{The Sphere [continued (37)] – Inside the Sphere [continued (9)]}[29th July 1988]

In mathematical terms, the point where 3 independent and consistent linear equations in 3 variables intersect (as 3 planes in 3 dimensions), is the Unique Solution.* This corresponds to the central point of the Spirit, in the Sphere, where the 3 perpendicular discs** intersect. Strictly speaking, the linear equations would not be likely to intersect at the central point of their 3 co-ordinates, the Origin; the 3 Circles** do, of course, intersect at the central point of their co-ordinates, so that their origin is also their Unique Solution.

{The Sphere [continued (36)] – Inside the Sphere [continued (8)]}[29th July 1988]

I believe that if you join together by straight lines the six ‘poles’ or vertices of the three perpendicular discs within the sphere, the resulting enclosed space is the Diamond or Jewel shape, described earlier* as a vision of the Holy City,** as if suspended above the centre of the […] hill and of the [...]land….


*(ref III.[[Redbook3:31-32][19870326:1543m]{Image: The City of Light}[26th March 1987],] 31-32)

**[Described as] The City of Light, actually, or the Ultimate City….
[& with no apparent reference to the specific shape – “It is a City in Abstract: a City of Light, whose Form and Structure is Clear Light and whose Citizens are one with its Structure – so far as I can tell. The City shows slightly different facets, and seems to move, as the Light moves; but whether this is really so, I cannot say. It is enough to have seen it, and I hope to continue to see it, or at least to keep the memory of that Jewel in my mind's eye, as I go around.

{The Sphere [continued (35)] – Inside the Sphere [continued (7)]}[27th July 1988]

There are problems remaining* as to the way in which points on the perimeter would be linked, for example in terms of the qualities of Individuals, and the effects this would produce. Would an Individual be capable of existence in both hemispheres?** Or would he exist only in one but be pulled towards one or the other?

The first case would be the 2-dimensional equivalent on the inner surface of each hemisphere; the second would be fully 3-dimensional, but in a restricted cylinder-like volume of space.

What I actually envisage is the whole of the inside of the sphere being used: this can in fact follow from the second case if one accepts that the Ring qualities are a restricted part of the whole: to the front**** the Tarot Numbers*** indicate a less developed, more unregenerate type of the quality (or Man); to the back,**** a more Divine or Angelic type. This follows to an extent from the ‘Band’ nature of the Circle: if you extrapolate Inner Qualities ‘inwards’, you should find the latter; if Outer Qualities ‘outwards’, the former.


*[See last previous entry and entries referred to in its fns.]

**[Unclear whether this refers to the [O] Disc (the basic Circles interface) (more likely) or possibly to all of the three hemispheres referred to in the previous entry]

#There could still be complete vision (ref [[Redbook5:234][19880727:1120e]{The Sphere [continued (29)] – Inside the Sphere}[27th July 1988]] p234), as souls may be in this sense more-or-less transparent – especially the nearer the centre they are…? <880729(28)>

Some systematic naming of Hemispheres might help:*

Superior
Hemisphere
Inferior

[O] Disc
(Facing Plane)
(C-G~-A~-M~-C)
(Front)#*
Spiritual Kingdom

(Back)#*
Physical Universe
(Actual World)
(2)***
Vertical Deep Disc

‘Right’ Hemisphere

?‘Left’ Hemisphere

(3)****
Horizontal Deep Disc
(F-G~-I-M~-F)#
Realm of Light
Realm of Darkness

{The Sphere [continued (33)] – Inside the Sphere [continued (5)]}[27th July 1988]

Another* problem is that I have identified n=3** with the creation of the ‘space’ for Spiritual Kingdom and Physical Universe (and n=4 with filling them?) – whereas in actuality it might seem that the Spiritual Kingdom was more like a 4th Dimension*** to the Physical Universe. But that is a relatively modern idea, and I prefer the balance of simultaneous creation and evolution.

So far as the Tarot Jokers* are concerned, building the formative pattern with:


[Text from ms diagram shown above:]


T.0



T.II

T.V

T.J(G~)

☼

T.J(M~)

T.III

T.IV



T.I



seems more appropriate than:


[Text from ms diagram shown above:]

T.0

T.II

T.V

☼

T.III

T.IV

T.I


– But it is undeniable that the latter pattern is seen frequently in Art and symbolism; and, I have an idea, in Nature.

There is also* a third plane, the horizontal, which divides the ‘Upper’ from the ‘Lower’ in both hemispheres. This is the plane of G~ & M~ on the Circle: viewed from above (C):


[Text from ms diagram shown above:]

Creator
-Father F


Spirit

G~
+
M~




Man
(I=Individual)


It is, of course, possible to include diagonals on the last 2 planes (above)** and to include diagonal planes; but I do not at present see the need for these in this particular model.

There are some uncertainties. It is not absolutely clear why ‘No Man comes to the Father but by Me’ unless the Vertical Deep Plane rotates in some rather dubious way (and the Horizontal Plane does not rotate).

*And of course there is a perpendicular plane vertically in depth which has more purely theological implications: viewed from the G point of the Circle:**

(I am rather inclined to call the Physical Universe ‘the Actual World’ and the Spiritual Kingdom ‘the Real World’. Although not directly in accord with their roots, or common use, these uses feel satisfactory to me.)
