THE SIMPLE GUIDE TO
NATURE’S UNITY LANGUAGE OF
SYMMETRY
THE AMAZING SIMPLICITY OF
SYMMETRY
Symmetry is so simple (elegant) that we constantly overlook it. Someone who did not overlook it, but loved the beauty and simplicity of symmetry, was Albert Einstein. His revolutionary theories ofrelativity, as we will see, mean just one thing:SYMMETRY
“Einstein (…) he is a key figure in the history of symmetry: it was
Einstein, above all others, who set in motion the web of events that
turned the mathematics of symmetry into fundamental physics.”
Ian Stewart
(Why Beauty is Truth, 2007, p.173)
It is difficult:
- for our senses to recognize simplicity as it is so abstract, hence general (transcendent) and in an immaterial (mathematical) way omnipresent,
- for our senses not to be overwhelmed by symmetry’screativity (abundance, local presence in infinite scenarios) which to our senses can be displayed in seeminglycountless (infinite)different manifestations (diversity).
“Despite what you’ve been told, beauty is not really in the eye of the
beholder (...) One of the primary determinants of attractiveness is a
signal that has proven useful over millennia for finding healthy and
fit partners to have babies with (...): bilateral symmetry (...) It
doesn’t get much conscious attention because your brain is so good
at assessing symmetry that it constructs your feeling of attraction
almost instantaneously.”
Nicholas Epley
(Mindwise, 2014, p.25)
“…The Language of the Kabbalists is theLanguage of Branches
(…) This means that the branches are determined by the roots which
are their stamp that must exist in the Upper World (…) they
understand one another completely through precise definitions that
cannot be misunderstood since every single Branch has its own
specific natural definition...”

(The Wisdom of Truth, 2008, p. 107-109)
Let us acquaint ourselves with this language by doing a super simple exercise using the fundamental, symmetric language of Nature
All thebold words and words in(brackets) are synonyms, i.e., words with thesame meaning for symmetry.
Put differently, these words essentially have the same root as they are offspring (branches) of symmetry.
Keep looking for thesebold words as well as the words in(brackets), a
