Unit: As a number, it remains indivisible, irreversible, multiplying with itself remains the same.

Some of the names given to it by the Pythagoreans are God, Creator, Mind, Male-Female, Chaos matter, Cognitive Reason, Circle Point, Central Fire Deity.

One is the Labyrinth, one centre, one Minotaur as a target, one who will fight with him to defeat or be defeated. No one else can do the work he is called to do one! The hero! But he can be helped. To offer knowledge to indicate the street, as happened to Theseus by Ariadne.

From what energy was the power for cooperation, the offering of the secret of knowledge? But, obviously, erotic. Let us not forget that Theseus is the chief hero whose sexual behaviour – heroic acts, virtuous life, seeking and finding the Truth – attracts the Love of Gods and people. And Ariadne was, not only a daughter of Minos but also referred to as the wife of Dionysus.

So I would say that Ariadne, who is a “priest” (between Gods and people), loved and did not fall in love with Theseus. (I will clarify below). This is the mythical hero, manages to operate the power of Virtue, which derives from his Erotic energy.

Douada: But since one is the hero who will fight with the Minotaur, why are two boys and girls – and even seven – sent? We know that this was Minoa’s demand. Who was the Minos we saw before? Demetrius, taught by Zeus himself his father and having direct communication with him, periodically every nine years.

Was it possible that the demigod, who was famous throughout the world for his righteousness, sacrificed in a monster (?) The most remarkable shots of Greece? And what meaning could the participation of the youths in neutralizing a monster?

Luckily, the field of activity of the two groups is preserved in the myth. They are taught by Ariadne her mysterious dance and when they return to their homeland they are stationed in Delos – after Theseus first left as we said Ariadne in Naxos – we hear strange events happen.

Theseus, to honor-God-Apollo-who, also has the title “Weekly”, that is, seven-year-old, dedicates him to Aphrodite’s dawn of Ariadne and, together with the other youngsters and virgins, Ariadne, whose manoeuvres represent the corridors of the Labyrinth.

We see clearly that the young people of Athens accepted, in Crete, an initiation. This initiation relates to the Labyrinth. The dance of the two heterosexual groups symbolizes the eternal creative blending of masculinity with femininity under the right conditions.

But please, be careful that I speak of masculinity and femininity (and not of the male and female as sex) because I do not want you to polarize in this and only the face.

I think we will avoid misunderstanding if the meaning of male power is seen in correspondence with the energetic power and the concept of the female power, in correspondence with the passive force. Of course, both of these forces are found in each sex, just as the battery-battery has a positive and negative pole, outgoing and incoming force, which are integrated into a circuit, by inserting the energy transducer into a common outward force electricity).

You realize, of course, that here is the concept of the third power, the equilibrium, to complete the system.

If we follow the corridors of the Labyrinth – having its entrance to the North -, we notice that to get inside it, we make pendulous movements with the first right-handed (eg male) and the left-handed (feminine).

We follow four right-handed and three left-handed routes, which together with the entrance to the centre of the Labyrinth become four. That is, after seven paths, the eighth is the goal capture path. (Here we associate with the octave law).

To finish with the double as a symbol of male and female power, I reveal that this duality is distinguished in the myth in three levels. They are the two groups of young people who surround Theseus and of course, symbolize our social environment. I would even say the bipolarity of human society.

It is the pair, Theseus + Ariadne, which symbolizes his personal contact with the bipolarity of society and, finally, is the dipole Theseus + Minotaur, which symbolizes individual bipolarity. Because the Minotaur monster is nothing more than the ” monster ” that every one of us conceals inside, and when he realizes existence, he must go to a Labyrinth to be able to see it face to face and exterminate it, sometimes gain the power.

How true and beautiful symbolism. Because the Minotaur in the body – as a phenomenon – is a human, while in essence – ahead – it is a bull. The animal, which is a symbol of the power of passions. It is no coincidence that the Christian hagiographic tradition thus depicts the Devil-Satan.

At the centre of the Labyrinth, there is the treasure, but it is guarded – hence hidden – by the monster. (Passions, the greatest of which is self-love, pride, selfishness, personified by the Minotaur, Devil-Satan).

When the mighty hero-initiated in the cleansing and evolving law of the octaves, walks through the seven corridors of the Labyrinth, he reaches the centre of the exalted, illuminated, non-existent-his unconscious psyche-therefore perfectly strong-and kills the Minotaur mechanics and mechanism, laziness and joy, bipolarity and divisiveness, diabolicity, Satan hiding inside.

Then, he sees the treasure shining in front of him, and then he becomes a triad, symbolized by the equilateral triangle.

The thesaurus is disclosed in our ˝ Kingdom of Heaven ˝, blown us ˝ Spirit˝, which then immediately bonded to the disclosed in this, ˝ in Trinity Unit ˝.

Existence is then able to function ˝ by the likeness of God. That is, to love as it is united with God -Love -can reflect it in the Universe.

Has acquired serially the New -protognori- Force, which is impossible be obtained as the soul works with the power of pleasure, which is produced analomasi libidinal energy, but conquered the erotic power, which only demands us in acts of Virtue, He holds us.

Thus the double symbol of the “man, the human machine”, which was separated from the Unit, is a symbol of God.

But be aware of this: if we accept that all of the following numbers are possible through various ideas to symbolize the creation and that the twin is “drawn” and ” attracts” – through the male and female powers – other numbers – that is to say ˝ Helatos ˝, then it is governed by the law of pleasure . But if it is “drawn” by the Unit – not a building but the Creator – it is ” Eros” and is governed by the law of Virtue. (This is exactly what the ecclesiastical hymn tells us: the gods did not make the creation despite the building).

* I also remind you that Love and Passion give exactly the same emotional experience. However, they are different from the fact that Eros to function requires the presence of the right speech, as opposed to the Potent-Passion that, in order to function, requires the abandonment of the right speech.

There are two names that were given to the double, but which I clarify and point out, that they state the two possible paths that the duality can follow – the fading man – that is, “Letter” or “Universe” and not indefinitely be called or one way or another. I say that there is exclusion, that it will be only one of them and it will depend on which power it will attract ˝ and thus in which direction it will move. The same experiential idea is found in Greek mythology about the goddess Aphrodite and above all Plato who contrasts Aphrodite Pandimos by Aphrodite Urania. On this distinction, an attempt was made to later support the contrast between “Heavenly and Terrestrial Love”. Ourania is considered to be the protector of the family, the marriage, and Pandimus of free “love”, the prostitutes, the prostitution. Of course, we consider this distinction to be simplistic, since, as Love, we consider only the fifth step against Plato, that is, the impetus-momentum of the soul to knowledge and union with the idea of ​​God, as opposed to the momentum that leads to pleasure, pleasure, the passion that Erato and Pandimus Aphrodite have set.

The above confusion of terminology, we clearly see Freud’s development of Freud’s psychoanalytic theory, since initially (1914) distinguished two groups of instincts (the Ego and the Sexuals) and later (1920) all this limited it to two basic instincts, the instinct of life and the instinct of death.

This was the instinct of life, initially called “Eros”, and later when he identified it better, that is, more focused and not general, he called it Libido.

So let’s look at the differences: The term Libido – which is valid today – means the vital mental, charged sexual energy, which drives in the search for pleasure-pleasure. Compared to the feeling of hunger, of a psychic nature, Freud is called “sexual hunger.” We believe that this Latin word, which means the momentum of sexual desire, must be related to the modern Greek liveliness that means, longing, desiring that has its root in the medieval lime-lizard = greedy, greedy, of the same root √LIX,, lick, lilac, (of the ancient). While in the concept of Love includes all the positive and productive tendencies of human life, which, in particular, by using the only psychoanalysis of the normal defense mechanism of the ego, the idealization , is the one that drives the personality into self-knowledge, self-denial, Love to the co-human commons, that is, the function of man in the likeness of God, with a word in Theosis.

You see, I believe, because here too I emphasize – as in a previous chapter – the necessity, essential for human existence, to become able to distinguish between passion, love and love.

I suppose I do not accept the existence of the Freudian instinct of death, but the aggressive-destructive human behaviours I attribute to it, I think they are due to the malfunction (absurd) of the instinct of life.

Quartet: The quartet, which according to Pythagoras symbolizes the solid, has to do with the feeling of solids when we think about the decimal system; that’s why they were called the World.

But when we think of the triadic system, then the quadruple is represented by the dozen (because of 3×4 = 12), and then the quadruple-as a dozen – symbolizes humanity.

Seven: It is not born of a mother-that is, an even number-nor a father-that is, a single number-but it comes directly from the Unit, Father of all things.

But it symbolizes the coexistence of God (Trinity), with Creation (quartet), because of 3 + 4 = 7, but also of God (as a Unit), with the two “Cathars” of His triads, Adam and Eve (1 + 3 + 3 = 7).

This is the measure, the diameter of the completed Creation, including the human society, which, as we have said, is symbolized by the dozen.

Thus, God, together with His Creation, can be symbolically intertwined with the number 22 , because it is the sum of the Trinity (Creator God and His Seal on Everything), with the Hepta (sum of God-Creation 3 + 4 = 7 ), and the Dozen (multiplying 3X4 = 12) as God creates Man in His image and His likeness, it is as if He has reiterated Himself.

So we have: 3 + 7 +12 = 22

So why do I believe – as we will see in the next part of the chapter – that Archimedes identified our known constant (π) as the ratio of the Perfect Ideal Region 22 to the diameter of 7. *

Seven of the concentric circles of the Labyrinth surrounding the centre of which the treasure is kept. It is understandable now that it is correlated with the perception of its similarity and that of the subject of the matter who obeys the law so that all its electrons are spread over seven layers around its core in which the mystery of the quarks is hidden.

* Important information also gives us the view of the evolution of man’s life in seven-year periods according to Solon and Hippocrates.

Idea: We end with the node associated with the seven because in both numbers we have a union of male and female numbers (5 + 4 = 9 and 3 + 4 = 7). Thus the Pythagoreans tried to prove that the mature child of the nine months survived, as a child of the seven months survived, but not the eighth child months, although more mature than the previous one, because the eight are divided into two male numbers (5 + 3 = 8) or two siblings (4 + 4 = 8), that is to say, power of the other sex. But in the seven there is the male power (3) as well as the female (4). (Of course, we do not see this data, in the light of the intervention of modern technology and science).

The node, however, is the one which declares the integration of the numbers – and thus the general integration – into the decimal system and the triple triadicity in the triadic system.

It is the emblem of Matter, which, although differentiated, is never destroyed. So the number nine (9) multiplied by any number always reproduces itself, that is, it gives the theosophical sum always (9). (Theosophical is called the continuous sum of the digits of a number until we arrive at a one-digit number).

Here I also let you know that any number multiplied by three (3) and multiples, always gives a theosophical sum of 3, 6 or 9.

However, the names of the nine who are more helpful in understanding his participation in the myth of the Labyrinth are Telesphorus, Tenas because he is born of the Trinity and is Excommunicated from the Controversy. In fact, man is dispensed with the bipolar conflict – which, as we have said, is bipolar as a result of the distortion of his logic – after his seventh course in the Soul Labyrinth, the vision of the Truth and the killing of his Minotaur. The course in the corridors of the Labyrinth, under the influence of the male and female forces, both social (symbolized by the two groups of young people) and the atomic relationship (Theseus with Ariadne, Minotaur and his goal) symbolizes the struggle, the struggle of man, for his climb on the scale of the Virtues .

During this climbing, Libya, -at turning energy by the power of pleasure, pulls it down, while the Eros-arsenic energy through the power of Areti, draws it upwards.

In the plan view of the Labyrinth, we see the first right-handed force-male (blue) – to introduce it approximately in the middle of the Labyrinth, but the next power-left-handed first female (red) – brings it to its periphery. The next male, though in the outermost corridor, forces the second female power to bring him closer to the centre. The next male man succeeds in separating only one wall from the target. But the next female resists even pushing it back to the periphery but has fallen significantly.

The last male forces the last feminine to join, and thus it is the entrance to the centre of the Labyrinth. (See figure below)

This entry is along with the revelation of the goal, the killing of the Minotaur-old man – and the intrusion of the uncovered Truth, the eighth tier. The endovlitheisa (intercalated,) not Truth, brings about our resurrection, the birth of the New Man, the integrated, the Perfect, the Human Love of Man 9^th grade, the man who lives in the image and likeness of God.

This Man – because he is still a man – is shouting like Peter on the Mount of Transfiguration, “Lord, they are so beautiful and good here! Let us stay forever, having a scene for you, one for Elijah and one for Moses.

But the descent from the Mount and the exit from the Labyrinth is imperative. Ariadne’s thread is there, reminds and helps for the exit.

The winner of the Labyrinth, the Enlightened Hero, must go out into the world because he does not lighten and put him under his belt-and push the people into the struggle with the Minotaur that lies in the depths of their Soul.

For there is buried in the depths of the Soul Labyrinth and the great, abominable and omnipotent treasure, the “is a Spirit”, who expects us to unite with Love.

He has to go out because he reminds him very much of the Sacrament of the Divine Eucharist, through which he hears the voice of the First of the Risen Anastasia saying: ˝ You have always been tempted by the nations ˝, and that: ½ Great is called who taketh and teach people ˝.

See the figures below for how much the top view of the Labyrinth fits in both the brain sections (the frontal and the abdominal). The centre of the Labyrinth coincides with the hypothalamus and the pituitary gland.

So there in the centre of the Labyrinth is the focal point of everything that connects us to our animal life (Minotaur-Paleohegephalus-Limbic system), while in the cortex of the brain (Theseus-Neocephalus) lies what can connect us-prove the Human – Our nature.

Looking at the above images, we find that all the stimuli from the environment and the border zone of our existence – our sensory organs – enter through the spinal cord and the medulla in the labyrinth of the brain. First in the primitive-primitive, where all the automatic-unconscious mechanisms and the limbic system are located, the human brain (the bark). After processing them, following a parallel but centrifugal route, they give orders to the muscular-moving members of our physical existence – especially our speech and hands – and thus we participate and influence our environment, our relationships. So we understand that the whole game is played on the tragic stadium of the limbic system, between old and new brain; whether our behaviour will be determined by the animal or human brain. The point is not to prevail against each other – since, as a rule, the winner is always the animal – but to harmonize, from the hegemonic (the Socratic, Stoic philosophers), the “ in the Spirit ” against Christ. This harmonization is achieved through the hegemonic-Spirit, with the fall of the force of passions to the level of the needs of our living being and confirms the death of the Minotaur for each of us.
