what is curious is, the relationship between the construction of an alphabet/abjad and the underlying,
wisdom it is meant to convey through time. the abjad/alphabet required a author right?
so, if it conveyed wisdom through time, it would imply the author had this as an intention.
that as a template, what are the chances that multiple sequential authors of abjads/alphabets would
result in conveying wisdom through time?
the seed:
geometry is the pattern
the alphabet is the seed casing
story is the vessel of transport
ritual is repeated planting
culture is the soil
the individual mind is where germination occurs
the thread through time:
before humanity wrote wisdom, it watched wisdom move
it saw it in the stars and seasons,
in waters and plants,
in animals, birth, sleep, and death
geometry gave movement form
number gave form position and proportion
letters gave number a voice
words gave the voice memory
stories carried that memory through the fall of languages, kingdoms, and nations
ritual placed the story into the body
and when the outer meaning was forgotten,
the image remained,
waiting for another mind to see it again
