Origin
of Numerology |
Pythagoras is famous for his theorem in Geometry
that the sum of the squares on two perpendicular sides of
a right angled triangle is equal to the square on the third
side called hypotenuse. The world knows him only as a Mathematician
while the other and more important side of his nature and
life is not generally known.

Pythagoras
and his students believed in the transmigration of souls.
He saw his ninety-nine thousand incarnations in a row. He
and his students although not abstaining from meat-eating
completely, were essentially vegetarian in their diets. While
initiating his students he used to give a secret formula which
was known to only two of them. |
Pythagoras
advocated that each planet had a peculiar sound of its own.
But the resultant sound from all planets in the Universe is
a peculiar ‘vibration’ which is an ‘unstruck
sound’. This sound was called a ‘harmonious cosmic
octave’ or the ‘music of the spheres’ which
is heard during successful states of meditation through inner
ears. This sound once generated in the body of a person leads
him or her to liberation. The same sound is referred to by
Christ in the Bible as the ‘Word’ or ‘Logos’
and by Hindu Scriptures as ‘Anahat Shabd’ or ‘Aum’.
Muslims called it ‘Kalma-I-Ilahi’. This sound
is the goal of meditation in all religions and it is the one
which is responsible for breaking the cycle of death and rebirth. |
According to him every sound has a peculiar
number and this discovery could lead to uncover the mysteries
of the Universe. He and his followers commonly used the symbols
which meant that one could choose either the right path of
Divine Wisdom or the left path of Worldly Wisdom. Some of
his invaluable teachings were captured by Plato before they
were destroyed in Crotona. Imablichus gathered his verses
and Thomas Taylor translated them from the Greek. The most
important of his saying is the following: -
|
‘Declining
from the public ways, walk in unfrequented paths’ –
meaning thereby the person desirous of knowledge and wisdom
should seek it in solitude.
Pythagoras believed that at the exact moment of an individual’s
birth the Universe has a peculiar ‘vibration’
which affects his character and destiny in life. He assigned
a particular number to each alphabet in the natural way and
gave its salient features alongside. The meanings attached
to the numbers have been modified through research by a series
of workers to-date, including my own studies in the last two
decades. For introduction we have the following: -

According to the
‘vibration’ at the time of birth a name comes to the
individual spontaneously, without any calculation, suggested by
a relative, priest or friend. This name coupled with the date of
birth contains in it the complete character and destiny of the individual.
Being born at a particular time is not merely by chance, but in
order to learn certain lessons and perform certain tasks. The significance
of numbers is much in accordance with the findings of the great
philosopher Henry Cornelius Agrippa of Netterheim in the sixteenth
century. Next in line is the popular numerologist and faith healer
of the eighteen century – Giuseppe Balsamo Cagliostro who
furthered the work of Agrippa and Pythagoras. |
The early twentieth
century saw two famous people on the scene - Aleister Crowley who
was famous for his sexual magic and Count Louis Hamon alias Cherio,
who was famous for palmistry. |
