7V4V and Night Journey

Month, Day: 179, Questions, Names (Grace) 

There have been many posts on the theme of the Seven and Four Valleys. There could be an endless number of these. 

The post on the "Night Journey" Surah got me looking at other literature where the Seven Sky theme is discussed. Found some wonderful examples, plus graphics. This is taken from one (see last post). 

Have not gone beyond Search, yet; this exercise got me to look at it closely. The mapping is obvious. So, in the spirit of 100,000 years, we'll see how this goes. Perhaps, the chord aspect will get a first look done quickly. 

Remarks: 12/20/2022

12/20/2022 --  Okay, full circle. Earlier in the year, I ran into the Hermes connection. I was looking at what's missing with what I call AIn't which is a mechanical mode mimicking (supposedly) mankind's facilities which are not under anyone's thumb, nor will they be. So, lots to bring back to discussion there. Rhetoric was of interest especially when one sees what Google is up to with respect to chat. No amount of this type of manipulation will get beyond this maxim: AIn't can't Kant. Yet, computers have a place which will be remarkable after a few things are settled which will allow the latent energies to flow. Now, having been going through an umpteenth pass through the Koran (Rodwell), I recently resaw the "Night Journey" (which was the theme of this, and of the last, post). 7V4V popped out immediately. So, I did this, but what of Enoch? Tonight I went back to see what was the support for  this story, in terms of provenance of the material. That theme will become more important as we get more reliant upon people using their own eyes and brain (common theme). I read some posts that I had earlier, but then Mary (19:56) came up. That gets my attention due to the Bab's mention of Christians being the Apple of His Eye. Too, of late, I have taken the 'image of God' theme further in that the Hidden Words suggest this several ways. Too, equality and justice? It ain't gonna happen without mutual respect. When we have the obvious differences? Yet, we can change the words to think 'infinity' where we show the physics/math modes are inhibiting. Can we? You bet. Then, we can consider that talking of how two infinities relate comes to fore. We can do this, too. It's quite simple. However, it's a side trip, for now. The 'image' theme then gets us back to creation and being children of God. How does that apply within philosophy? Lots to discuss, but we already had that with the paper accessible from the above link (Hermes). Back to the graphic of seven.  Enoch and Idris are part of the Islamic tradition. But, it goes further, if you look at the philosophical statements by Baha'u'llah. ... As an aside, being universal, switching gears as we will be back to the theme again and again (see posts here on cycles), there is a book out of the yoga culture from the last decade of 1800. Now, in that book, the yoga scholars noted similarities twixt portions of the OT and the NT and Vedic writings. In fact, the discipline is explained, very well. Too, a puzzle was resolved (see Aqdas mention - bones, as the clue) alluding to this culture. At the same time (synonymous, almost), thoughts in the middle east relate (as seen by a description out of Hasidic scholarship). Not only can one see parallels across all of the cultures, but some of the more puzzling ones can be brought into the discussion. Oblique mode? Not really. Back to Enoch, which Unity relates to. Using this yesterday with respect to Adam and Search made a whole lot of sense. A tradition of Adam crying when his people (all of us) were in Hell and laughing when they were in Heaven will be on the table, with respect to a Prayer sent to a New Englander by the Master (there are posts here on that). That Jesus and John the Baptist are of Love is quite resonant at all levels. Then, Joseph of Knowledge? We'll stop with Enoch's Unity as our whole framework for creating a balance flows through there. I'll put up a graphic here used earlier and quit, for now. 

Chords? Ah, the power of music and its mathematical cousins. Philosophy is not merely a discipline of words, only. We can use Kant's thoughts, given his timeframe (before the limit of the two types of knowledge was dropped; but very good at describing the issues despite the handicap). Oh yes, situational aspects of late that need attention and more than passing interest with respect to these themes: See JP and RC-H discussion of a new approach to therapy.
