Groups, again
Month, Day: 170, 4th Intercalary (Glory)
As we approach the new energy point, we get close, to boot, to the re-start of the cycles. Last year, we presented a review of various groupings that make sense. Why the original use of 4? One might point to the Four Valleys. But, one could think of chords, to boot.
Today, I wondered what a partitioning by three, which is a regular occurrence for us, would look like.
Splendour, Glory, Beauty,
Grandeur, Light, Mercy,
Words, Perfection, Names,
Might, Will, Knowledge,
Power, Speech, Questions,
Honour, Sovereignty, Dominion,
Intercalary, Loftiness
The colors depict the four-group:
Transcendent, Teleological, Operational, Motivational, Ascendant.

Angels, again
Month, Day: 170, Dominion, Glory (Glory)
In an earlier post (Angels, super man), I touched upon angels briefly since the incomplete writeup on this page at Wikipedia was irritating. Why? We'll get to that, in time (it's an issue related to ontology). But, for now, let's just say that one sense is being stressed as the important one in a discussion that needs to be brought forth in the context of science and religion (this blog's theme, in case it wasn't apparent).
So, I went today to the on-line repository of the Writings. Here is a link for four searches using the word "angels" as the key. Counts are in parenthesis.
As a hint, consider that we topsy-turvy put a framework other than quasi-empirical mathematics as the basis for our knowledge. Oh, we can to that? Too, looking at the physical in a more broad sense would result in properties coming to fore (as in, not then being extant - rather it's a matter of visibility and awareness) that will help us fill in pieces (operationally - think atoms).
Audacity brings this out; general evolution, and progress, keeps increasing the potential.
Remarks:
02/09/2014 -- Pages to bring forth: Jewish mysticism, Baha'i Cosmology, ...
02/08/2014 -- I got back on this theme while reading Robert Stockman's notes on the history of Judaism which relates to progression of knowledge.

- The Glory (49)

- The Guardian (17)
- Compilations (26)

Eighth day of Sovereignty
Month, Day: 170, Sovereignty, Perfection (Beauty)
How is it that we don't see a mathematical flavor in the Writings? That is, any, and all, can know God (see the short prayer). Whereas, mathematics has reduced itself to an arena of the few (many of whom have no concept, feeling for, of quasi-empirical issues). Now, if we could incorporate something from the knowing of God into the technical framework for science (from the queen being encapsulated), there ought to be some type of measurable benefit (we're approaching the new energy point - from a sense, exogenous, though not).
Remarks:
02/28/2014 -- We're to the intercalary period. The time of the new energy is closer.
01/31/2014 -- This applies (Aqdas #94): Blessed the day on which the banners of the divine Names shall be upraised in the kingdom of creation in My Name, the All-Glorious. On that day the faithful shall rejoice in the victory of God, and the disbelievers shall lament.

Summary, 2013
Month, Day: 170, Honour, Glory (Justice)
The blog started in January of 2008. It has 302 posts, so far. There are 25 Categories. The most-read of these is Audacity (all sorts of connotations, including several given by the Master).
I did not do a summary last year, however there was a wrap-up for 2011 . This image shows posts, ordered by number of reads, for the Past 30 days and for All time.
The top two match up. Then, there is little overlap with the rest. It's probably nice that some 2013 posts got on the list. But, too, seeing the 2009 post stand up through time is a good thing.

It's still 2013, in my timezone, despite the clock for this blog having it in 2014. I have it that way so that the new day starts in the evening, post sundown (or close to it).

Second day of Honour, which followed Questions.

Five aspects of spirit, as seen in SAQ #36. Given the Either/Or, one would expect that people harkening to the heavenly spirit (fourth degree) would have a positive impact on human affairs.
