Reality:

     Reality is what this is really all about after all. Science and Religion working together to bring us all closer to the truth, and closer to understanding why we are here and how. Numbers and math are the only things that work here in trying to define where we are. The first thing to examine is the volume of space that we are in. Three dimensions are required to define our space, or any space. Length, Width, and Depth are the variables. We assume this space around us is infinite because of logic. If there were an end to reality; a barrier of some sort, it would denote that there was something beyond. If there were something beyond, it would also be measurable in 3 dimensions, thus continuing the scope of infinity. (This Infinite Beyond is referred to as the Greater Infinity as it is expansive. There is also the Lessor Infinity, which shall be dealt with later).

    Any point in space can be identified with 3 dimensions. To demonstrate the coordinate system we can build a theoretical center point for all of creation. We will call this point in space ZERO. For the 3 dimensions we will use the adopted standards of x, y, and z. These are two-dimensional lines that all intersect at the center point. They too are infinite. They go off in 6 different directions forever. (There’s that 3 and 6 again.)

    It doesn’t matter what unit we use to measure with, so long as it is a standard. We will use the simplest unit of one. Could be one Mile, one millimeter, one parsec, really doesn’t matter at all for this purpose. There are 3 lines we can measure along. Each passes through Zero, so each has a negative and a positive value. There are right off, 6 points to be defined and marked. These points are x, y, z, -x, -y, and –z. These are standard points right on the lines of dimension. The next set of points are the first series of combinations of these. There are 12 of these two-dimensional points in space. These are xy, xz, yz, -xy, -xz, -yz, x-y, x-z, y-z, -x-y, -x-z, and –y-z. Now we define the last series of points, the last because we are at the third dimension for this reality. There are 8 of these. They are xyz, -xyz, -x-yz, -x-y-z, xy-z, x-yz, x-y-z, and -xy-z. All of these defined points are exactly one unit away from the origin point of Zero. There are 26 of them. With the addition of the Zero point there are 27, which is three dimensions cubed, or 3 x 3 x 3. There are other number patterns here as well. 6 + 12 + 8 = 26, which reduces to 8, and also contains the 18. These numbers and patterns are all significant in tying the whole scope of reality together.

    The X,Y,Z coordinate system can be broken up into distinct groups of points. What these points describe is the Reality Cube. This cube is comprised of three different shapes that combine into the whole precisely. The first group is the base dimensional points of x,y, and z, with their respective negative/opposite counterparts. This group contains Six members, each with a single digit value for a description. The actual geometric form that these six points represent is depicted as an Octahedron. This 3-d form has the 6 points, 12 edges or lines of connection, and 8 faces or planes. The sum of the components of this form is 6 + 12 + 8 = 26.


    I will skip to the third group for now because the geometric form they represent is very similar to the octahedron, and simpler than the form of the second group. The third group has the three dimensional points as members. These are the points that can only be described with all three coordinates. Each of these Eight members has a value of three digits for a description, they all have x,y, and z coordinates in their values. This 3-d form is the Hexahedron or Cube. It has 8 points, 12 edges, and 6 faces. Compare these values to the octahedron. Note that they. both add up to 26 components:

    The last group, (which is really the second,) is a more complex form than either the octahedron or cube. It is very much a hybrid of both of these forms. The group that it is formed from is that of the two-dimensional points, those which have two digits in their values. There are Twelve members in this group. These are the most numerous of the three groups, so the geometric form is more complicated. The technical name for this geometric volume is the Cuboctahedron. Where the octahedron has triangular faces or sides, and the sides of the cube are square, this form has both. Here, there are the 12 points. This form has 24 edges, (Twice the number of the others,) and 14 faces, (6 are square and 8 are triangular.):

    These 3 groups of coordinates are significant in many ways. The most obvious is that they are broken down into 6, 8, and 12. This is the total of the points in the reality cube, minus the center point. The center point is, again, represented by a zero. The center point is hidden, but still has the value of 1, and is thus the 27th point of the 27. The obvious coincidence is that the geometric forms that the groups of single and triple coordinates result in both have these numbers of 6, 8, and 12 as definitions of the forms they are represented as.

    Study of the two simple forms will reveal that they are two opposite aspects of a single form, which is represented by the third more complicated form. In the octahedron and the cube, the number of lines or edges required to form them is the same. Where there are faces on the octahedron, the cube has points. Where there are faces on the cube, the octahedron has points.

    On the complex third geometric form, the lines/edges are doubled, and all the sides are present of the other two forms. The mystery that remains is that of the number of points. Remember though, this third form is really the second form, which is between the other two. This is as it should be, as the cuboctahedron represents the transition from one to another having the qualities of both. The only thing that is somehow missing are two points. The sum of all the parts of the first and third form are the same: 6 + 8 + 12 = 26. The hybrid form, the cuboctahedron, in between them does not have (26 + 26 =) 52 components, but only 50. What could be the meaning behind this discrepancy? The result of the addition if there were 52 parts to the middle form would be 26 + 26 + 52 = 104, which has a reduced value of 5. In reality, the sum is found with 26 + 26 + 50 = 102, which is a 3. As this is more symbolic of the three dimensions, variables, and forms, it is obviously the correct number to find as a result. The possible meanings of the 5 will be discussed at another time. All of these numbers play a very important part in the structure of reality, as we know it.

    This strange polyhedron form is also the result of arranging equal sized spheres in a perfect form. If we had one sphere, the zero point, and wished to surround it with as many other spheres of the same volume, only 12 could be arranged around it with some part touching the central sphere. On a flat plane, the zero is surrounded by 6 like the natural form of a honeycomb. These are the perfect six divisions of the circle at 60 degrees each, forming six equilateral triangles. On top, there can be set 3 more spheres in another equilateral triangle. Below the plane of the 7 can be set 3 more in the same way as on top. Note, however, that there are two ways in which the new triangles of spheres can be oriented. If the top 3 are set opposite of the bottom, then the form is symmetrical all the way around. This is the way it is derived from the reality cube model. If the bottom is the same as the top, then the form is only symmetrical in relation to the plane of the 7. In either case, the complete form has the 13 spheres arranged in 8 triangles and 6 squares.
