MATHEMATICS AND<br />
SPIRITUALITY<br />
John Sjovik<br />
There is a lot written about mathematics, and the<br />
spiritual, mystical and magical side to it. There are<br />
books, articles and plenty of information and analysis<br />
on the internet. What I write in this article is a selection<br />
of my own thoughts and feelings; what I have<br />
channelled through interaction with Spirit. I have made<br />
no attempt at being neither complete nor conclusive in<br />
my treatment of the vast subject of mathematics and<br />
spirituality.<br />
So is there something to it? Is there magic in numbers?<br />
Is there numbers in magic?<br />
When I was a kid, arithmetic was my first journey into<br />
the world of mathematics. My childhood was riddled<br />
with insecurity and anxiety. When I learned that<br />
addition, subtraction, multiplication and division always<br />
followed the same rules, I was fascinated. 2 + 3 = 5<br />
today. The addition would render the same result<br />
tomorrow as it did yesterday. Also next year, 2 + 3<br />
would result in 5. Even with a new teacher in school or<br />
a new government in parliament, 2 +3 would still be 5.<br />
I realized that I could trust arithmetic. Addition and the<br />
other basic ways of calculation became my friends. I<br />
could rely on them. They would never fail me. Finally,<br />
there was something in my life that never changed.<br />
Arithmetic was not whimsical, capricious or based on<br />
serendipity. It was magically consistent and never<br />
changing.<br />
Numbers are symbols. It is important to keep that in<br />
mind. When I was a boy, I found myself particularly<br />
fascinated with the number 7. I had no idea why. I had<br />
never come across a 7, never seen one in the woods<br />
near where I lived. The farmers, my family visited to<br />
buy potatoes, apples and honey, had fruit trees, bees<br />
and cows. They did not have any 7s.<br />
