1) Galileo's Muse: Mathematics and the Arts 2011 googlebooks preview
the "akousmatikoi" (or
"listeners"), who focused on the more religious and ritualistic aspects
of Pythagoras' teachings; the "mathematikoi" (or "learners"), who
extended and developed the more mathematical and scientific work he
began.
So this first book makes the huge Snafu by claiming that the "mathematikoi" were the true initiates to Pythagorean secrets! It's actually the other way around.
Note that in ancient
Greet akousmatikoi meant listeners while
mathematikoi meant learners.
He opened his school to male and female students alike. Those who
joined the inner circle of Pythagoras's society called themselves the
Mathematikoi. They lived at the school, owned no personal possessions
and were required to assume a vegetarian diet. Other students who lived
in neighboring areas were also permitted to attend Pythagoras's school.
Known as Akousmatikoi, these students were permitted to eat meat and own
personal belongings.
According to Iamblichus, the Pythagoreans
followed a structured life of religious teaching, common meals,
exercise, reading and philosophical study. Music featured as an
essential organizing factor of this life: the disciples would sing hymns
to Apollo together regularly; they used the lyre to cure illness of the
soul or body; poetry recitations occurred before and after sleep to aid
the memory.
This kind of rendition does not due justice to the five years of silent listening required before becoming a true inner member of the Pythagorean cult.... or school.
Two different schools were existing at the same time and were like
opponents. The akousmatikoi stated that they were the only genuine
movement that followed Pythagoras and was sure that the mathematikoi
were actually following Hippasus. However, the mathematikoi accepted the
fact that their opponents were Pythagorean but proclaimed that they
themselves represented his statements more accurately.
As the time flew, the group of learners started, and most of them became
the participants of Platonic school. Speaking of the mathematikoi
group, they were wandering as ascetics and eventually joined the
Cynicism movement.
by R McKirahan · 2014 — The distinction between mathematikoi and akousmatikoi was a later fabrication.
So we can see how the "victors write history" and it all got turned around as a scam!! Why are people claiming the mathematikoi are the true Pythagoreans? Because they're mind controlled by Platonic philosophy!!
So Galileo is quoted as taking the side of the mathematikoi as a kind of democratization of number.
Salviati,
"does not see anything particularly wonderful about the number three."
That's because Galileo did not understand the Noncommutative secret of music theory that only Alain Connes rediscovered! (and myself as far as the connection to the Pythagorean meditation).
2021 - he makes the snafu gaff of putting the wrong physics before the music...
That book cites Richard Leppert - a University of MInnesota professor who wrote a letter for me on my monograph, "The Fundamental Force" in 1996 - and that letter helped me get into graduate school.
4) 2017.
Yes I just posted on my blog how a new book on Galileo is claiming the "Mathematikoi" were the real Pythagoreans - which is a lie. Galileo got funded by the Medicis because Galileo claimed he could cut down on labor costs! haha. Modern science is a scam as Professor David F. Noble's book "Religion of Technology" exposed. So now we have the "stargate conspiracy" as the Actual Matrix Plan as I exposed with my 2001 posting. Yes we are all "hard-wired" into the Platonic symmetry cult of "western civilization" by the Pythagorean Theorem taught to 14 year olds. haha. So the left-right paradigm is just symptomatic of a deeper insanity.
I stopped watching the "History" channel a long time ago - yes it's just CIA propaganda. I've never hread of Grayham Forscutt - but people will eat up the lies to be sure - spoonfeeding the sugar to help the medicine go down. I had someone following me for years - and kept pushing the Dan Winter lies. I finally said - look can I finally block you since you refuse to even acknowledge my main argument? haha. The person was obsessed with me - so it was symptomatic of this deep psychological blockage.
A person could even be "fully enlightened" yet not understand the philosophy of the Western mind control through symmetry mathematics. But I totally agree with you that "books" are not going to change anyone's mind. This is what I call the "surplus value of consciousness." Zizek calls it "Jouissance" from - Barthes? Anyway even Zizek is stuck on the Platonic Matrix as the "chora" truth of reality. Hilarious! haha.
"Khôra (also chora; Ancient Greek: χώρα) was the territory of the Ancient Greek polis outside the city proper. The term has been used in philosophy by Plato to designate a receptacle (as a "third kind" [triton genos]; Timaeus 48e4), a space, a material substratum, or an interval. In Plato's account, khôra is described as a formless interval, alike to a non-being, in between which the "Forms" were received from the intelligible realm (where they were originally held) and were "copied", shaping into the transitory forms of the sensible realm; it "gives space" and has maternal overtones (a womb, matrix):
So likewise it is right that the substance which is to be fitted to receive frequently over its whole extent the copies of all things intelligible and eternal should itself, of its own nature, be void of all the forms. Wherefore, let us not speak of her that is the Mother and Receptacle of this generated world, which is perceptible by sight and all the senses, by the name of earth or air or fire or water, or any aggregates or constituents thereof: rather, if we describe her as a Kind invisible and unshaped, all-receptive, and in some most perplexing and most baffling partaking of the intelligible, we shall describe her truly.
— Plato, Timaeus, 51a[1]"
Oops - no one notices that Timaeus was using the WRONG music theory from Philolaus based on the lie of symmetric irrational magnitude. Hilarious.
@unseenseer Did I tell you the story of how I was reading Mike Levine's book "The Big White Lie" on the back of the bus in St. Paul as we crossed into Minneapolis? The back of the bus was just me and African-American black male brothers who were staring at the book title with relish. Hilarious. They sat in the back of the bus as a kind of reverse statement like the "N-word" has been reclaimed.
@unseenseer yes someone posted a vid recently on the US Empire Imploding - I should find that. So I find Wade Davis saying the US Empire is imploding. And peace researcher Dr. Jan Oberg... and of course math ph.d. Liberal Studies PRofessor - and author - Morris Berman - made this claim over a decade ago... Lawrence Wilkerson Colonel is making the claim now... Is this the Collapse of the Great American Empire? Here we go: five days ago.
