The Signature
Of
The Artist
By: Ashley Keller...Pi,<br />The Signature<br />Of<br />The Artist<br />By: Ashley Keller<br /><br />What if I showed you Pi AND the other side of the coin? What would that do or mean to you? Would it solve a problem, answer a question, neither, both? If you could see all three sides of the coin, would you be able to see into the 4th dimension? It’s only with a hard right angle that you can see into another dimension. What if I could show you a shape that you've never seen before, but somehow it’s before you every day? Would it matter at all to you? At the same time, how could it not?<br /><br />Pi is the ratio between the circumference and diameter of a circle. According to www.exploratiorium.edu, Pi was first calculated by the great mathematical genius, Archimedes of Syracuse (287-212BC) when figuring the area of a circle. Pi was the area that remained and could not be accounted for. It is the never-ending number and a mathematical problem that can’t be solved. Experts say that it has been calculated by computers millions and millions of times without repletion or ending. I say, consider this: If Pi is a number that never ends, how can you add to it? If it never ends, how can you subtract from it? If it never ends, how can you even divide it by itself or one? Try to do all of those things to Pi, considering the fact that it never ends to begin with. <br /><br />3.141592653589793238462643383279502…<br /><br />It must stop before any of those functions can be performed. And you can stop it. But only by dividing it by three. And it will end three digits to the right of the decimal. Let me show you. Get a piece of paper and do this long division. The first eleven digits of Pi are (you won’t need all of them):<br />3.1415926535 divided by three. Three goes into three, one time. 3-3=0. Bring down the one. 01 – 0 =1. Bring down the four. Three goes into fourteen four times. 14 – 12 = 2. Bring down the one. Three goes into twenty-one, seven times. 3 x 7 = 21. BOOM!!!! From there, all basic mathematical operations are possible. <br /><br />As far as circles are concerned, <br />Pi is the third side of the coin (circle). Let me show you. Get a coin and hold it in your fingers. Close your eyes and gently rub all sides of the coin counting as you go. Do this a few times. Then open your eyes, look at it, and do the same. How many sides do you count? See, Pi is the third side of the coin. I bet you’ve always been told that a circle only has two sides! Just because you don’t always see it, doesn’t mean it’s not there. Consider the Pyramids from a bird’s eye view. You now see the four sides of a triangle. And to walk a “round” one of the Pyramids, you have to walk a square. It’s perception. A shape must be enclosed, and without a third side, enclosure can’t happen. Anything that might be inside the circle (air) would continue endlessly into space without the enclosure of the third side. Without its banding, the circle would just be two rounds. It doesn’t matter how narrow, the banding is there. The missing banding of the circle is the value of Pi and the glue that binds two rounds together to make a complete circle.<br /><br />But what’s probably most important about Pi is that <br /><br />Pi is The Signature of The Artist. It has been said that within every man, woman, and child, lies the essence of God. The “Symbol” (Signature) Pi can be seen in our ribs, our brain, our heart, our blood vessels, muscles, tendons, etc. The Signature can be seen in all vegetation. In trees, it can be seen in and on their trunks, limbs, branches, leaves, fruits and roots (individually and collectively). It can even be seen within an enlargement of the smallest living microbe known to mankind. It appears that The Artist signs His work. We should really take this one seriously!<br /><br /><br /> <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07449360355707732956noreply@blogger.com
