The Tree of Life

In Joy there is Love,
In Love there is Life,
In Life Enjoy Love;-)

I especially love to study the primary patterns, natural systems, and recurring themes of life and the universe. If you are somewhat familiar with the basic concepts of the Kabalah, &/or, at least have an open mind to new approaches to old ideas, then perhaps you will be able appreciate this meager demonstration of how to construct a Harmonious Tree of Life.

I hope that you will enjoy entertaining some of the various notions that I have presented pertaining to a possible New Universal approach to the Tree of Life. This study focuses on a particular geometrical pattern. This may seem overly analytical for some and overly simplistic for others, but for me it's just like playing with an octave of notes.

I am not one who likes to entertain the notion that somehow spiritual studies are antithetic to scientific studies. How soon we forget that mathematics was considered an esoteric language for most of its long and sorted history and that science was part of the sacred arts for the bulk of human history.

It has only been relatively recently that we have come to not only separate the sacred from the solid sciences, but to assume that they are somehow at odds with each other: Right Brain v. Left Brain.  This to me is both laudable and sad; especially in a time when science entertains Theories of Everything and the 'religious' no longer persecute the independently inquisitive types. I can only hope that these highly  destructive attitudes towards the diversity of individuality will ultimately play themselves out: For they are only the chaotic prelude to a much greater unification of mankind. The shattered vessel is but the prelude to the construction of a new vessel. And the making of this new vessel will need the use of both left and right Brains working as a single Whole Brain.

Live, Listen, Learn to Love Life
