Supposing that the Tree of Life is a blue print for a Merkaba, I have been trying to figure a way of translating the format of the Tree into scientific terminology or definitions. If it was written in an encoded format, infused with religious idealology as a mask, what can be seperated and what would the components be relative to a scientific translation.
We know we are dealing with numerals and geometry. The numbers refering to Frequency, Co-ordinates in space, ???
The geometry referring to the shape of the components required to construct the Merkaba.
In pondering upon the Tree, I translated the Sephiroth into its hebrew form and numerical value...
1. Kether = KThR = 20 + 400 + 200 = 620
2. Chokmah = ChKMH = 8 + 20 + 40 + 5 = 73
3. Binah = BINH = 2 + 10 + 50 + 5 = 67 or if the N is (f) then N = 700 thus BINH = 717
4. Chesed = ChSD = 8 + 60 + 4 = 72
5. Geburah = GBVRH = 3 + 2 + 6 + 200 + 5 = 216
6. Tipareth = ThPARTh = 400 + 80 + 1 + 200 + 400 = 1081
7. Netzach = NTzCH = 700 + 90 + 8 = 798
8. Hod = HVD = 5 + 6 + 4 = 15
9. Yesod = ISVD = 10 + 60 + 6 + 4 = 80
10. Malkuth = MLKVTh = 40 + 30 + 20 + 6 + 400 = 496
Then compared to the definition of each of the Sephira, how would we relate this to modern scientific terms? Or how can we corelate the numerical values of each Sephira?
"""The First Sephira. The Number One. The Monad of Pythagoras. In this number are the other nine hidden. It is indivisible, it is also incapable of multiplication; divide 1 by itself and it still remains 1. Multiply 1 by itself and it is still 1 and unchanged. This number of unity has a twofold nature, and thus forms the link between the negative and positive. In its unchangeable one-ness it is scarcely a number; but in its property of capability of addition it may be called the first number of a numerical series.
The Zero, 0 , is incapable of even addition, just as also is negative existence.
How, then, if 1 can neither be multiplied nor divided, is another 1 to be obtained to add to it; in other words how is the number 2 to be found?
By reflection of itself! for though 0 is incapable of definition, 1 is definable. And the effect of a definition is to form a duplicate or image of the thing defined. Thus, we obtain a duad composed of 1 and its reflection. Now we also have the
commencement of a vibration established. The number 1 vibrates alternately from changelessness to definition, and back to changelessness again. Thus it has been called the Father of all things.""" ---The Kaballah Unveiled, S.L. MacGregor Mathers
Now, how can this be translated to modern terms? or deciphered as to exactly what is occuring from a scientific standpoint and a Merkaba?
"""The number 2, or the Duad. The name of the second Sephira is ChKMD, Chokmah, Wisdom, a
masculine active potency , reflected from Kether. This Sephira is the active and evident Father, to whom the Mother is united, who is the number 3. This second Sephira is represented by the Divine Names, IH, Yah, and IHVH; and among the angelic hosts by AVPNIM, Auphanium, the
Wheels ( Ezek i.). The secound Sephira is is also called AB, Ab, the Father."""
The Third Sephira, or Triad, is a feminine passive potency, called BINH, Binah, the Understanding, who is co-equal with Chokmah.
For Chokmah, the number 2 is like two straight lines which never enclose a space, and therefore it is powerless till the number 3 forms the triangle. Thus this Sephira completes and makes evident the supernal Trinity ( Space, Time, Mass?) It is also called AMA, Mother, and AIMA, the great productive Mother, who is eternally conjoined with AB, the Father.
I just wanted to touch on the first Three Spehiroth. This post would become quite lengthy if I touched upon all 10. I am hoping that this brings forth some inspiration from the other kabbalists posting within this thread.
Key words: Kabbalah - Tree of Life - Merkabah - Star of David - Sacred Geometry = SG = StarGate = Wheel of Karma - Wheels Wihtin Wheels - Alchemy Wheel which spirals cosciousenss back to source - Hub - spirals - twins - twins - encoded DNA
The merkaba are two star tetrahedrons - polarities - duality - male/female.
The Male Tetrahedron = Electrical Energy
The Female Tetrahedron = Magnetic Energy
Would all Ten Sephiroth be included to form the Tetrahedron's ? or are some left out of the equations in the attempt to create a workable blue-print from what data we have regarding The Tree of Life and The Kabballah?
Any revelations come to light Z or R ?
