How the World Is Made: The Story of Creation According to Sacred Geometry

Molto interessante per capire le basi della geometria sacra

I just love this book, it opens up a deeper view on our existence I guess many of us have yet to learn. How does it do that? Bringing back all the beautiful colours and re-igniting our awareness of natural, some would say divine, order. Like with the fishes in the tank in the above illustration... Today, on the 24th of February 2022, I pray that all people on this planet may return to this natural order, especially those, who still look for solutions through agression. May the field of consciousness in which we all swim, even if we don't realize, let our prayers and healing energies reach the hearts of those people who need ist the most 🧡🙏

John Michell's book is a work of a true artist who, like a real Renaissance man, does not draw lines between exact sciences and artistic inspiration. The illustrator is on the same wave with the author, and his mind-captivating illustrations create the world of magic, letting the reader enter an enchanted forest of extraordinary ideas of ancient thinkers. Words, numbers and the art of mesmerizing geometric forms open the gates of wonder even for those who are not great mathematicians (sorry, Pythagoras!). Yes, the text and the accompanying it art demand some time and intellectual effort, but the rewards are beyond limitations! Like Virgil, the author leads the reader through a variety of complex concepts, and the entire experience is both intellectual and poetic.

Uno dei testi di riferimento sulla geometria sacra. John Michell è una garanzia!

Great Book for anyone interested in such subjects. I own Quadrivium by Wooden Books, it got me interested in this subject and was a great introduction to Sacred Geometry among other things like Geometry in Music, etc. I feel that if you can grasp the concepts expressed in that book, this book by John Michell should be your next read. The book consists of 1-2 pages for each image on the written subject, which are both very interesting to gaze at and/or study, and are also required in order to fully grasp the related Text. The text takes the reader through the basic introduction of each chapter & page etc, before going into explanations and proofing, that can sometimes be quite in depth and require the reader to concentrate, or in my case, re-read a sentence from time to time. The content may require imagination to understand a the concept, and even an interest in number to fully understand some of the aspects. People who know a little about Sacred Geometry will not be disappointed. Although this book isn't "huge" and i could casually read it within a few days, this book will take many future hours & study sessions at my desk if i want to fully understand the all content here.
