1 - About The BOOK of MAGIC SQUARES, Vol 2
This
book contains 161 photocopied pages, is hand-written, highly illustrated, the book
is a golden rectangle but fitted or orientated to A4 landscape , and
wire bound.
Self Published in 1996 First Edition
ISBN: 0 9594180 6 7
This book
continues from where Book 1 finishes and consists of the Magic Squares of 8, 9,
10 and 11. There is a whole chapter (Chapter 8) and a dedication to Benjamin
Franklin's Magic Square of 8 x 8.
Of the 1,000 and more patterns I have constructed, I believe this to be the
most harmonically and mathematically exceptional of all. For this reason, there
is a window decal based upon this Magic Square of 8 x 8 (see Decals).
Chapter 9 includes a detailed account of the Indian Yantras or Power Diagrams
symbolized by the 9 interlaced triangles of the Sri or Shri Yantra or Shri
Chakra. The 9 triangles represent the 9 aspects of the divine feminine, like
Shakti, Durga, Kali etc. In Sacred Geometry, it is helpful to visualize the 9
triangles as 9 inter-penetrating pyramids or tetrahedrons.
THE BACK COVER BLURB: (written in 1996)
* (This book is about the
translation of Number into Art).
The Atomic Art of Magic Squares.
* This is a unique and
original activity book, a draw-your-own mandala coloring-in pad book, just by
drawing Dot-To-Dot.
The definition of a Magic Square is that the sum of its columns, rows and
diagonals are equal.
* The Source and Centre
of the Tibetan Calendar and Cosmology is the ancient Magic Square of 3x3. Its
Constant or magic Sum is 15 is numerologically a Name of the Lord, as are all
magic Squares. By joining 1 to 2 to 3 etc to the last number, certain
crystalline patterns or Yantras are created. Like spirograph, the pattern may
be repeated or rotated upon itself at any chosen angle, usually at 90 degrees.
And viola, Maths becomes Art, Science, History. Magic Squares have become a
symbol that unites many Cultures, eg: The Dead Sea Scrolls translated revealed
Essene/Christian bibles steeped with magic Square Parables on the divine
Kingdom (though there is some controversy about the true Source of this old
scriptures).
* This subject crosses
the K.L.A.s or Key Learning Areas essential for modern education. In this book,
any 10 year old child or adult may create sacred symbols by tuning into these
Magic Square Codes or Harmonics. Upon the lattice of dots given, you will
discover how M.Sqs. create Swaztikas, Stars of Solomon, Maltese Crosses,
Christian Crosses. When viewed 3-Dimensionally, the M.Sq. of 3 Yantram
producing the Seal or Star of Solomon, is really the Star Tetrahedron, which is
our MerKaBah or Spiritual Light Vehicle or Time Space Capsule. It is also the
atomic structure of Beryllium, Salt, Silicon, etc.
* There is a whole
chapter based upon the Multiplication Table, that we all know, but never
realized that it is a window into the true atomic structure of Rutile and
Platinum Crystal. These re-discoveries exist in no other book. It is vital that
your children are exposed to these archetypes of Lost Knowledge.
* Certain M.Sq. Artforms
like the Swaztika and Star of David may offend certain readers. Rather, the
purpose is to present the Unity of all cultures and acknowledge their common
foundation of spiritual / galactic mathematics. Both these symbols are derived
from the M.Sq. of 3x3, the original and primal vibration of Equality, of Order amidst
Chaos, and of Unity amidst Division.
* "The Book Of
Harmony Squares" Vol 1, published in 1990, explored Magic Squares of 3, 4,
5, 6, 7. This compendium: "The Book Of Harmony Squares" Vol 2
explores M. Sqs. of 8, 9, 10 + the Multiplication Table will be dealt with in
full in Volume 3.
* May this book bring
Healing and or Rememberance of your omnipotent and omnisicient Selves.
* This Resource Book is
a gold mine for all Graphic Artists.
