Ashtanga Yoga Series in under 4 Minutes

So I saw this on the "PeaceLoveYoga" blog and I thought it was neat.  I especially like the cat curling up on the guy during his savasana. =)




(I've only done Ashtanga once in my life. I can't wait to get better acquainted with this style of Hatha Yoga.)

Reverberations from John Dee and Edward 'Talbot' Kelly's Sessions with Uriel

I stumbled upon a brilliant article by Vincent Bridges concerning the 16th century British Royal Astrologer, spy, and occultist mystic — John Dee.

Those with a faint interest in linguistics will have an intellectual orgasm whilst reading about the Ophanic/Enochian language transmitted to Kelly, while he was in trance and recorded by John Dee in his 'Spiritual Diaries.'  The object that allowed for such divine transmission was provided by a 'smoky quartz egg,' which surprisingly is still in existence and on display in the Manuscript Room of the British Museum.  The egg was used primarily as a scrying tool by the two magi.

The most fascinating result of these encounters over 7 years was that the language recorded appears in structure to have underlying resemblance to our own DNA code.  Like the triplet codons of human DNA coding, Ophanic also has a triplet-like quality with three groups of seven letters.  The 'letters' or characters are arranged in a 8 x 8 arrangement so that there is a total of 64 Enochian characters, corresponding to 64 possible codons in the human genome (since there are 4 kinds of RNA (or DNA nucleoteides, there are 4 ^3 or 64 possible codons.  I find the synchronicity of this information amazing, since I just had to study this information for my Anatomy & Physiology quiz, where I read about DNA and RNA protein synthesis).


While, I am not fully convinced of the relationship between human DNA code and this Enochian language, I find this research to be very intriguing and hopes Bridges and others delves into this more deeply.

Bridges continues on to talk about the additional 4th dimension, which is where he loses me.  "It indeed is possible to think of the Ophanic 4D octahedron alphabetic grid as a seed containing all possible DNA derived probability waves; in other words, a model of the literal matrix of creation."
