Fascinating Patterns From A Series Of Numbers

The ability to make connection with different types of infomation is recognised as a higher level cognitive skill. Among these higher level skills, is also the ability to infer; to interpolate; to extrapolate; to deduce.  So is the ability to see patterns; to read and draw conclusion and meaning from different categories of information. All these abilities working in tendem, takes the human being into exciting areas of inventions.

There is more.

Besides the cognitive aspect of processing information, is the affective area of feeling: of wonder and reverence. 

There is the aspect of sensing, commonly called intuition.

And then there is the elusive aspect that the mystics experience: spirituality. A presence that they call: Abba; Allah; Yewah.

In the midst of an alive human being is the reality of growth itself in nature.

Why does growth takes place the way it does? There is a typical physical path. There is a fixed chemical formation. There is a predictable biological structure. There is a design coherence. There is a mathematical order. There is an inherent calibrated-auto-time-clock guiding what-happens-where-when in the growing-organism. 

These are very intriguing aspects. Especially the awareness that the smallest in an individual entity to the largest in the solar system share similiar growth patterns!

Here. Revisit the areas of fascination:
