Sacred Geometry are the archetypal shapes of cosmic manifestation.
The Origins of Sacred Geometry
When the divine creative force (God) expands the material phenomena from its abstract state (pralaya) to its manifested state (maya)--the foundation of it is geometry: circles, squares, triangles, hendecagrams, etc. Shapes that are not man made, but are primordial archetypes that are the underlying framework for the material universe we see, touch and experience with our five senses.
The qualities of the shapes are the cores and essences of all material things. They are in perfect symmetry, balance, charge and have frequencies.
The core of Within The Portal Blueprints is in sacred geometry, a service that maps out the material unfolding of each major phase of your life. The Pythagorean Theorem is what your WTP blueprint is formed upon--a cosmic shape that is perfect. A metaphysical shape that contains doorways and windows into the layers of your reality.
The Sum is Greater Than its Parts
Like Pi (π), the Pythagorean Theorem is an infinite mathematical calculation that unravels the structure of the material manifestation.
It is based on the Right Triangle and states that:
“The area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides."
This theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths of the sides a, b and c, often called the "Pythagorean equation."
Which to me means, “gobbledygook, gobbledygook gobbledy, gobbledy gobbledygook.” And for you other non-egghead mystics, Pythagoras’ theorem gives us the material blueprint which existence is framed upon.
God Geometrizes
0. The CIRCLE: No beginning nor ending. “God is an intelligible sphere, whose center is everywhere, and whose circumference is nowhere.” (Alain of Lille). The ZERO or CIRCLE is perfect, infinite and eternal. Value of ZERO.
1. The POINT: Abstract manifestation, the point is “spot” existent. It is matter but prior to direction or relativity. Value of ONE.
2. The LINE (vertical & horizontal): The Point now has motion and trajectory. It now has relativity. It is now “here” because it is not “there”. It has Spirit. The POINT has now arrived within the latitude of the material; gravity, horizon, limits… It has direction (Forward/Back). Spirit meets material as a CROSS: Spirit has descended into matter. The value of TWO.
3. The TRIANGLE: The CROSS now experiences unity by joining together and completing the circuit. It represents body-mind-spirit, conscious-subconscious-higher (or UNconscious) and the triad; Father, Son and Holy Ghost. The triangle is the potential synthesis of the spiritual and material together. Value of THREE.
4. The SQUARE: The material phenomena. Earth, four corners, four directions, four elements. All material, tangible, dimensional objects exist within four dimensions (3 spatial and one time). Value of FOUR.
This is why Pythagoras’ theorem gives us the material blueprint which existence is framed upon. The basic, foundational and fundamental geometrical forms are all present within it and create it. No parts are independent.
The triangle is within the center, and the cross provides the base and support of it. The top of the cross is where spirit descends and enters into matter (age zero). Life begins and travels (in 9 year cycles) around the geometry of manifestation. The Spiritual Triangle (the Soul) remains at the center and life’s events manifest around it. The Jiva or Atman, is the Divine essence that is perfect and eternal. It is the “cloak” of humanness; how the Soul expresses itself. It also cloaks and shrouds it, forgetting its own divinity at the core.
THE PHILOSPHER’S DIAMOND—THE TRIANGLE
Like the 360-degree circle, the Triangle also has no starting or ending point and is unified and whole, but The Triangle equals just 180 degrees or, half-truth. It means the material reality is not whole, but actually nonreal.
It lacks the perfect symmetry of the CIRCLE by having lines, corners and edges.
Sacred geometry is not confined to these primary shapes we learn in grade school though.
To bring the Triangle from 180 degrees to 360-degree completion—we join the downward, descending triangle with the upward ascending triangle.
This gives us The Philosopher’s Diamond—a hexagram-star, AKA the Star of David, which represents the union of human spirit with divinity: “As Above, So Below” spirit into matter and one upward representing ascension[1]. This primordial archetype symbolizes spiritual enlightenment.
[1] Its uncanny how many Jewish people have no clue as to the mystical origins of their own symbol! But hey! The ignorance of Jesus’ birthday actually being in December, resurrection in the spring and taking a live tree in your home for Christians is oblivious to their majority too!
You don’t need to be a trigonometry major to benefit from the magic of sacred geometry. These basics will be enough for you to experience a deeper dimension of your Portal Triangle blueprint. If you would like to delve deeper, the Numerology workbook available here includes instructions on Sacred Geometry and will make you a virtual expert in a short amount of study.
For a more advanced experience, meditate on yantras, aka mandalas. Mandalas are also archetypal shapes, that are more expressive.
It is not possible to meditate upon a mandala (like the Shri Yantra below) without having it broaden your thoughts and feel connected to the cosmos.
When I completed the final draft of Within the Portal—A Guide for Spiritual Development, it needed a cover. The book was in the hands of my very qualified and dearest editor which put me into a creative pralaya—I’d been writing nonstop for months and now was in a dormant, inactive phase while I waited for editing. I got busy meditating with visions to manifest the cover art. Several nights and days of meditations yielded a gorgeous vision. I contacted a wonderful artist I am close to and she and I began collaborating to bring this vision to life! I was very careful to direct the artwork to be true to tantric yog(a) methods of yantras. Lo and behold, this is what was created:
She’s an amazing artist, isn’t she?!
We both agreed to use the eyes open version for the book cover. Why?
Because the book provides inspiration, knowledge and instructions to attain spiritual illumination. Ya see… when Lord Shiva’s third eye is closed, the material world is in its manifested state and is an illusion—it ain’t real! When Shiva opens His third eye, the illusion is destroyed and the material universe enters its dormant, pralaya, phase. If this book helps to destroy one’s ignorance, then it is opening their eyes, particularly their third eye.
The sacred geometry shape—the Yantra, which is in the third-eye, ajna chakra location between the brows, is consistent to tantric formulae:
· A radiant white light for higher spirit.
· 13 green Lotus pills representing yantra of the Anahata chakra.
· The original one has 12 petals; this one has a 13th or another dimension of love.
· An ochre ring for protection.
· Ochre orange is the traditional color of gurus and holy saddhus in India.
· Violet bands of light for higher consciences of the Sahasrara chakra.
· A second ochre orange ring for protection.
· A violet, 11 pointed star, called a hendecagram, that appeared to me on 3 consecutive nights. This is the foundation of the yantra.
· The center ring is an Oroborous; a serpent eating its own tail which represents infinity and eternity.
· Radiating white light expanding from the center.
· The red dot in the center is called a bindi and that is the focal point.
This yantra has the same potency and effects as others. Use to meditate and you’ll see. A video version of the yantra rotating, expanding and contracting is available on the website and Youtube:
“I am not a human being having a spiritual experience, I am a spiritual being having a human experience.” Teilhard de Chardin
What Now?
You don’t need to be a trigonometry major to benefit from the magic of Sacred Geometry. These basics will be enough for you to experience a deeper dimension of your Within The Portal Blueprint.
The next spiritual modality we will cover is Numerology.
