Volume appears to be created by volume dividing volume
Schwaller Came to believe that
The entirety of Egyptian Mathematics
and philosophy was based on the notion that
the primary
expression of Being
is
Volume
Specifically
Three dimensional Form
Where Form is formed
from a Surface formed
from a line formed
from a point
There fo/u/re
A n apex of a Volume is any point
A Vertex of a volume is any edge/line
A Surface of a Volume is any Face/area
Every volume then defines every other volume
by the identity of the points
lines and forms forming
the surfaces
defining
the
interior
. : .
and
Exterior
volume/z identified
as the aether . : . and
Geometry points to the
shapes the way the stars form
ideas of form
from
light
. : .
The point,
the first irreducible One,
generates the line by addition,
for any it (point) cannot manifest itself
- [line]-
by multiplication since
1 times 1 is always 1
and likewise
1 times a point always
remains a point ...
The point will become a line
by being added to another point
or
by separating one point into two .:
which amounts to the same thing : .
Hence, in creation, addition and division
have the same effect . : .
multiplication
is
the inverse of
Division
Hence by the definition of the words used
the irreducible One
if divisible
must be assumed
to be a multiplicity—
and we now know
how this original conflict is resolved:
by under standing the triple nature
of the irreducible One,
i.e., the quality
which allows one to conceive
the procreating function,
during which
addition being the consequence of division,
division simultaneously must be
no function other than addition—
and division of UNITY generates
multiplication as the inverse
of itself neither of which
can exist in the absence of the other
I = the generative point
II = the point generated by division
III = the point generated by addition
The number III is the effect of I.
The number II is generated by division,
the cause not yet having an effect.
The point can only create by addition
division is addition,
Addition or division create - line
line can only pro~create —
and never create :.
A line added to itself is,
and always remains,
a line,
where
as soon as a Line is multiplied by itself,
a line becomes a face . : .
The numbers 1, 3, 5, 7
do not contain any procreated form
and so
are the creative numbers
They are the prime and un~composed numbers.
they generate all figures and forms
and
with regard to the concrete/visible world
play,
the same role that the irreducible One
plays
with regard to the abstract/in visible world.
these creative numbers
By addition
can produce
other prime or un~composed numbers
in the sense of pro~creation such as 11
which is the first representation in the concrete world of the function of II in the abstract world.
This is because 11 is intermediary, just as II is and
results from an addition of 1, 3, 5, and 7,
and does not in~volve multiplication.
The numbers 1, 3, 5, 7 are the generators
in the phase of id~eat~ion . : .
By multiplication with themselves they : .
produce faces,
are only engendered by addition,
and
provide the perfect transition from
the abstract to the concrete
through the phases of idea~t-ion . : .
We have said that the square is the first stable face
By stable we mean : :
is the consequence of : :
a function: always equal
and
produces no complex effect : . : . :
as a second function
that diverges from
the natural consequence
of the generation of the first function.
the first face is not The face which has four sides
for
to establish a face
three vertices are sufficient
so that the first face is therefore
the
triangle.
The triangle,
as it is multiplied by itself,
produces a circle
The triangle,
as it is divided by itself,
produces a square
the first stable face of the square,
as we shall see in the next cycle
differs in this facet
As
The
function
presiding over
the cycle of ideation
is the multiplication aka
the inverse division
of a
simple or complex
unity
not itself
a
root
en~gen~dered by
The
Function
of
multiplication
The natural consequence of this function is
the creation of the face.
The triangle does not conform to this law.
It is a face engendered
by
the first scission
Addition aka Division
Not
by
multiplication aka subtraction
it
aka the triangle
engenders a stable face
as a result of multiplying itself
by itself by
removing the ambiguity
for it
As it
is not really a definitively
constituted
AKA
a stable face
The first perfect triangle would therefore be one that would fulfill the following conditions:
first: to be the first face;second: to be constituted by three vertices;third: to en~gender a stable face by multiplying itself;fourth: to be con~stitut/able/ed by a stable face
The apparently insurmountable difficulty that human reason encounters here is easily resolved by the knowledge
that this short study of numbers
has given us.
The first triangle fulfills
the Second and Third conditions
the first and the fourth conditions
are not fulfilled
Indeed
there cannot be a face which only includes
one
unit of height to
two
units of length
for
One unit of height added to two units of length
constitutes a LINE and not a face.
The second triangle fulfills the first, second, and third conditions. The fourth condition will therefore be met, beginning with the third triangle: This constitutes the tetraktys or quaternary,
![]() |
See the cube in the hexagon Vertex Middle bottom Line Center Dot Hides its double Apex is base of the origin |
which, first:
is the first possible face;
second, is triangular/composed of three vertices;
third, engenders
by multiplication with itself
a stable face
which is 9
as was shown above;
and fourth, contains the first square
which is 4
The speed of light is approximately
186,624 miles per second
Given
the first triangle
Radius gives the opposite side length
This determines a triangle whose height
is half as great as its base.
This triangle
frames absolute Unity
the vital breath in the things of this world.
There are therefore in the quaternary triangle
actually two distinct triangles
These are the triple creative nature in the One
and this triple nature as generated
by the thrice three unities of the first triangle.
This figure, which is the first manifest triangle,
fulfilling all the conditions laid down above,
engenders the perfect square,
which is 9, for it contains all the
numbers.
In this way all squares become divisible
into two triangles,
since 4 is 1 and 3;
9 is 3 and 6; etc.
The squares, beginning with 10,
become compounds
The uneven are positive, AKA masculine numbers
form the squares of whose two triangles one is negative
and the other positive (even and uneven).
The even numbers, meanwhile, give the squares whose triangles are both negative or both positive.
We cannot enter here into any explanation of the reason for this fact.
It will be sufficient to indicate to the student that
the even numbers are all compounds:
2 equals 2 times 1
4 equals 2 times 2
6 equals 2 times 3
8 equals 2 times 4
this function determines the intermediate
AKA variant forms of the square,
such as the
the parallelograms with two unequal sides.
We have said that the essentially creative numbers are 1, 3, 5, 7 and that they establish the following principles which we find everywhere at the base of creation of the two natures.
The multiplication of any quantity by itself (procreation)
results from the addition of a positive, masculine, odd nature
to a negative, feminine, even nature.
The other figures—pentagons, hexagons, polygons—
are the effects of an addition of different
triangular and square figures,
just as the numbers above 10
are the result of addition to this 10
of the numbers 1 through 9.
The square is the stable base of forms
Second: Multiplication of the line by the line
creates the face
The first line form is the triangle
multiplication of the Face by itself
Gives the Face the first form
this is the square
Multiplying the form by itself gives the first volume
this is the cube
This constitutes the cycle of formation.
the perfect face is THE SQUARE
The perfect form,
results from the multiplication of the square:
the cube.
As in the preceding cycles,
the face, in order to become the cube,
will pass through all the phases
of polarization and ideation.
The square again becomes the point—
the point of departure—
for the form.
The first pole for the generation of the cube,
is the face.
The cycle of the polarization of the solid
therefore
begins with the face,
which
possesses a spatial tendency in one - direction only,
and is called is one - dimensional
Face/Form then proceeds to
the second dimension
The second step of generation
in order to become the third dimension
three-dimensional
Compounding the positive and negative
This last phase is
the cycle of formation
in
the cycle of formation
It is always important to recall
that each of the three cycles
is likewise subdivided into three cycles,
and that: as the cause varies
the effect varies as the result
The first cause is the point
the second the line
and the third the face
The cycle of polarization is
the phase of addition
where/by the non~dimensional
becomes the first dimension: the line.
the cycle of ideation gives the second dimension,
By multiplication of the line into
the face, and thus the face
gives the solid by multiplication
of A first multiple.
A ROOT
At the base of all creation is movement.
Addition is the first, or linear, movement.
The first multiplication is the second,
or planar, movement,
and multiplication of the latter
gives the third, or solid, movement.
In a solid, movement
