Yoga of Synthesis through Trinities

 Today we will take a brief look at how Cosmos itself does the yoga of synthesis from microcosm (atom) to macrocosm (man, planetary logos, solar logos ...) as explained by Blavatsky and Djwal Khul/Bailey.


I have prepared a Master Table of Triangles (this is a draft version) of Synthesis from The Secret Doctrine and Treatises of DK/AAB. The First, Second, Third aspects are themselves triads synthesized. This means every row of the table can be understood as three levels of synthesis. As an example highest apex is the synthesising point for the Logos from whence He abstracts the essence in manifestation; the other (next lower vextex) for the Monad, from whence the Monad abstracts and garners the fruits of objectivity which is still through the synthesis of Soul of the three-fold lower (at the third lower point).

 

The third aspect is often a Quaternary since many times the last aspect is split into two (such as etheric and physical separately) or else the combination of 3 leads to 4 ways (in context of rays) of doing them mathematically. 


I also give a general diagram which gives an asbtract picture of structures from microscosm (atom) to macrocosm (Man, Planetary Logos, Solar Logos ...) These unlock the mystery to numbers 3 (triads), 4 (quaternaries and crosses), 3+4 = 7 (septenaries), 3+3+1 = 7, 3+1+3 = 7 (inner triads on overall septenaries), 3+3+4 = 10 (tetractys), 3 X 4 = 12 (the triads of crosses and quaternaries) underlying the “Science of Triangles” in Secret Doctrine (HPB), 24 Books (DK/AAB) and a part of esoteric ageless wisdom lost in exoteric religions. 


We will later try and understand in detail how synthesis usually occurs on the (inner or upper) plane of abstract cause governing (outer or lower) concrete effect.


Meanwhile let's enjoy few words from the pen of a "Synthesiser Yogi" expressing profound harmony in a poetic masterpiece: (Can you feel synthesis through phrases such as "In a deep oneness of all things that are,", "The thousandfold expression of the One.", "These now became new portions of himself,", "Its fathomless feeling of the All in one", "That equates the unequal All to the equal One" and much more !)   


In a profound existence beyond earth’s

Parent or kin to our ideas and dreams

Where Space is a vast experiment of the soul,

In an immaterial substance linked to ours

In a deep oneness of all things that are,

The universe of the Unknown arose.

A self-creation without end or pause

Revealed the grandeurs of the Infinite:

It flung into the hazards of its play

A million moods, a myriad energies,

The world-shapes that are fancies of its Truth

And the formulas of the freedom of its Force.

...

...

Here all experience was a single plan,

The thousandfold expression of the One.

All came at once into his single view;

Nothing escaped his vast intuitive sight,

Nothing drew near he could not feel as kin:

He was one spirit with that immensity.

Images in a supernal consciousness

Embodying the Unborn who never dies,

The structured visions of the cosmic Self

Alive with the touch of being’s eternity

Looked at him like form-bound spiritual thoughts

Figuring the movements of the Ineffable.

...

...

All thought can know or widest sight perceive

And all that thought and sight can never know,

All things occult and rare, remote and strange

Were near to heart’s contact, felt by spirit-sense.

Asking for entry at his nature’s gates

They crowded the widened spaces of his mind,

His self-discovery’s flaming witnesses,

Offering their marvel and their multitude.

These now became new portions of himself,

The figures of his spirit’s greater life,

The moving scenery of his large time-walk

Or the embroidered tissue of his sense:

These took the place of intimate human things

And moved as close companions of his thoughts,

Or were his soul’s natural environment.

Tireless the heart’s adventure of delight,

Endless the kingdoms of the Spirit’s bliss,

Unnumbered tones struck from one harmony’s strings;

Each to its wide-winged universal poise,

Its fathomless feeling of the All in one,

Brought notes of some perfection yet unseen,

Its single retreat into Truth’s secrecies,

Its happy sidelight on the Infinite.

...

...

The Idea self-luminous key to all ideas,

The integer of the Spirit’s perfect sum

That equates the unequal All to the equal One,

The single sign interpreting every sign,

The absolute index to the Absolute.

The Yoga of Synthesis Diary Leaves 4

 Album The Yoga of Synthesis  Dated 22 January 2025 The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali give us four stages of meditation and when applied on symbols we find: 1. First, as the form is pondered upon, the realisation begins to dawn that it is but a symbol of an inner reality. 2. Second, there is a recognition of the quality or nature of the form—its subjective energy, the quality of the force that seems to flow through it, the emotion that the symbol arouses. 3. Third, as we concentrate on considering the quality, we arrive next at the purpose, the motive, and the idea that the symbol has held concealed. 4. Fourth, in the final stage of identification, one becomes at one with the symbol; one shares its quality; one participates in its purpose, and through these stages one arrives at a unity with the creator of the form. When applied to the four symbols (of Helena Blavatsky, Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, Alice Bailey, and the category-theoretic model of Cause-Meaning/Quality-Effect), we...

A synthesis of Savitri and Theosophy - Painting No 15

 Today we continue to contemplate on the remaining lines from Page 5 of the Symbol Dawn of Savitri.  "Here too the vision and prophetic gleam Lit into miracles common meaningless shapes; Then the divine afflatus, spent, withdrew, Unwanted, fading from the mortal’s range. A sacred yearning lingered in its trace, The worship of a Presence and a Power Too perfect to be held by death-bound hearts, The prescience of a marvellous birth to come." 'Here' stands for our ordinary human world where the vision and prophetic brief light of Goddess lit the ordinary shapes miraculously into divine meaning for few moments. But then the divine creative impulse or inspiration was spent and feeling unwanted withdrew and faded from the range of mortal men. Once gone it left behind a sacred yearning in the hearts of those later realized what had happened. The presence and Power of Divine Goddess was too perfect to be worshipped to be held steady by death-bound hearts of ordinary mortals. ...

Seeds of synthesis

Some of the seeds of synthesis I have discovered (experiments are ongoing to give fair consideration and enlighten ourselves) so far between sciences, religions, philosophies are listed below for the lovers of truth and wisdom - Synthesis of mathematics - Category theory (Grothendieck, Saunders Maclane) Synthesis of religions - Theosophy (Helena Blavatsky) (A mathematical expression of the law of Karma or cause and effect is in my thesis) Synthesis of philosophies and Human Knowledge itself - A treatise on seven rays (24 Books of Djwal Khul and Alice Bailey) Synthesis of pyschology - Psychosynthesis (Roberto Assagioli), Humanistic astrology and soul-centred psychology (Dane Rudhyar, Alan Oken) Synthesis of ancient systems of Yoga - Synthesis of Yoga (Sri Aurobindo),Auroville (Experiment of synthesising city), Agni Yoga (Nicholas and Helena Roerich) Synthesis of agriculture - Permaculture (Masanobu Fukuoka) Synthesis of signal representation - Functorial Signal Representation Synthesi...
