Beschreibung
"Sacred Geometry" reveals the interconnectedness of mathematics, religious beliefs, and architectural design through the lens of geometric forms.
It explores how concepts like the Golden Ratio and Platonic solids manifest in sacred spaces, acting as a symbolic language that conveys profound meaning.
By examining how ancient civilizations integrated these principles into their architecture, we gain insights into their cosmologies and spiritual practices.
The book uniquely bridges the gap between the material and spiritual realms, presenting evidence from architectural surveys, historical texts, and mathematical treatises.
It avoids esoteric speculation, focusing instead on observable evidence.
For instance, the book might discuss how specific tessellations were deliberately incorporated into religious architecture to evoke certain emotional responses.
The book is structured to progressively build the reader's understanding, beginning with foundational principles and historical development.
It then explores examples of sacred geometry in different cultures and religious traditions, before delving into the symbolic use of geometric forms in art and mythology.
Finally, it culminates by exploring the practical applications of sacred geometry in contemporary design and spiritual practices.
