Why is everything in the universe not man-made shaped like a spiral, ball, or egg? Can media and culture work together to help you find a religion? Looking for a religion in Sacramento? I found it by exploring the golden ratio in nature. Where you can explore this further also is in the various Unitarian churches in Sacramento and also in how the media views culture. See, Unitarian Universalist Society of Sacramento - Home.
How this relates to media and culture is that one purpose of media is to separate the man-made from that which cannot be man-made. And one purpose of culture is to find anything in nature that is not human-made that is found in everything animal, vegetable, and mineral.
In Sacramento you could explore the golden ration through Eastern religions in this area, for example, check out, Hinduism - The Scientific Religion: Golden Ratio, SriYantra, or you could search through pure mathematics. See the site, Patterns of Visual Math - Phi 1.618. Or you could explore various Asian relgions, check out, Miracle of Kaaba & Golden Ratio: Exclusive Video | Urdu Columns. Another way is to keep your exploratons secular. You could keep it ethical. Or you could study sacred geometry. See, Sacred Geometry* - tribe.net.
Speaking of geometric shapes in nature, you could meditate on this concept: ἀεὶ ὁ θεὸς γεωμετρεῖ: Aei ho theos geōmetreî. "God always geometrizes", Plato · Plutarch elaborated on this phrase in his essay Πῶς Πλάτων ἔλεγε τὸν θεὸν.
When it comes to religion, you have to separate the man-made from the mathematical ratios in nature that can't be human-made. And it boils down to the 1.6 golden ratio in all of nature from rocks and minerals to plants, animals, and humans. Check out the book, The Golden Ratio: The Story of PHI, the World's Most Astonishing Number by Mario Livio.
If God exists, why doesn't she reveal herself/he reveal himself? God is the mathematical golden ratio of 1.6 found in all nature. It's part of nature and shows up in this universe in everything. Maybe another universe has a different golden ratio. It's purely mathematical. That's what God is, mathematical order.
God is not a man or woman and doesn't have to reproduce. It's part of nature and is a perfect mathematical formula, simple and clear...like the vibration of a violin string. You'll find the 1.6 ratio in all of nature from humans to tree leaves and in rocks and minerals as well as plants and animals. That's God. And built within people is a self-healing center that works to an extent as well as a telepathy and healing center that's a measurable electrical force.
Even a tree trunk has enough electricity in some ways similar to the electricity you find in 2 AA batteries, to run a small portable radio. That's called the life force. And that's what God is....math and electricity. The universe contracts and expands over and over in the same place like a pulse. And that's what creates the chemistry for life in the right time and place.
Everything else is made up by humans to create morality. But morality usually is already built into people who are born with consciences in the form of do to others want you want done to yourself.
And why prayer works is that the telepathic universal mind has a measurable electrical force that can be picked up by electrical equipment and measured whenever there's a rise in universal concern or consciousness about an event. So when you look at religion, first you have to separate the man-made from the events that are impossible for humans to create such as the golden ratio of 1.6 found in all of nature.
To find the golden ratio, it's the number approximately equal to 1.618033989...
It is exactly equal to (1+√5)/2
If you divide a line into two parts so that: the longer part divided by the smaller part is also equal to the whole length divided by the longer part, then you will have the Golden Ratio.
So perhaps that makes God a master mathematician. And that also makes nature in this universe also a master mathematician speaking in geometries. Take your pick. That's why I'm a Unitarian. See, What is the Golden Ratio and How is it Related to the Fibonacci.
You can create the most beautiful art using the proportions of the golden ratio of 1.6. And you can measure it in the leaves of trees and flowers, vegetables, fruits, and animals as well as in people, furniture, and the way to build a house or the formation of rocks in nature.
If you're looking for something to worship, worship the simplicity within the complexity of mathematics and music. It's divine and at the same time, it's natural. If you have to define love in concrete ways, it would be the math of the golden ratio of 1.6....
The golden ratio is 1.618. After the eight sequence it shows how chaos become order. It is truly amazing like there is a intelligence that created this universe. The sequence of numbers was discovered by Fibonacci. Below are examples showing after 8 sequences the ratio is 1.618 or 1.619.
Pick any 2 numbers. I picked 0 and 1. Now I add them up and put result in extreme right column 3.
0 + 1 = 1
1 + 1 = 2
1 + 2 = 3
2 + 3 = 5
3 + 5 = 8
5 + 8 = 13
8 + 13 = 21
13 + 21 = 34
21 + 34 = 55
First 2 numbers are added to get 3rd number in line column 3. Now left adjust the result in column 2 and 3. Continue thru the sequences. Now at the 8th sequence you divide 34 by 21. You get the ratio of 1.619. Divide 55 by 34, you get 1.618. This continues forever.
Now pick any other number. Let us use 75 and 216
75 +216 = 291
216 + 291 = 507
291 + 507 = 798
507 + 798 = 1305
798 + 1305 = 2103
1305 + 2103 = 3408
2103 + 3408 = 5511
3408 + 5511 = 8919
Now divide 8919 by 5511 and you get 1.618. You could have started using whole numbers, fractions, imaginary numbers or irrational numbers. The golden ratio appears in nature like looking at spirals, seashells, sunflowers, honey combs, pinecones, bacteria, the human face, human body and progression of molecular weight through the periodic table.
Why do all these objects obey this natural progression? Fractals are also important in nature. The next question to ask yourself is why is there entropy? Why does the atoms pull apart and separate in the universe?
Why does the universe have a specific life span? Why does everything wear out, grow old, and disappear into dark energy? The next question, does it all mean that eventually all this chaos and entropy is only temporary, that order forms out of chaos again and again? That's like reincarnation in a sense.
Out of the dark energy from chaos, from universes and living things grown old and diffused, the energy contracts back into new life forms again and again. So is there chaos or order, entropy or rebirth? Is it all a cycle?
Kind of makes some people want to search for an answer or a religion. Does everything in time and space speak in geometries? Is that what creation is--geometry? Or is geometry an expression of something higher that's not subjected to entropy or chaos?
