Title: Flower of Life

Flower of Life
.
  • Connections to Masonry

2
Perspective Setting
  • Uneducated doesnt equate to unintelligent or
    uniformed
  • Access to formal education wasnt common
  • Renaissance in science and thinking
  • The quest for knowledge may have been the
    foundation for the establishment of Masonry and
    is just as relevant today
  • Did Masons borrow the concept of spiritual
    enlightment from the ancient Egyptians?
  • Historic connection of geometry with religion may
    explain why Masons have adopted geometric
    allegory

Flower of Life
  • The Flower of Life is the modern name given to a
    geometrical figure composed of multiple
    evenly-spaced, overlapping circles, that are
    arranged so that they form a flower-like pattern
    with a sixfold symmetry like a hexagon. The
    center of each circle is on the circumference of
    six surrounding circles of the same diameter.
  • It is considered by some to be a symbol of sacred
    geometry, said to contain ancient, religious
    value depicting the fundamental forms of space
    and time. In this sense, it is a visual
    expression of the connections life weaves through
    all sentient beings, believed to contain a type
    of Akashic Record of basic information of all
    living things.
  • There are many spiritual beliefs associated with
    the Flower of Life for example, depictions of
    the five Platonic Solids are found within the
    symbol of Metatron's Cube, which may be derived
    from the Flower of Life pattern. These platonic
    solids are geometrical forms which are said to
    act as a template from which all life springs.
  • Another notable example of that which may be
    derived from the Flower of Life is the Tree of
    Life. This has been an important symbol of sacred
    geometry for many people from various religious
    backgrounds. Particularly, the teachings of the
    Kabbalah have dealt intricately with the Tree of
    Life.

Derived from Nature
  • The great knowledge of the ancients like the
    Egyptians and Mayas has been derived from nature.
    These civilizations knew the diameters and
    relative positions of the stars, planets and our
    moon. Also their architecture was based on
    principles of nature.
  • The ancients illustrated the importance of
    geometry. The geometry is linked to music and our
    awareness. The application of sacred geometry can
    be found in the art of the Egyptians and Greeks.
  • The Geometry is used as a blueprint for our
    cells to grow in a certain direction from embryo
    to an adult human. Most people are not aware of
    the fact that this logical type of spirituality
    is the most profound and has been the most secret
    throughout the centuries.
  • For the Egyptians, Tibetan's and Maya's
    spirituality and science where perceived has one.
    They had a much richer intuitive life and where
    in contact both with the earth and the cosmos.

The Seed of Life
  • Connection to the Creation of Life
  • Understanding of cell divisions and reproductive
    as we know it today probably didnt exist
  • The "Seed of Life" is formed from seven circles
    being placed with sixfold symmetry, forming a
    pattern of circles and lenses, which acts as a
    basic component of the Flower of Life's design.
  • the Seed of Life is a symbol of depicting the
    seven days of creation in which God created life
    The first day is believed to be the creation of
    the Vesica Piscis, then the creation of the
    Tripod of Life on the second day, followed by one
    sphere added for each subsequent day until all
    seven spheres construct the Seed of Life on the
    sixth day of Creation. The seventh day is the day
    of rest, known as the "Sabbath" or "Shabbat."

Leonardo da Vinci
  • Leonardo da Vinci studied the Flower of Life's
    form and its mathematical properties. He drew the
    Flower of Life itself, as well as various
    components such as the Seed of Life. He drew
    geometric figures representing shapes such as the
    platonic solids, a sphere, a torus, etc., and
    also used the golden ratio of phi in his artwork
    all of which may be derived from the Flower of
    Life design.

The Ancient Secrets of 2012 and Masonry New World
Order Tactics
  • Masons study the ancient geometries of life, very
    much similar to the Mayans. Given this, they are
    very much adapt to knowing the secrets of life
    and are very familiar with the teachings within
    The Flower of Life. 
  • Studies have it that the masons
    (benevolent/charitable as they make us see) are
    really thought of as the secret government
    keeping the secret of life and ascension away
    from us so they can have a new world order by
    studying ancient geometry and ancient Mayan
    teachings. They unlocked the secret of surviving
    2012 predictions and they do not want the
    citizens of the world to know
  • Flower of Lifes main achievement is to make
    known that we can survive the acts of 2012 by
    ascension and becoming one with the universe/God,
    and overpowering the minds of masonry. 
  • When 2012 is near, all human must be in tuned
    with their spiritual side in order to survive.

Conclusions
  • Despite my research, I still cant figure out
    what this all means
  • Did I miss the degree where I was taught the
    Flower of Life survival knowledge?
  • Am I a member of a secret government agency?
  • Will I be part of the New World Order post 2012?
  • Or is the Flower of Like message a simple
    representation of the creation of life through
    cell division?
  • Maybe geometry is a simply a graphical
    representation of nature which in turn connects
    us to a more spiritual place.
