Five points

Month, Day: 169, Glory, Power (Glory)

Today, Ridvan. Looking at some related material, I came across the Symbols. And, then I saw the Tablet of the Bab written as a five-pointed star.

Well, have to admit, haven't seen that before.

And, the meanderings today looked at Names of God (Attributes).

Earlier, there had been discussion about the Groups. Picking a partitioning by four was arbitrary, but that did allow a type of coherent view which had some operational appeal. Part of the discussion used 'chords' which seems to be implied in the 7V4V.

Let's consider a five partition.
  • Splendour, Glory, Beauty, Grandeur, Light (so far, it looks cohesive)
  • Mercy, Words, Perfection, Names, Might (again)
  • Will, Knowledge, Power, Speech, Questions (ah, operational efforts, and science)
  • Honour, Dominion, Sovereignty, Intercalary, Loftiness (with the buffer period, there is an even split)
There is something to this. What concepts would apply to each of the groups so that we could identify a label?

I will have to use the current measure to consider the theme further. 

Remarks:

04/22/2012 --So, we have both a 4x5 and a 5x4. The former has been looked at for awhile. The latter will be the focus of attention for a few posts. Then, we'll relate the two viewpoints.
