Hi everyone;

I noticed from the Tao diagrams from Nobody's URL, that when you look at the static diagram of the two circles in the larger circle, that it could represent infinity ( the two smaller circles ), within eternity, ( the big circle ).

I also want to report on my sucess with using the I Ching on divination.
I've been using the I Ching for that purpose for some years now.
Usually its somewhat vague like a horoscope, but the advice is always filled with wisdom.
One time I used it and it said my horse was stolen.
Two hours later the police called me to tell my car had been stolen and where my car was at.

Something to think about.

Dear Prof Pat:
I can't find the post I'm referencing, but you were mentioning the Michelson Morley experiment and the null results on a conducting 'aether' for light vehcularization.

Several hypotheses have brought a conducting quallity back to 'empty space'. Electromagnetism itself permeates all of space, so it doesn't seem reasonable to call it 'empty', as to how space 'conducts' signals, that's a controversial issue.

'Quntessence' and 'dark matter' are related to this issue, though, exactly how is also controversial.

Is this response germane to what you posted (I can't find it)?

- Best regards,
RP

Thank you RP;

You are at the right thread, I think it was page 2 of this thread that I asked the question.

And you'll be happy to know, after a little research I did, that Einstein agreed with you in his later days. He revisited the ether problem and he too concluded that space had electromagnetic fields and gravitational fields throughout. Not quite the original ether concept, but it makes more sense,
and I can understand it.

In fact, probably the only really empty thing in this universe is inside my brain.

BTW have you looked at the thread Theory on a T shirt? Austin did an excellent graphic of your opposing gears being the foundation behind the Tao symbol. I asked him to transport a copy to our parallel universe site.

One picture is worth 10,000 words.

Best to you RP,

Pat

Hi everyone;

I thought I would introduce the Ankh, into the thread if RP doesn't mind.

A little preliminary research to digest first:
Ankh : The Original Cross


The Ankh is defined as: The symbolic representation of both Physical and Eternal life. It is known as the original cross, which is a powerful symbol that was first created by Africans in Ancient Egypt.
The Ankh is commonly known to mean life in the language of Ancient Kemet (land of the Blacks) renamed Egypt by the Greeks. It is also a symbol for the power to give and sustain life, the Ankh is typically associated with material things such as water(which was believed by Egyptians to regenerate life), air, sun, as well as with the Gods, who are frequently pictured carrying an Ankh. The Egyptian king is often associated with the Ankh also, either in possession of an Ankh (providing life to his people) or being given an Ankh (or stream of Ankhs) by the Gods. This can be seen in the picture of King Senworsert below who is holding two Ankhs to his chest. There are numerous examples that have been found that were made from metal, clay and wood. It is usually worn as an amulet to extent the life of living and placed on the mummy to energize the resurrected spirit. The Gods and the Kings are often shown carrying the Ankh to distinguish them from mere mortals. The Ankh symbolized eternal life and bestowed immortality on anyone who possessed it. It is believed that life energy emanating from the Ankh can be absorbed by anyone within a certain proximity. An Ankh serves as an antenna or conduit for the divine power of life that permeates the universe. The amulet is a powerful talisman that provides the wearer with protection from the evil forces of decay and degeneration.
The loop of the Ankh is held by the Gods. It is associated with Isis and Osiris in the Early Dynastic Period. The Loop of the Anhk also represent the feminine discipline or the (Womb), while the elongated section represent the masculine discipline or the (Penis). These two sacred units then come together and form life. Because of its powerful appeal, the Ankh was used in various religious and cultural rituals involving royalty. In the Treasures of Tutankhumun, the Ankh was a major artifact found in the tomb. The circle symbolizes eternal life and the cross below it represents the material plane. The Ankh is called the "Crux Ansata," it is of Egyptian origin and can be traced to the Early Dynastic Period, appearing frequently in artwork of various material and in relief, depicting the Gods.
It is usually held to the nose of the deceased king by the Gods to represent the breath of life given in the after-world. The Ankh also resembles a key and is considered the key to eternal life after death. Its influence was felt in every dynastic period and survives as an icon possessing mystical power throughout the Coptic Christian era. The Ankh possessed by each God had power associated with that God. The Ankh of the God Anubis (shown in the picture to the right) is related to the protection of the dead, that of Sekmet, War, Hapi related to the living waters of the Nile and Amen, the spirit God, the breath of life.

That's interesting but the original Christian cross that I am aware of is just an X, then it somehow reverted back to that symbol. This graveyard is as old as St. Paul, and it's one of the first Christian churches. Have you ever seen this X symbol or know how this came to be?

[RascalPuff]

To some heraldic scholars, it represents a refined geometric expression of the cross formy, or croix pattée. To others, it is an evolution of the cross potent identified with the Kingdom of Jerusalem. Though its origins are still debated today, the beautiful geometric symbol that came to represent Christianity's oldest order of chivalry may have been an Arabic motif rooted in Muslim mysticism. As can be seen in this geometric construction, its angles and lines might represent a star as well as a cross. The design appears in Saracen and Moorish architecture throughout the Arab world, in structures that antedate by centuries the foundation of the Order of the Hospital. The symmetrical "Maltese Cross" is seen in ancient mosques in Jerusalem, Damascus and Baghdad. One of its earliest architectural uses in Europe was in Sicily, where it appears as a repeating motif in the splendid cloister courtyard of Monreale Abbey, built during the reign of a twelfth-century Norman King of Sicily, William II. (Henry II's daughter, Joan, wed the Sicilian sovereign in 1177, and the church's English legacy is represented in its mosaic icon of Thomas Becket.) The octagonal cross's appearance in the cloister is not surprising if one remembers that Monreale's artisans and architects were Saracen Arabs and Byzantine Greeks. By the thirteenth century, the Cross of Malta was a common heraldic symbol in England, France, Germany and Poland.

Neato RascalPuff, there is even a star trek symbol in there! I don't know what Muslim mysticism would have to do with it since that all came after, unless there is something I don't know about it. I thought it came from Judaism because that church is in the village that my husband comes from, he was the first generation born out in the city so the tradition with the last name stopped with him. His family kept the Jewish tradition of a new last name for every child born, it would come from his fathers first name, so my husbands last name is from his grandfathers first name since they moved into the city and people look down on you if you keep the village traditions.
