  • @CGimaging good presentation. REQUEST: can u tell me how u got the circular green patterns at 8:40 in the video? Ok back to the subject : I've read many books & seen tons of videos on this & related subjects & symbolism in architecture relating to sacred geometry. In honesty, i don't know if this is spiritual or a type of spiritual outgrowth of our human, harmonious ability to build upon math/geometry & art, but in fairness, i will say that that itself could be seen as spiritual.

  • @robelicit

    Regarding the circular patterns at 8:40: I created a pen & ink drawing of concentric circles made of black ink dots on white paper. This drawing was then scanned as a photoshop image, reversed into a negative (white dots and black background. Then the digital file was layered and animated in Final Cut Pro; one file was rotated clockwise and a duplicate file (slightly larger} was rotated counterclockwise. Additional video clips where also layered to complete the look.

  • Dear @aerhearts,

    I know you are suffering with the pains of atheism. . . been there. . . done that. And so, this is my sincere question for you:

    If the beautiful, unchanging perfections of Geometry and Mathematics are NOT sacred, What is?

    Love and LIGHT,

    Charles

  • @lawnsausages

    Thank you for your thoughtful comments. I truly intended no disrespect with my sincere question. I was a devout atheist for almost 18 years and never even realized the depth of my suffering. I was so disheartened I could not see anything as "Sacred". And so I still have profound empathy for the atheistic position, but my long time and direct Gnostic experience forces me to choose the light.

    Namaste,

    Charles

see all

  • I am an atheist, i do not believe in the modern religious god that listens to your prayers and gives you your wants. But I do believe that the universe as a whole is consciousness, the universe it self is a mind. I do not want to use the word god because the word god always has to do with religion so instead i will say consciousness. And The universe is consciousness because for there to be things such as elements you need to be conscious of what material existence is.

  • @djentlekat

    Oh, calm down... You realize that I was just kidding... shithead.

    Namaste.

  • @TheNewBlackster : therefore everything bullshit, shithead

  • @djentlekat

    Oh, I get your logic... Everything is Sacred, therefore, nothing is really sacred. Very good.

  • @CGimaging Its too bad that doesn't really mean anything.

  • @wannabeers

    What? Since when does believing in a supreme being(s) make some someone believe there is a limit to what humans can do. Quite, the opposite. I believe we are way more capable of what we can do. In some ways, that science can't explain yet. I believe we are still young in our full understanding of the universe... very young.

  • @CGimaging : nothing is sacred, if something is sacred then it is automatically bullshit

  • As far as I know mandala is used to spirit invocation .

    Why do you incourage people to deal with spirits ?

    White people like the lux but come on don t take us for fools.
