowers following the Fibonacci sequence. Symmetries can be seen in structures like zebra stripes. Fractals exhibit self-similarity and can be seen in shapes like ferns and coastlines. Hexagonal tessellation is an efficient pattern used by honeybees to construct their hives. Nature demonstrates optimization of forms through mathematical regularities.
This document discusses different Christian perspectives on the problem of evil. It is divided into 5 camps:
1) God is not all-knowing or evil came from free will.
2) God is not all-powerful or evil resulted from sin.
3) God allows evil for morally sufficient reasons like justice, free will, or soul-making.
4) Evil does not truly exist but is the absence of good.
5) Evil exists in the human mind due to concepts like pride, fear, and dehumanization.
The document examines views from thinkers like Augustine, Calvin, Aquinas and explores how beliefs about evil can influence perceptions of danger and punishment. In the end, the author

Hollywood films often take creative liberties with historical events for dramatic purposes that may distort or oversimplify what actually happened. Movies need to condense complex events into a digestible narrative over a few hours, whereas historians have more time to analyze the nuances and complexities of history. While films can introduce audiences to interesting periods of history, their primary goal is entertainment rather than accurate historical documentation.

Muladhara is the root centre of physical experience, located at the base of the spine, the sacral plexus. The square represents the earth itself, the four dimensions and the four directions. Four allows for completion, and earth embodies the elements and conditions for human completion on all levels.
Muladhara Chakra is the meeting place of the three main nadis: Ida, Pingala and Sushumna. The downward-pointing triangle indicates the downward movement of energy and the three main nadis.
The seed mantra is Lam, the yellow square represents the earth element. The Muladhara chakra governs the vital breath Apana. An inverted triangle in the centre of the square encloses the unmanifest Kundalini, represented as a snake wrapped in three and a half coils around the svayambhu (self born) linga. Because her mouth faces downward, the flow of energy is downward.
The opening at the entrance of the sushumna is called brahma-dvara, the door of Brahma, which is closed by the coils of the sleeping Kundalini. As soon as one begins working with Muladhara chakra, this dormant energy awakens, raises its head and flows freely into the channel of Sushumna, the central nerve canal that runs along the spine. These two aspects of the kundalini: sleeping and waking, are identified as her “poison” and her “nectar.” The kundalini is poison when she remains asleep in the lower abdomen; she is nectar when she rises up through Sushumna, the medial channel, to reunite with Siva, the Absolute, in the yogin’s cranial vault.
In the pericarp is found the presiding deity Brahma, the lord of creation. His skin is the color of wheat, he wears a yellow dhoti and a green scarf. Brahma is four-faced, four-armed, holding in his upper left hand a lotus flower, the symbol of purity.
Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...Cometan
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.

PHASE-IV
The very deep experience of silence helps to expand from the 3 - dimensional awareness of the body to all pervasive awareness. The bed of silence becomes deeper and more expansive - an ocean of silence with waves on it merge into complete silence called Ajapa state of the mind. This silence is the source of Creativity, Power, Knowledge and Bliss.
PHASE V
From this deep ocean of silence in the heart region, let one OM emerge as an audible sound which diffuses into the entire body and the space all around. Enjoy the beautiful vibrations.
Blink the eyes slowly, gently open the eyes and come out of meditation.

Patterns of god talk 12 9-18
1. Re
Nobody likes to think they are in a box. But we can’t help being
limited by our perceptions. If our perceptions are very rigid we
tend to feel the need to define and explain everything including
God Himself. Eventually we run up against something that doesn’t
fit in our box. Then we have to decide whether or not we want to
remain in the security of the box we know to expose ourselves to
something bigger.
THE
PATTERNS
OF GOD
2. “I want to talk to you about the One you already worship
without full knowledge.
The Lord of heaven and earth does not live in shrines
you can make and is not served by human hands as if
He needs anything.
He gives all life, and breath, and every thing.
From one he made from one every ethnicity and
appointed time and boundaries to them so that they
would seek God, perhaps, grope for Him
and find that he is not far from each one of us.
For in Him we live and move and exist.” - Paul, Acts 17
3. Paul pushed on the sides of the box when he explained the Unknown God to the Greeks in
Athens.
Our appointed time and boundaries are not the box. It’s when we shed the box that we find
ourselves groping for Him in the vast expanse of what we do not know.
Patterns and rhythms of life that are part of living and moving and having our being in Him.
These patterns are not nearly as defined as the reality our perceptions create for us from
inside our boxes. These patterns are instead the eternity in our hearts spoken of in
Ecclesiastes, the easy yoke we enjoy with Jesus, the mind of Christ that we have been gifted.
4. Fractals – recurring patterns in nature
A fractal is a neverending pattern that repeat on different scales.
In nature and in math. If you start by drawing a stick tree, then spit it into two branches, then draw
two more branches at the ends of each of those two.
Consider the idea of the infinitely recurring image of God branching and branching into all of
humanity. Infinitely recurring expressions of the nature of God recurring throughout different aspects
of our experiences.
He has set eternity in the human heart
Yet we have not found out
what God has done
from beginning to end. Ecc. 3:11
5. Chambered nautilus
seashell
Romnesco broccoli Air bubbles
DNA GalaxySnow melt channels
The point is that from DNA to galaxies there is replication in the patterns
of existence. When you start noticing this as you walk around and look
God seems to be everywhere all the time.
Not only does nature replicate these patterns, so do humans.
7. Japanese Pagoda
Hindu Temple
Village Layout in Cameroon
Cathedral of Milan
Ancient architecture, modern architecture,
even the layout of some villages in Africa,
constructed over many generations without
anybody being in charge, form an intricate
fractal pattern as a whole.
What's amazing is that humans recognized
this pattern intuitively long before
Mandelbrot came up with equations to
describe fractals in 1979.
8. Katsushika Hokusai
The Great Wave Off Kanagawa
1820
Leonardo da Vinci
The Vitruvian Man
1490
Long before Mandelbrot described fractals in nature in 1979
artists were incorporating the concept in design.
9. Ever since the creation of the world God’s invisible attributes,
eternal power, and
divine nature have been seen,
and understood
through what has been made by God.
Rom. 1:20
10. 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144
God expresses Himself and we notice.
The Fibonacci Sequence is another recurring pattern in nature.
We find it in the structure of our hearts, hands and stature and in the Mandelbrot mathematical set
that describes Fractals.
Back to the tree branches.
Every number in the Fibonacci sequence is the sum of the two previous numbers.
Trees branches grow according to the Fibonacci sequence.
The generations of bees as they reproduce by generations follow the Fibonacci sequence.
Because the sequence of numbers grows exponentially fast the sequence is used in programming
algorithms.
11. THE GOLDEN RATIO=1.618….
The ratio of the length A - B to the long part B - C
Equals the ratio of the long part to the entire segment of the line
The Golden Ratio, yet another recurring phenomenon that has to do with
proportions.
We find the golden ratio on a line segment by dividing the line so that
the whole length divided by the long part is equal to the long part divided by
the short part.
It’s also expressed using the Greek letter Phi.
Take your height measurement. Measure the distance from the top of your
head to where your fingertips end in a straight vertical line, not angled, then
take a ratio of those two measurements chances are it’s very close to 1.6.
The more people we measure, the closer to this ratio the average will be.
Humans are built according to the Golden Ratio
12. A Golden Rectangle is a rectangle in which the ratio of the length to the
width is the Golden Ratio.
The more Fibonacci you go on the rectangle the closer to the Golden Ratio you get.
13. When you put these proportions into rectangles with smaller squares inside them and keep dividing
them by the same pattern - like a fractal - These Golden Ratio or Fibonacci spirals appears in a
spiral that shows up all over nature. In galaxies, DNA, sunflowers, weather patterns, pineapples,
seahorse tails, nautilus shells
The ratio of width to length of a single double helix in a strand of DNA is 1.619, pretty close.
This universal constant of design
assures the beauty and unity of creation
so that things grow proportionately.
Another cool thing,
when we take any two successive
(one after the other) Fibonacci Numbers,
their ratio is very close
to the Golden Ratio of 1.61803
The golden ratio applies to these
natural phenomena which adhere
to fractal patterns.
Look at this picture itself.
Notice how the design breaks into
thirds horizontally and vertically.
14. In art there is a rule of thirds that which is a
guideline for design in art, architecture and
photography. As laymen, We look at a
picture or a design and don't know exactly
why it works but we know it's pleasing to
look at.
Important objects often appear on the grid
lines. or centered in one of the boxes.
This is why that grid pops up when you go
in to edit your photos on your phone.
In addition to the rule of thirds, artists use
the golden ratio as another pattern in
design. Both produce interesting and
pleasing compositions. It may be that
humans are genetically programmed to
respond to this ratio in the world around us.
Think about the pattern of God's own
existence and nature. Trinity.

16. The Rule of 3
The rule of three is used in storytelling and communication too.
For whatever reason we tend to be able remember and repeat things that are presented in threes.
Fairy tales, jokes, stories, parables all use threes.
Preachers and public speakers are taught to use a 3 point outline in speeches.
Plays are divided into three acts.
Musical chords have three notes.
Threes happen in many mediums we use to communicate ideas.
Pattern is the way of the Trinity.
A priest, a Levite
and a Samaritan
walk into a bar…
17. The Son is the image of the invisible God,
the firstborn over all creation.
For in him all things were created: things
in heaven and on earth,
visible and invisible…
He is before all things,
and in him all things hold together.
Col. 1:20
18. Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that
when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is 1 Jn. 3:2
I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected into one that the world may know that You sent
me and love them as You love Me. Jn 17:23
The Golden Ratio is showing up in the Quantum Physics model relating to time while Fibonacci
relates to quantum entanglements. The patterns are there in the hidden, mysterious, emerging
universe that is quantum, that is grace as we now understand it.
This is just one of the mysteries emerging from the mind of God for us to grasp for.
ENTANGLEMENT
19. We all, with unveiled faces, beholding as in
a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being
transformed into the same image from
glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord
2 Cor. 3:18
The Nautilus grows, and as it grows,
its shell grows proportionally so that
no matter how large the nautilus becomes, the shell will always be the
same shape. It will always have the same mathematical proportions. It will
always adhere to the golden ratio. And yet it doesn't live in a static box but
in a container that grows with it.
Scientists discover patterns and concepts they don't invent them. Science
is observation of patterns and structures in nature and experimenting to
see if these patterns are regular enough to predict recurrence.
Math is a human invention, the language that we use to describe the
structures, principles and patterns we discover. All mathematical models
are approximations of reality. Our models fail, they go through a process of
revision, and we invent new mathematics as needed. We can look at
science and math from inside the box or from inside the shell.
20. The more we insist on boxes, the more definitions we write on the sides,
the more we confine our thoughts to what we already know and already think
we can prove the less wonder we experience.
Jesus does not come to exhaust the revelation of who and what God is
but he is the introduction into an ever unfolding revelation,
and ever unfolding experience that is larger than ourselves.
If Jesus is indeed the self-revelation of God,
then He is also the end of our concepts about God.
He is the icon that eliminates our idols,
our abstract theories with which we try to define the infinite and confine the limitle
- Andre Rabb
21. Belief is full of wonder. Belief includes what we know and what we do not
know. Faith is the substance of things hoped for and evidence of things not
seen. Faith is not proof or certainty. It's belief. It's trust. It’s grasping into the
unknown.
We grow in the spaces between our certainties. We have the mind of Christ
when our minds are flexible enough to discover wonders and recognize
patterns, when we leave our boxes for faith containers that grow with our
ever-expanding perceptions and expressions of God.
