Double Sequence, Sri Yantra and...

September 14, 2004

 

Elegant mathematics is at the roots of musical harmony...

 

It really started in the early '90s when I first realized the 24 repeating digits of the Fibonacci sequence (reduced to one digit) and intuitively felt that it was the base of something even more interesting. I didn't know what but I've always felt and realized in many ways that nature doesn’t waste 'harmony' for no reasons...

Considering all the studies being made every day on the Fibonacci sequence and all the correlations to nature's patterns discovered with it, I felt that it was only time that some interesting pattern and consequently association to one of nature’s patterns (laws) would be found with those twenty-four digits. Many times I played with those 24 numbers, trying to understand why would nature set them like that... just trying to understand more. But even after hours of playing with those numbers, nothing very interesting ever came up... still I would go back to it, sometimes even months later.

Then finally on the evening of March 3rd, 2006, while meditating upon it, laying on the bed, I had the idea (vision in my mind) to 'double' the sequence, but staggered like bricks (see home page).

I soon went to write the sequence on paper and saw that it was forming pairs of nines. I knew it couldn't be just a coincidence.I knew I was on to something. (I firmly believe that what I have discovered is just the tip of the iceberg of the possibilities that the double sequence offers). I will say more on this later and how I ended up with the Sri Yantra. Before that, I want to share the fascinating (at least for me) story connected to the Sri Yantra (and the sequence) that happened two years before the 'double sequence'.


On September 14, 2004 I was about to go to work. I was about half mile from my house when I suddenly realized that it was such a magnificent day. Perfect temperature, not cold not hot, not dry or humid… it felt just so nice that it was particularly noticeable. I decided that it was too nice to not to go back to my house and get the convertible sport car and go and have fun visiting friends and drive around the city.

To make a long story short I met, on a sidewalk next to where some friends own a business, a beautiful and intelligent girl. After about ten minutes of conversation she said she had an appointment in Starbucks (which was right few yards up on the same sidewalk) with a friend.

When she left I realized that I had not asked her phone number and I thought I had missed an opportunity to know someone that not only was very good looking and dressed very well but that she also seemed very smart, confident and wise for her age… I thought she could have been around 24-25 yrs old because of her personality and demeanor… even though she looked a bit younger (more on this later). So I went inside my friend’s business and stayed there for about 15 minutes then me and my friend started to walk outside again and right when we were on the threshold I saw Michelle (her name) again coming back from the Starbucks.

I asked her what happened with her friend and she said that they only wanted to have a coffee and spend few minutes together and now she was going home. We chatted for few more minutes. Finally, I asked her for her number and she gladly gave it to me. But for some reason I felt not happy to just let her go like that (I’m not usually like this…), so when she said she was going home, I asked her if I could take her with my car. She said she lived very close. I insisted… and again… and she accepted the ride. Note: again… this is not my usual behavior, for some reason everything was different that day...
Once in the car she told me that in the morning she had noticed how beautiful that day was and that even though she had a lot to study and work to do, she had decided to just walk around and enjoy the day. I was like ‘wow!’ that was exactly what I had thought this morning! So I told her that maybe we were meant to meet and I asked her if she wanted to drive around Boston and catch some sun (roof top open) and after some convincing, not much really… she gladly agreed.

An incredibly stimulating and beautiful conversation started. We talked for hours about everything. We talked about life, religions and philosophies, science, sex, travel around the world and also relationships. The amazing thing was that we were very much resonating with each other…it seemed magical. I have always been a person with many, many friends, especially when I was younger, and had all kinds of conversations with people from all walks of life and I’ve also traveled in many countries all over the world, meeting people from different cultures and traditions, but this was different...

We completed each others sentences like an old married couple. Our concepts of life and understanding of the human mind, heart and consciousness and how it relates to everything were right on the same. We fed off each other, expanding on the other’s concept. We both said several times, interrupting our conversation: ‘What is this? Have we been guided to meet? Who are you?? This can not just be a ‘coincidence’ we repeated this several times…

(Aren’t coincidences (randomness) but an order or a pattern of a higher ‘perspective’ or level of existence?).

After a couple of hours driving around, which seemed like a few minutes, we went to a restaurant she liked and wanted to go named ‘Buddha’s Delight’ in Chinatown. I was joking with her just before we got there that Chinatown wasn’t an easy area to find a parking spot but that I was famous amongst my friends (true) for finding parking spaces in Boston even in the busiest nights. But smiling, I told her that Chinatown wasn’t ‘my’ area so we shouldn’t expect to find a spot this time.. Matter of fact, things did not look good all the way to the restaurant. We didn’t find any parking spaces but when we drove by the restaurant I was amazed that there was just one spot available and it was right in front of the entrance! We looked at each and smiling we said ‘it was supposed to happen’.

We continued having great conversation while having our food and then finally I took her home.
When I left, I couldn’t believe the amazing experience I had lived. Everything seemed magical that day.
I said to myself ‘I will always remember this day’ (and it has been the only time that I can remember that I have ever wanted to remember a particular day).

It was September 14, 2004. I guess, as things turned out, it had to be made so special for me to get me to want to remember it.

I saw Michelle few more times and it was wonderful to see her each time. I was amazed by her intelligence and wisdom and last but not the least… her beauty… I was actually surprised that such a young and beautiful girl could like me the way she did…and she made sure I knew it. In our last phone conversation (which at the time I didn’t know it was the last) she, very warmly, amongst other things, told me… ‘You fascinate me’.

I guess that says it all… but…nonetheless, a few days after that call, practically about three weeks after meeting her the first time, I called her and left a message. She didn’t call me back. This went on for several days. I thought she needed some time by herself; I didn’t call her for a while. Then, when I called again, her phone was disconnected. I have never heard from her again. She disappeared as quickly as she appeared in my life.

 

 

Double Sequence, Sri Yantra and connecting links

First of all, I have to say, that if anyone had asked me, and many times I've been asked, what was ‘my personal’ number, my answer would have been, and of course still is, 14. Many, many times 14 has appeared connected to me throughout my life. My first ‘encounter with the number was when I was 7 years old I was sent to a boarding school in Italy. I was there for three years. We all had a number which was stitched on every item of clothes we possessed. My number was 14. Also, I can remember four or five times (years) that I was the fourteenth person in alphabetical order in my classrooms. Many other times 14 came up in my life and still does…

  • The day I met Michelle was 9-14-2004.
  • There are 9 main triangles interconnecting to form the Sri Yantra.
  • There are 9 inner triangles (besides the 9 major ones) in the Sri Yantra and there are 14 outer triangles.
  • The day the Oregon’s Sri Yantra was publicly announced was 9-14-1990.
  • On the day it was precisely14 years apart (1990-2004).
  • The numbers that form the double sequence are 24 (first sequence) and 12 (starting at half) of the second sequence; staggered as bricks. The result of this combination is that every pair adds up to 9.
  • The original Sri Yantra has 24 'deities' around the actual Sri Yantra graphic.
  • While at the restaurant in Chinatown, Michelle told me she was 21 years old (I know… I thought at least 25 … but really… there was something about her that felt… ancient, not her looks of course...smile).
  • My age was 42 in 2004.
  • She was born Jan 25, 1983 (11 in numerology, 11 being a master number its not reduced in numerology... just like 22).
  • I was born in Jan of 1962 (3 in numerology), another 14 (11+3=14). Also, if we reduce 14 we have 5. ["The number 5 makes a bridge between man’s physical being and the archetypal mystery of numbers…five has a magical quality: when you square it, it always returns upon itself. For this reason, the ancients called it a spherical number and thought of it as connected with infinity…it has been said that the first four numbers represents principles of reality, whereas the number five stands for ultmiate reality." (Sallie Nichols, "Jung and Tarot: An Archetypal Journey," Samuel Weiser, Inc., 1984: 126]. Number 5 and Golden Ratio check 'http://goldennumber.net/five(5).htm'. Much more you can google on number 5. Too much to include here.
  • The numbers of our age were 42 and 21.
  • They are the mirror image of 24 and 12.
  • Our names Michael and Michele are the male and female names of the same root name. Our names are of 14 letters 7+7).
  • A human face has 14 bones (8 for the cranium; equals 22 for the whole head)
  • The location (dry lake) in Oregon where the Sri Yantra was formed is called Mickey Basin.
  • Mickey same root name as Michael (location very close to Mickey’s Springs)
  • The Oregon’s Sri Yantra is (almost) 14 miles of lines and ¼ miles across.
  • The day I’ve discovered the sequence was 3-3-2006 that equals 14 (3+3+2+6=14).
  • September 14 is the 257th day of the year. If we sum 2+5+7 we total 14.
  • After September 14 to the end of the year there are 108 days… very important number in India (origin of Sri Yantra).
  • Even more! I've found out, through the website 'www.goldennumber.net.Number89.htm' (and you'll find more there), that the number 109 (including to the count 9-14 date itself to the 108), has an amazing property associating it yet again to the Fibonacci sequence. What's up with this 9-14!!

    The reciprocal of 109 is also based on the Fibonacci series, forwards and backwards

    Here's another curiousity involving the number 109, discovered and contributed (10/20/2003) by Rick Toews.

    1/109 is a repeating decimal fraction with 108 characters:

    .009174311926605504587155963302752293577981651376146788
    990825688073394495412844036697247706422018348623853211

    You can see the beginning of the Fibonacci sequence in the LAST 6 digits of the decimal equivalent of 1/109, appearing in REVERSE order starting from the END of the decimal. (i.e., 0,1,1,2,3,5, 8 appears as ...853211)

    If you take each Fibonacci number, divide it by 10 raised to the power of 109 MINUS its position in the Fibonacci sequence (starting with 0) and add them all together, you get the reciprocal of 109.

    It is interesting that my age was 42 when I met Michelle on 9-14-2004 but I ‘discovered’ the double sequence when I was 44. Now, there is a difference in the numbers of triangles (including bindu) of the Sri Yantra compared to the Fibonacci created one.
    The difference being 42 and 44, just a coincidence? Any special meaning?
  • The latitude of the Oregon's Sri Yantra is 42°44' N, isn't it another incredible coincidence? I was born and live on coordinates 42°22' N and 70°58' W.
  • The Sri Yantra longitude is 118°18' W. So we have same latitude (42°N) and the difference longitude (118-70) is 48° ; 24 (sequence) X 2, double sequence?? (There are 118 elements in the 'Standard Periodic Table' and there are 18 groups).
  • There are very interesting studies made connecting the Sri Yantra to the Giza Pyramid (I will not repeat at this time). I have found something connecting in some way the numbers 42 and 44 to the pyramid. Here is an excerpt that I found: 'Although the full length of the Pyramid's flat floor top was 44 feet, it contained a calculation matrix within that area for accurate fixing of stellar positions. The way in which the size of the working matrix was determined was to make it a direct ratio to the base. The length of the top floor calculation matrix was configured to be 1/18th (Oregon's Sri Yantra longitude 118°) of the base length of the Pyramid. This could be translated equally into an area ratio, with the top area being 1/324th of the base area. With the base length set at 756 feet, the length of the calculation matrix at the top was 42 feet per side. Both the length of this matrix and the exact vertical height of the altar floor, were determined by 6 PHI reductions of the base length, according to its assigned PHI value.' For more details please go to: http://www.celticnz.co.nz/US3.html.
  • Curiosities: The latitude of the famous Rennes Le Chateau is also 42°55' N [So we have 42°55' N, 42°44' N and 42°22' N; I wonder what's on 42°33' N! :)]
  • The number 42 and 9 are very peculiar numbers with lots of rare properties compared to other numbers. There are many websites that detail the extraordinary ‘qualities’ of these two numbers.

Is it a coincidence that right after I had designed the graphic on the excel sheet I stumbled upon a website that had the Sri Yantra on it…? (The Sri Yantra clearly resembled the central area of the excel graphic from line 7 to 19). I was researching ‘math’ websites for the sequence but I ‘accidentally’ went to a Sacred Geometry site, which in turn happened to open on the Sri Yantra image (shown below).

It definitely makes you wonder: what is the intelligence that in some ways ‘orchestrates’ all these ‘synchronicities and coincidences’? Is there a really important value or message for us to discover through the double sequence and the Sri Yantra? Why would ‘universe’s intelligence’ (I’m trying to be as ‘general’ as possible) orchestrate such a complicated set of situations and coincidences if there wasn’t an enough good reason for it? Is there something important for us to discover through those simple numbers that can help in physics or biology or both? (in the end everything is connected).

Also, these events make me wonder… where our ‘personal’ choices end to make room to a ‘universal’ one? Are we always choosing by ourselves our path or is there a level of reality that is interfering (helping?) with our choices? Many traditions of thought say that the ‘other level’ is none other than ‘us’… The ‘I AM’, which is in all of us and through IT ...we are all ONE …

Namaste

Oregon's Sri Yantra

The area is called Mickey Basin. It was announced to the public on September 14, 2004.

Below is another picture, found on the internet, taken from 12,000 feet.
