The geometry of plato’s cosmos culture and cosmos 44 pythagorean philosopher philolaus.2 whether or not that is true, the historian neanthes also noted how plato was excommunicated from the pythagorean community for publishing their secrets too openly.3 pythagorean learning was famous in antiquity for being a closely. Plato’s use of the five solids to explain the universe was more or less discarded in the centuries that followed, and was only revived during the 16th century by the german astronomer johannes kepler. since then, the platonic solids have made their way into sacred geometry, and acquired additional symbolic value.

Abstract. the present paper aspires to explain fully both the supreme importance of geometry for plato, and also the nature of the serious ongoing criticism that plato (and the academy) directs against the geometers, an explanation that has eluded modern scholars of plato (since m. ficino in the fifteenth century to our present day). Plato (424 423 – 348 347 bc) was deeply influenced by pythagoras and was also inspired by the hermetic teachings; some claim he also studied with the egyptian masters. both pythagoras and plato were influential for early modern scholars of the scientific revolution . There are five (and only five) platonic solids (regular polyhedra). these are: the tetrahedron (4 faces), cube (6 faces), octahedron (8 faces), dodecahedron (12 faces) and icosahedron (20 faces). they get their name from the ancient greek philosopher and mathematician plato (c427 347bc) who wrote about them in his treatise, timaeus. L laws of the universe. as an ancient science, sacred geometry explores the energy patterns that create and unify all things and reveals the precise way that the energy of cr. ation organises itself. geometry and mathematical ratios, harmonics and proportion are also found in music, light and cosmology, suggesting that one or more geometric.

Sacred geometry seeks to unite and synthesize these two dynamic and complementary aspects of geometry into an integrated whole. robert lawlor addresses this fundamentally dualistic nature of geometry in his essential work: sacred geometry – philosophy and practice. (1982), in reference to a medieval representation of geometry as a woman. Plato, an initiate in the egyptian mysteries, said it was the instrument by which the ancients maintained high, principled standards of civilization and culture over thousands of years. in the dimensions of paradise, john michell describes the results of a lifetime’s research, demonstrating how the same numerical code underlies sacred.
