Highlights
Introduction to the Divine Alphabet00:00:05
Dr. Gilbert introduces the five-day course on sacred geometry, focusing on the divine alphabet of shapes that create functions in the physical world, beginning with the circle and sphere.
The Circle and Sphere as Primal Containers00:05:04
Discussion on how the circle and sphere represent nature's primal container for energy and consciousness, found at all scales from subatomic particles to galactic structures.
Atomic and Cosmological Models00:09:16
Exploration of how modern scientific models, including those by Larry Spring and Milo Wolf, use spherical geometry to describe electromagnetic waves and atomic structures.
Embryogenesis and Biological Geometry00:18:42
Analysis of the biological manifestation of sacred geometry, specifically looking at embryogenesis and the formation of the amniotic sac, linking these to ancient sacred archetypes.
Sacred Icons and Higher Consciousness00:26:54
Examining Itzhak Bentov's work on higher consciousness and how sacred alphabets, like Sanskrit, correspond to rotating geometric forms on the sphere of creation.
The Tree of Life and Geometric Harmonics00:33:02
An overview of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life, its role as an energetic blueprint, and the harmonic relationships between geometric volumes like the cube and sphere.
The Vesica Piscis: The Portal of Balance00:59:53
A detailed look at the vesica piscis as the primary geometric portal representing the balance between spirit and matter, found in the iconography of Christ, Mary, and Buddha.
Architectural Applications and Inversion01:04:04
How the vesica piscis and root rectangles serve as matrices for sacred architecture, and an exploration of the principle of inversion in nature and spiritual development.
Polarity and the I Ching01:53:06
Connecting the vesica's balance of polarities to the binary systems of the I Ching and their relationship to DNA, computer logic, and biological systems.
