Growth is an aspect of change and we, human beings are depended on growth, for instance for our food. Growth can be measured linear. As a child I was measured once in a while. Small markings on the wall resembling my growth. Linear measuring is used for distances and time. You have to realize, that this one way to analyze growth. There are many other ways. I already told you about the exponential aspect of growth, where after a while, the figures explode through the roof. In 2011 the world population was estimated to be about 7 billion people. Every year there is a growth of almost 2 percent. This means, that in 30 – 40 years the world population will have doubled! This means a giant claim on our food resources. But nobody seems to care. In my own country we are flooding precious farming land for leisure or nature. Instead we should prepare for the future. But instead all countries on this planet are planning for war. A trillion dollars year are spend, world wide. Half of the budget is American, a country which is near to a social collapse and has an immense debt, which is still growing.
The third way to measure growth is an aspect of “sacred gerometry”, called the “Fibonacci-sequence”. It is a sequence, which is found in nature. It is found in artichokes, in sun-flowers and in sea-shells. The pattern (sequence) is visible in trees and even in the human body. How is the sequence constructed, made visible? According to Leonardo Pisano nature manifests imminent laws in their growth-patters as follows: 0-1-1-2-3-5-8-13 etc. Just check a flower. The famous temples of Karnak in Egypt,are dedicated to Nature and is constructed conform the “Fibonacci-sequence”. It was a way to guide the initiation of the visitors. An initiation into the secrets of nature. This famous sequence can also be expressed in geometrical forms and is found in famous paintings like Leonardo's “Mona Lisa”. This I call secret knowledge. Not forbidden or dangerous, but it makes 4-dimensional growth possible. It is an invisible science, a tool.
Why I am not satisfied? Because, when you use them as tools, you have to admit that they are insufficient to conquer suffering. For me, it has to do with the number 0. The symbol for nothing and making it possible to divide it. Less than nothing. 0 is just a tool and a symbol for astonishment and wonder. But here it stops. Phi drives you mad! Growth is natural way of expression for an organism, but when does something new start. Not when we add 0 and 1, to put a step forward, following the other Leonardo. I like to start counting with one. One plus one is nothing new, I prefer change. One plus one is 3!
