Stars of Creation
The Genesis 1:1 Triangle of 28 letters consists of a central point (13th dot) surrounded by two triangle layers.The inner triangle layer (in yellow below) surrounding the central point has gematria 611 = "Torah"
The inner + outer triangle layers surrounding the central point have gematria:
2701-10 = 2691 = 13×207 (light)
Interestingly, this triangle holds the foremost Star of David of 13 dots. This is the only triangle in all of math whose inner star (13 dots) is equal to its centroid (13th dot).
The gematria of the Star of 13 letters:
629 = 611+18 (Torah+Life) = 37×17 (Hevel/Wisdom × Good)
When G-d created the "Light", He said that it is "Good" (Gen.1:4) which means it has a good purpose, namely, to illuminate man with wisdom and perfection. This primordial light was hidden in the Torah (see previous section "Sabbath Light". As we saw there, the central letter "Yud" is very much connected with light and Israel[1]).
The surrounding 15 letters = 37×56 = 2072 (2000 Beit Rabbati, "House" + 72 "Hesed-kindness")
It seems the hint is that one who clings to the Torah will find that the world is a "House of kindness". Such a person will succeed in everything in life (Psalms 1:3).
Learning and fulfilling torah is hard work but it brings with it the greatest joy (R.Moshe Feinstein zt'l). (we can see also by the body: every food that tastes good is unhealthy while every food that is healthy does not taste good. It's an amazing thing to consider[2]. One has to go against his nature to eat healthy. So too for all meaningful things in life. They require discipline and hard work against one's nature. Cheap thrills may feel good in the moment, but they bring sadness and harm to the soul).
Observe the extra 3 letters which make up the Star besides the inner triangle of 10 letters are "הבא" (to come).
And in the book "Torat Chaim" by R.Chaim Kanievsky zt'l:
"Why did the Torah begin with the letter beit? For Beit hints to 2, namely, the two worlds: this world, and the world-to-come (Genesis Rabba 1:10). For if a person guards and observes the Torah, he merits to both worlds". (Torat Chaim, Bereisheit)
Similarly, the Genesis 1:1 gematria = 2701 = 73rd Triangle. This Triangle holds the 13th Star of David (see picture on right).The 13th Star has 937 dots which is the Milui (letter expansion) of "Torah" (936=תאו ואו ריש הא) surrounding the central point (+1). The dots surrounding the star are thus 2701-937=4×441 (Truth).
It seems the hint is that one who has grown and "expanded" in Torah will be illuminated with truth and wisdom. Such a person will see through the falsehoods of this world and its enchantments. The evil inclination will not be able to deceive him and he will succeed in everything in life.
Indeed, every person who studies Torah has a certain "spiritual vision". He sees things other people cannot see. Namely, "Tuma" (spiritual impurity). He can see this "Tuma" immediately on other people and their ways. This is something manifestly evident to those who study Torah. But one who does not, is completely blind to this or worse, he is attracted to the Tumah and sees it as "good". For he lacks the spiritual light of torah and thus the evil inclination can easily deceive him.
The more Torah a person has, the more spiritual vision he has. Thus the great Torah scholars are called "the eyes of the congregation" (Numbers 15:24, see Rashi). This is why it is very important to attach oneself to a wise Torah scholar for guidance.
Another major benefit is that when one sees a great man many spiritual levels above himself, it motivates him to strive higher. But if one stays only around people at his own spiritual level, he tends to think he is just fine where he is and will not be inspired to strive higher. Similarly, the entire world receives its divine flow from the point of creation in the holy of holies (in Jerusalem). For this is the way G-d created the world and likewise this is the main way a person grows spiritually - by having a connection with a great Rabbi who is like the point of creation.
The 13th Star also has 936 = 13×72 dots surrounding the center point, a hint to divine Hesed-kindness which surrounds one who is properly attached to the Torah.
Star 13
As before, the first Star of David which looks like a Star is the second star containing 13 dots. 13 is the gematria of "love" and "one". It is associated with the 13 attributes of Keter-crown, the highest Sefirah, which is all divine mercy and kindness to everyone, whether deserving or not.In the Midrash: "When the Holy One, Blessed be He, created the world, He desired that He should have a dwelling in the lower realms just as He has in the higher realms" (Midrash Tanchuma Nasso 16). This is why there is a commandment to resemble G-d as much as possible so that He will be able to dwell among us. This comes through fulfilling the 13 attributes of mercy of Keter-crown (see Tomer Devorah, ch.1). And in the Talmud:
" 'you shall walk in His ways' Deut.13:5, Just as He is compassionate and merciful, so too should you be compassionate and merciful..." (Talmud Shabbat 133b, Sotah 14a).Interestingly, the Tetragramaton has gematria 26 = 13×2, two stars of 13 (one and love), expressing the desire of G-d to unite with His creations if they chose to do so out of free will. For G-d is extremely humble. He does not want to impose Himself on human beings. This is why He hides behind the garment of nature, hinting to us through the divine wisdom in nature and speaking to us through the Torah. This is to give us "space" and let us choose whether or not we want to have a relationship with Him. Even though there is no time He does not want[3], but nevertheless, G-d is so humble that He is like a man who waits outside the synagogue until someone invites him in (R.Shlomo Yehuda, "Yenuka").
Also interesting, the Sefirah associated with the Tetragramaton and also the heart in man is called "Tiferet" and has Gematria 1081. The center point of 1081 is 541 (Israel). Like the heart, G-d grants life to all. It is the job of Israel to emulate G-d in this aspect and to help as many people as possible.
Observe that the gematria of "heart of man" (לב אדם)=77 and the 77th Star of David = 13×2701 dots (love/unity of creation). Very interesting. There are other deep meanings here[6].
More on Star 13
In the realm of G-d, there is no plurality or division. This is beyond the capacities and powers of the human mind to grasp. Thus, the first thing created was "Bereisheit" - time, the beginning of plurality. For time divides into "past, present, and future". "Bereisheit" was the initial point of time, the first indivisible point which had no past (Sforno Genesis 1:1).The Hebrew word for time is עת and this forms all 3 divisions:
| עתיק | עתה | עתיד |
| ancient (past) |
now (present) |
future |
The world was created in 6 days and the Sabbath is like the central point which gives meaning and purpose to the whole thing. The rest of time is an expansion of this initial "6 days".
This concept is expressed in Star 13:
If one takes a coin (or better yet, a "perfect circle") and have as many such coins/circles surrounding it, the maximum one can put is 6, not only that, but it will be a completely tight, perfect fit. Now, from these 6, we have 6 sides, we get 6 outward projections from the perfect inner circle using those, so we get the first star: 13. The rest are expansions of this same perfection[4].6 also represents space as a containment, the outer shell, up-down-left-right-forward-backwards and inside is the void, the concealed central point which creates and sustains the whole thing (see footnotes for more).
6 has many unique properties such as 1+2+3=6 and 1×2×3=6. 6,66,6×6,666 are all triangular numbers. It is a mathematical fact that the only repetitive digit triangular numbers are 55,66,and 666. Thus, 666 is the only repetitive digit triangular number with at least 3 digits. Interestingly, the 6th prime number is 13.
Hevel/Breath of Wisdom - Star 37,19,10
The next Star of David has 37 dots. This is the next phase of creation. 37 is the gematria of "Yechida" (singular) and also "Hevel" (breath).The gematria of Genesis 1:1 = 2701 = 37 × 73 = Breath × Wisdom (חכמה × הבל)
The 1st verse not only reflects the divine wisdom, but it is a statement, it is a fulfilment of the divine will. How is it being fulfilled? When we simplify it to the basic terms, it is done by G-d speaking the cosmos into existence.
The Gematrias of "Hevel" (Breath) are:
| 37 | = | Hevel/Breath | (Standard Gematria) |
| 19 | = | Hevel/Breath | (Ordinal Gematria and center point of 37) |
| 10 | = | Hevel/Breath | (Small Gematria and center point of 19) |
When one speaks, he is fulfilling מגשים ("geshem" = Vayomer Elokim, same root) his thoughts as words in the world, if those words are also manifesting what they describe and the conditions for it to be able to etc. - they would be divine speech with all that comes with it.
The Gematrias of "Hevel/Breath" are the lower subset of the "Wisdom" series (73,37,19,10). For Wisdom is prior to Hevel/breath. Wisdom is the foundation allowing Hevel/breath to act accordingly. So in this aspect, wisdom is higher, more spiritual.
Star 37
All Star numbers beginning from the Star of 13 dots can be constructed from 12 triangles surrounding a center point.
For example, the Star of 13 dots consists of 12 T1 triangles of 1 dot each surrounding a center point. The Star of 37 dots consists of 12 T2 triangles of 3 dots each surrounding a CP (see picture on right), etc.
Similarly, the 37th Star (7993 dots) is constructed from 12 T36 triangles of 666 dots each surrounding a center point[5]. It seems this Star represents the "space" created by the divine "Hevel/Breath".
Observe that from the 7993rd digit of Pi appears:
| 25 Digits of Pi from Position 7993 | |
| 2503912757710284027998066 | |
| ^ <-- 7993rd digit of Pi | |
25039 = 73 × 73 (Vayomer Elokim × Wisdom)
This is what is going on here - Hevel/breath forming Chochmah/wisdom into reality.
The 37th Star can likewise be constructed by merging two 109th triangles (5995 dots each). 109 is the standard gematria of "עגול" (circle).
The centroid (center point) of each 109th Triangle is the 2665th dot. 26 is the Tetragramaton and 65 is "A-donai" which is how it is pronounced, a divine signature we have seen before in this series. Perhaps these two triangles represent the interconnected physical and spiritual realms. The 2665 centroid indicates "G-d" is at the center of both realms, watching and presiding over everything.
The ordinal and small gematrias of "עגול" (circle) are 37 and 19 respectively. Interesting.
Star 19
19 is the midpoint of 37. Thus, the 19th Star fits in the center of the 37th star. The 19th Star is made of two 55th Triangles of 1540 dots each and has a height of 73 rows.1540 is the missing crown number of Israel (541) and collapses to 1+540=541 sum of thousands. It seems this represents the collapsing of everything towards Israel. For the purpose of all creation is for human beings to do the job of Israel, learning and fulfilling G-d's torah.
Star 10
10 is the midpoint of 19 and thus Star 10 (Israel) fits inside Star 19. Only odd numbers have center points, thus this is the final inner star. Star 10 (541=Israel) is made of 12 triangles of 45 dots each (45=Adam). It can also be made by merging two 28th Triangles of 406 dots each.I asked Oren Evron on this and he replied:
We are dealing with very important subjects.. We are dealing with frequency and resonance when we deal with this kind of units within units within units etc, series of numbers...I asked him for more clarification and he replied a long and complex explanation. Here is an excerpt:
406 is the gematria of ATA אתה ("you" in Hebrew).
The 406 triangle which means אתה (you) forms the unification of אתה vs אתה to form Israel 541 where each identity embraces the other, joins on mutual ground and gives also its' own added values.
This is what happens when an Israel person says Baruch ATA אתה and wants to join G-d, the person starts lighting up his 541 points in a field that is a medium of a much larger 3D field that can resonate outwards...
...There is much to go into with these things, much. However, with that background we go back to the series we spoke of:
When someone builds a mental idea, that idea exists in reality, his mind is part of reality and his thought is part of reality. However, the mental idea is connected to the lower world and already influences it, but not as much as pouring it in directly using the "canvas" of reality, matter/energy and form-vibration. How would he do that? He will mimic creation by speaking his mind, use the matter (air movement with his physical body, specifically mouth) to boost the air from inside outside to form "sound" that will carry his mental projection into this world and even if no one is around to hear, and even if he himself cannot hear himself (but it is much better if he does) it already influences reality in a deep way. How deep? How strong? That is dependent on the context and power that he brings.
So if he brings power "X" and reality can deal with X and repel it, even though it will come and influence, we will not see the effect. However, if his X is greater, then it will influence more directly. Sometimes repeating multiple times will break the repelling force. But there is also a more universal underlying structure that allow or deny such things, and that is what G-d wants. The will of G-d. So this is much deeper than this, but in basic terms, this is how a Tzadik (righteous man's) prayer can form reality where as another person, using the same prayer will not. Or a person that has pure mind can, where someone with un-pure mind cannot, tinokot of beit raban for example.
Now, take this into account of wave structure, when you throw the stone on the lake, directly from above you see the ripples, how strong, to what travel will it go, what will it interrupt? It all depends on the throw mechanism, the power, the weight of the stone, the field itself, the water's state, its' mass, its' condition (pure water, vs hard water, the pressure, like under tunnels/underground or sea level) structure within the water, other forces working. In any case you see multiple rings, these organically grow from "source" and spread according to the conditions met. This is the analogy of what happens with these series, with the mental building of them etc. When one realizes it, it allows the mental building to be stronger, but even without, it still works. Just like when a person throws the stone it hits the same as with or without intention, however, the intention can intensify the hit much more, as an unintentional throw of the stone will basically not put extra force from the thrower, as the default is just "let it go", while intentionality can multiply it by many factors, especially if using tools/leverage etc. This is the difference between Brachot (blessings) need intentions or not, but on Brachot (blessings) it is even much deeper, as with the stone, the stone itself is matter while the Brachah (blessing) itself just takes form in matter but the main thing is not the matter but the intention itself, which brings form to it.
So, in simple terms when we say אתה (you) with intense intentions we literally bring from us a directional pin pointing outwards to a specific unity, "you" this uses the formation of a triangle pointing from many definitions that "I" am aware of, outwards into a single unity, YOU.
IF we do this with the intention of unifying with the entity, loving, then we get a mirror back towards us, we get 406 YOU אתה brought back to us, using our own magnitude, just like throwing a ball to a wall and coming back with the same force, but without friction etc. This causes the triangles to collide with opposite directions and form the 541 star. In the middle is what is being brought to life, the pregnancy and outside all the shape of man. Not going into details at the moment.
However, this thin line does not just go one way and back, it also resonates upward/downward and makes a 3D Merkava. Does it have to? No, it depends on the amount of energy we have, not physical energy, but mental, so it will form it, but depending on our internal "sound" and meaning. Also it can be not pure and those impurities can interrupt the shape to take form. So this is the sound, internal thought, making a shape and resonant all around us.
This field, when constructed properly, not only influences the inner world of mental and spiritual "Ani", if strong enough, it can be felt outside and surround the entire Body. There it forms the 679 3D (Merkaba) structure bringing us to a level of peace with ourselves and the outside world, where peace שלום is the vessel containing this blessing. Therefore, shalom is 376 = one side of the 3D shape, including the middle row of 73 points.
There's much to elaborate..
Merkaba of Elokim
Level: Advanced
The Name of G-d appearing in Genesis 1:1 is "Elokim". This Name of G-d refers to G-d's attribute of Justice and Truth. It also refers to the precise laws of nature which do not go out of their bounds (Netziv commentary).Interestingly, there is one unique instance in all of the Tanach (Bible) for end letters of א-להים (Elokim). In the book of Isaiah:
|
"For I am the L-ord, Who loves justice, hates theft in a burnt offering; I will give their work in truth and make an everlasting covenant with them" (Isaiah 61:8) | ||||||
| כִּ֣י אֲנִ֚י יְ-הֹוָה֙ אֹהֵ֣ב מִשְׁפָּ֔ט | שֹׂנֵ֥א | גָזֵ֖ל | בְּעוֹלָ֑ה | וְנָֽתַתִּ֚י | פְעֻלָּתָם֙ | בֶּֽאֱמֶ֔ת וּבְרִ֥ית עוֹלָ֖ם אֶכְר֥וֹת לָהֶֽם |
| א | ל | ה | י | ם֙ | ||
|
between the words: "justice" and "truth": (Elokim) א-להים Last Letters: |
||||||
G-d's Name "Elokim" appears in "END LETTERS" for He is "behind the scenes" of nature. Don't be fooled by the illusion that it is all running on its own. This is just to give us space and free will. Focus instead on the divine wisdom everywhere permeating the universe.
The Gematria of "Elokim" (א-להים) = 86
The Gematria of "Nature" (הטבע) = 86 (same as Elokim)
The "Lifnei" (previous letters) of "Nature" הטבע is: דחאס = 73 (wisdom)
The second Lifnei of "Nature" which digs to the root is: גזאנ = 61 (Ayin), the source of wisdom.
The total Gematria of the above verse (Isaiah 61:8) is: 4453 = 61×73 (Ayin×Wisdom, wisdom from Keter-crown).
The sum of thousands is 4+453=457 = center point of Bereisheit (913) (WOW).
The ordinal gematria = 628 (Torah+Torah small gematria) indicating wisdom of the Torah.
The gematria of the 5 words comprising "Elokim" = 1990 (=10th Merkaba!) and this brings us to the 10th Merkaba number..
10th Merkaba
The "Merkaba" or 3-D Star of David (Stella Octangula, "8 pointed star") figurate is given by the formula:
Merkaba(n) = n×(2×n2 - 1).
Geometrically, a Merkaba is formed in two possible ways:
1. By merging two Tetrahedrons (3-d pyramids)
2. By "stellating" an Octahedron core (3-d eight sided diamond). i.e. adding a Tetrahedron pyramid on each of its 8 faces (see picture below).
Thus, the 10th Merkaba can be formed by either:
1. Merging two 10th Tetrahedrons (1330 dots each).
2. Merging the 10th Octahedron core (670 dots) with eight 9th Tetrahedrons (165 dots each) on each face.
1330 = 70×19 seems to hint to the 70 facets of Wisdom (19=wisdom small gematria). As known there are 70 facets of Torah.
670 = 67×10 seems to hint to 67 (binah) joining with "Yud"=10, the seed of Chochmah-wisdom to define the Nekudah (165) of creation. Elokim in this verse is Binah (Zohar Bereisheit 31b Tosefta)
This fits well with what we will see in Pi in the chapter "Beit-Binah".
Nekudah is the ultimate Chochmah. However, that too requires Binah, it needs to be built from the Ayin (the undefined Keter, the source of wisdom). Therefore, Binah and Chochmah are a couple, they do not separate (almost ever, only after the process, and in the very initial undefined in human cognition processes that 'spark' the very initiation of any kind of informational field) (heard from Oren Evron).
73rd Tetrahedron
As we saw in section "6 Days and Sabbath", the Genesis 1:1 Triangle hints to a 3-D structure, namely, the 73rd Tetrahedron (3-d pyramid of 67,525 dots. 2701 dots on each side. the 67 is important and refers to Binah). The next question becomes "which Merkaba fits inside the Genesis 1:1 Tetrahedron?"
The Merkaba has 8 vertices. Thus it fits inside a cube which likewise has 8 vertices (corners).The largest possible cube which fits in Tetrahedron 73 is the 19th cube. A Cube uses a straight line in a space oriented horizontally which gives a center point of center point feature (see picture on right).
The 19th cube has 193 = 6859 dots
The 3-D star of David that fits within 6859 is none other than 1990 = the 10th Merkaba !
The 10th Merkaba has surface dots = 541 (Israel) and 207×7 (light of 7=Sabbath?) remainder. It is likewise the sum of all Star Numbers until Star 10 = 541 (Israel), so 1990 also forms the 10th Star of David Pyramid.
The remaining dots inside the cube = 6859 - 1990 = 4869 = 9×541 (9 times Israel echoing from outside. 10 total "Israel space")
The center point of the 19th cube is:
(193+1)/2 = 343×10 (343=Vayomer Elokim/"And G-d said" × 10 sayings)
It seems this special Merkaba is some sort of container for the 10 sayings of creation of Elokim which were all "for Israel".
The remaining dots outside the 19th cube are:
67,525 - 6859 = 60,666 dots (Samech-666).
It seems the hint is that outside the "space" of Israel is the Samech-666 as a shell/klipah.
Perhaps the Surface=541 and 9×541 represents the 10 sayings of creation (Bereisheit+9) which were all "for Israel" (Midrash Rabba Genesis 1), i.e. for anyone who steps forward to have a relationship with G-d through His Torah. The rest is secondary. G-d created plurality and separateness so there would be a possibility for relationships. It is our job to answer His call.

- [3] G-d wants a relationship with us at all times as Rabbi Simcha Zissel of Kelm (one of the great mussar personalities of pre-WWII Europe) zt''l wrote:
"A great principle in joy of the heart and health of the body, and more for the service of G-d is to search for closeness (kirva) to G-d and not closeness to human beings. Besides being a big headache in many ways, there's no greater burden on a person than seeking closeness from other human beings. And what is a man that you want to search for closeness to him? He seems like a friend when it is to his benefit, or when he wants to, but "they don't stand by a person in his difficult time" (Mishna Avot 2:3). But for closeness to G-d, although He's not visible, there is no time that He doesn't want.
Rabbi Shlomo Yehudah (the "Yenuka"), a well known torah sage and "miracle worker" in Israel said in an interview on his remarkable spiritual ascent: "G-d wants people who are with Him all the way until the end. no matter what. If you are like that with Him, He is like that with you." He also said: "if the whole world is against you but G-d is with you, you will win. And if the whole world is with you but not G-d. You lost it all. For eventually you will be all alone - the body will be sent to the grave and 'his soul will mourn on himself' (Job 14:22)" translated from hebrew here: 613tube.com/watch/?v=GFgrR9_-cH8 return to text
Know my precious son, that the main wealth of a person is that which is in a person's hand and no one else can touch. All the more so, it should not depend on other people's whims. And one who seeks closeness to human beings, he is in need of gifts from flesh and blood. There's no difference between seeking physical gifts from others and seeking closeness (emotional gifts) from them. It's all the same. And therefore, there is no greater poor man than one who seeks closeness and love from others, and there is no greater wealth than he who has removed from himself the desire to be loved by other human beings. - (Sefer Zikaron Beit Kelm pg.265)
- [4] Everything follows the initiation.
A point is ultimate Chochmah-wisdom, both kinds, one that comes from Ayin-nothingness and one that is defined. So it is 0 and 1. "1" is the building block to all other numbers - chochmah-wisdom.
Star 13, points to that wisdom as it is perfect from the sides, so even though it expands and builds, it says "one" (אחד =13).
Again "1" is the building block to all other numbers - chochmah.
Then 37 Still says one as it is יחידה "singular".
Then 73 says Chochmah חכמה itself by regular definition.
All of those are the first 4 star numbers.
Now since 13 is also about love אהבה and love is about unification which is also a chochmah idea, to unite and become a single - 1 unit and the star numbers are uniting 2 opposites, two directly opposite triangles, then it is also about unification and love.
Wisdom is the source for kindness and oneness. So that's why all the rest of the pattern can start elaborating on it more and more, but in their core, they are pointing at this and derive from it...
6 and Space
Take a coin (or better yet, a 'perfect circle') and have as many such coins/circles around it, the maximum you can put is 6, not only that, but also it will be completely tight.
Now, from these 6, we have 6 sides, we get 6 outward projections from the perfect inner circle using those, so we get the first start: 13. The rest are following this same perfection.
The six represents space as a containment, the outer shell, up-down-left-right-forward-backwards and inside is the void, just like Gevurah.
When we have a sphere as a shell without anything inside it is represented via 6 as a minimalistic concept. This is the creation of space and matter, the inside is "Ayin" (nothingness) and outside is "Ein Sof" (infinite light), the inside is "Ayin-point" and outside is "Ein Sof".
Once a central point is defined, and it is defined even though "empty" is an indirect measure, like light and the concept of being awake using the body..
So when the inner point is defined by itself you get the Sabbath, which is the central point, and retroactively you understand it was defining all of it even before it was the defined source of the blessing but now it is whole and blessed.
A cube is similar but it lacks the characteristic of being the same distance from the central point from everywhere.
But the concept of the Gevurah being 216 (6*6*6) the perimeter of Triangle 73 (2701) reflects the idea of having a vessel to contain 'something' to be defined.
That something is the Torah (see section: "6 days and Sabbath" footnote 1) and the light of kedushah (holiness), and the sitra achra tries to blacken it and make it a void and remove the light this is why the power of the angel is סמאל from לסמא "to make blind", not because one can really remove the light, but one can conceal it or make one not see.. (heard from Oren Evron)
I asked him why 6 is so special in creation, 6 letters of Bereisheit, 6 words after, etc. and he replied: "This way of looking at it comes from the 'flower of life' ". end quote.
(This is a topic I don't know much about. But it seems to appear somewhat in embryo development under the microscope. Some say, the early universe itself formed in a similar manner)
I haven't seen any Torah sources for this "Flower of Life" AKA "seed of life" diagram so I will leave it at that.
There is however a Zohar which expounds the first word "Bereishit" (בְּרֵאשִׁית) as "Bara Sheit" (בָּרָא שִׁית) - meaning "He created six" (Zohar I (Bereishit) 2b) and this refers to the 6 Sefirot of Tiferet group: Chesed, Gevurah, Tiferet, Netzach, Hod, Yesod.
Mathematically, Bereisheit = 913 and 6×913=Genesis 1:1 Milui (letter expansion).
I noticed also:
The first 3 Sefirot: Chesed + Gevurah + Tiferet = 372
The last 3 Sefirot: Netzach + Hod + Yesod = 35
Total = 372 + 35 = 1612 (crown of Brit) = 26×62 and 1612+2161=3773 as we have seen in section "Divine symmetries".
This is very interesting as Tiferet is linked to the Tetragramaton (26) (and 26 first appears at the 6th digit of Pi).
Note also that the 6th Triangular number = 3×7. The 6th Star = 181 = 42nd prime = centroid of Triangle 28 which makes up the Israel Star and Israel Star (541) is center point of Tiferet (1081).
As usual, behind every door opened lies more doors with bigger and deeper questions. For this is the way of divine wisdom. It is endless study. The scientists are finding the same phenomena in nature especially in physics and microbiology - an infinity of mathematical and biological complexity. Nowhere is this more evident than in the development of the human embryo. See the amazing book "Nature's Destiny" by biochemist Michael Denton.
First Letter - Beit
Regarding the first letter in the Torah - "Beit" Oren told me:
In the Torah scroll, we spell Beit without a point inside (ב), and then the oral Torah reveals there actually is a point there. We identify this initial point inside the beit (בּ) from the Torah itself as Beit means house/home in the sense of "inside" - what is inside. And you look there, in the written Torah and see "nothing", that is the point of Keter Ayin from which Chochmah comes. There are two states for the point, defined by not defining it, but rather the outside of it, and the other way around. Does the circle define the point, or the point defines the circle?
Furthermore, when we write this Beit, we must put ink on the parchment/leather , the very first ink drop, the minimal ink, is the first concealment of the light, which is Lavan-white (לבן = 82) and it literally is the beginning of the first capital Beit. More over, the Lavan-white color is לבן in Hebrew and not only does it have the total of 82, but it has the separation for 32 and 50, לב and ן which is for the 32 paths of wisdom and 50 gates of Binah, on this separation, one can note as a side note that 32 is X and the 50 is Y where the 50 can be reduced to 5 and you get 37.
Not only is that separation super important in terms of what is written in Sefer Yezirah etc, but it also corresponds to the split of the first verse according to the oral Torah's separation with the Atnachta (pause cantillation note): בראשית ברא אלהי'ם the first half (14 letters) with 32 small gematria and then את השמים ואת הארץ the second half (another 14 letters) with total of 50.
As for the 541 star:
When the person says Baruch, he is pouring in a seed that inside the central point of what is going to be the womb of his own structure if he connects it properly, then when he says ATA he makes the 406 triangle if done properly, So the "Baruch" is like the first point of contact that emergences as the source of the blessing and ability to prosper it is in the central point, but until he says "ata" it is "pointless" as it has no structure to hold it yet, therefore he must not think anything else, no distractions and think of "ata" properly to make the vessel.
When done properly, the person gets a reflection of his own doing as another 406 comes right back at him, collides and joins with the 271 hexagon and 6 "45" triangles outside, the 541 star. These 45 triangles "say" "Adam" to all directions, for they are pointing at this person to be called "adam". When? When he is elevated to a status called "Israel" and has this magnificent connection to the source of the blessing, the source of life, the source of creation, Hash-em: Ata. Ata means you are here and I feel your presence; it is not just speaking to "Go-d" it recognizes the presence of Hash-em right here right now.
This is also why the 45 is not only for Adam but also for י-הוה Havaya Miluy Alfin (aleph letter expansion) יוד הא ואו הא, the alfin miluy מה =45 is for the connection between the upper part and the lower part via the connector which is the central point being part of the connecting Vav.Star 25
Note also that there is much symbolism in the numerical balances of the mirrored 73rd Triangle (2701 dots each). The Star formed is the 25th Star of David figurate like the Gematria of "Koh" כה as in "thus (Koh) says G-d" (כה אמר י-הוה =292=73×22), the expression used by the prophets in the Bible to transmit their prophecy (e.g. Exodus 4:22, 5:1, 7:17 etc.).
The word "Koh" (כה) is one of the most pregnant terms in Kabalah. While it is often translated simply as "thus", כה is actually a code word for the Shechina (divine presence). It serves as a technical term for how the Divine enters the physical world. There are layers of meanings and connections such as the 25th word in the Torah is "light" in the verse "let there be light" (Gen.1:3). The Shemah Yisrael has 25 letters (the declaration of G-d's Unity), the Priestly Blessing: It begins with "Koh Tevarachu" (Koh shall you bless...). The Priests draw down the blessing through the Shechina (Koh) to the physical world.. and much more.
The 25th Star has 3601=13×277 where 277 is "seed" (זרע) as in the "seed of life" we touched on a bit (Oren Evron). See the picture on the right for a glimpse of some numerical hints in the 25th Star. return to text
- [5] The Gematria of Genesis 1:1 = 2701 = 37 × 73
37 and 73 are MIRROR REFLECTIVE and CENTER POINTS of each other.
I ran a computer scan of one billion+ integers which are:
(1) mirror reflective and
(2) center points of each other.
The results:
73,37
793,397
7993,3997
79993,39997
799993,399997
7999993,3999997
79999993,39999997
799999993,399999997
....
Thus, the series is an expansion of the initial 73 and 37 with 9s inside growth factor.
The first pair 37 and 73 are both star of david numbers.
The series breaks down however, as in the next pair, 793 is a star of david number (the 12th) but it's mirror (397) is not.
Likewise for the next pair: 7993 is a star of david number (the 37th) but it's mirror (3997) is not.
7993 is the last number in this series which is a star of david number. This is because Star of David numbers are constructed from 12 triangles surrounding a center point (as above). So after substracting 1 for the center point and dividing by 12 we get:Star # dots (dots-1)÷12 Star of David? 4 73 6 yes 12 793 66 yes 37 7993 666 yes - 79993 6666 no - 799993 66666 no - 7999993 666666 no - .... .... no
It is a mathematical fact that the ONLY repetitive digit triangular numbers in all of math are 55,66,666. Thus 7993 which is Star 37 is the final Star in this mathematical series since 666 is the last repetitive digit triangular number.
For the 37 expansion, substracting 1 and dividing by 12 gives:
None are star of david numbers except 37 since 33,333,3333,... until infinity are never triangular numbers as before.Star # dots (dots-1)÷12 Star of David? 3 37 3 yes - 397 33 no - 3997 333 no - 39997 3333 no - 399997 33333 no - 3999997 333333 no - .... .... no
The metaphysical significance of this is unclear. But it highlights the uniqueness of the first set 37,73 which are perfect, the only where both are star numbers, a unique and shiny beautiful star of stars. return to text
- [6] I think 77 is mainly for מזל (Mazel). This word appears in Kings II 23:5 and means stars/constellations. Star 77 = 35113 dots = 1×13×37×73, the multiplication of all star numbers until 73=wisdom. This is the situation.. You see, we need to look at the functionality of math, the numbers, their shapes and their meaning as a language it is a communication system.
So what is 'multiplication'? it is extended power, if it is self-multiplication the power comes from self-reaffirming structure, in this case the multiplication – i.e the big accumulation of power comes from "Star" numbers, the stars up until 73rd which represents both the bigger star in the multiplication as well as the collapse back to 1 as it is, in the communication sense: Chochmah most and for most which is the limit, the initiation from start and the end from bottom, so you could say this the other way around: it is 73×37×13×1 i.e start with the initial star formation, the mazel starts there where there is definition of space etc, and then it transcends to Earth from the stars/constellations where the lens becomes smaller and more focused, until it reaches the ultimate point the field of unification into the Holy temple (into the center point of creation).
Chochmah is a unified unbreakable point, a singularity that allows Binah to take control, 37 is again the same power but with more focused structure it comes from the order itself, the order of the letters, 13 is the goal of unification of the two sides as it is one "echad" itself and it is for love coming into a single identity 1. A perfect cycle where 1 itself represents point coming back to Chochmah. More over: there probably are fractals of this (heard from Oren Evron).
Interestingly, the first 10 star numbers until Israel multiplied:
1×13×37×73×121×181×253×337×433×541
=15359160021942708829
The sum of thousands: =15+359+160+021+942+708+829 =37×82 (Hevel × Peh-Beit) and the digit sum is 82
In the book Ginat Egoz, the Rabbi shows that the Sum of Thousands is a system of great magnitude that reveals hidden reality. That is the only book so far that I have read that shows this system. return to text
