Pythagoras: The Man, The Myth, The Mathematician
Pythagoras (c. 570–495 BCE) is one of history's most enigmatic figures. We know him for a² + b² = c², but his legacy is far stranger: a fusion of rigorous mathematics, religious mysticism, and political revolution. He didn't just discover a formula; he proposed that mathematics is the language of reality itself.
The Journey of Wisdom
Born on the island of Samos, Pythagoras didn't stay put. He traveled to Egypt and Babylon, absorbing geometry from priests and astronomy from scholars. He synthesized these traditions into a radical idea: Numbers are universal. They don't change based on culture or gods. This insight birthed the concept of universal truth accessible through reason—the foundation of science.
The Pythagorean School
In Croton (Southern Italy), he founded a community that was part university, part monastery.
Radical Inclusivity: He accepted women as students (like Theano and Damo), believing intellect transcended gender.
Communal Life: Members shared possessions, lived together, and followed strict dietary rules (famously avoiding beans—reasons vary from soul-transmigration to flatulence).
Secret Knowledge: An inner circle (mathematikoi) mastered advanced proofs, while outsiders (akousmatikoi) listened in silence.
The Mathematical Revolution
Proof over Observation: While Babylonians knew the theorem, Pythagoras provided the first logical proof. This shifted math from practical measurement to eternal certainty.
Music & Math: He discovered that musical harmony follows simple ratios (2:1 for octaves, 3:2 for fifths). This proved that beauty has a mathematical structure.
Irrational Numbers: His own followers discovered √2 cannot be expressed as a fraction. Legend says they drowned the discoverer (Hippasus) because it shattered their worldview that "all is number." Yet, the math survived.
Mysticism & The Soul
Pythagoras was also a mystic. He taught metempsychosis (reincarnation), believing souls cycle through animals and humans. This led to vegetarianism and a deep reverence for all life. He saw the Tetractys (a triangle of 10 dots) as a sacred symbol of cosmic order. To him, math wasn't cold calculation—it was theology.
The Fall & The Legacy
His political influence in Croton sparked a violent backlash around 510 BCE. The school was burned, members killed, and Pythagoras fled to Metapontum, dying in exile. But his ideas survived.
Plato absorbed Pythagorean math and mysticism.
Euclid codified the method of proof.
Modern Science rests on the Pythagorean assumption that the universe is rational and mathematical.
Why He Matters Today
Pythagoras reminds us that truth is discoverable. Whether in GPS navigation (using his theorem), cryptography (using number theory), or music production (using harmonic ratios), his vision persists. He showed that the universe isn't chaos—it's a symphony of numbers waiting to be understood.

While I don't believe in traditional reincarnation, I have, more than once, experienced reincarnation in this life. Perhaps you have as well?

Used to be #Substance and now it's #Spirit. Kitties do not live by tuna alone!!! Even #Vegetarian kitties! LOL I think Earth is evidence God may like to party, but some kept drinking!!! 😹😹😹 In that light, #Reincarnation is just a hangover. 😹😹😹 -

Some say our earthly lifetime is a kind of spiritual holiday.
In that case, I'm dreading going back to work.

🐙 Oh, joy! Another "genius" #reincarnation of #Git, because clearly what we all needed was yet another way to confuse ourselves with memory-safe #Rust and agents 🤖. Grit's noble mission: to rewrite complex software nobody asked for, but at least it passes the original tests - so innovative! 👏

Got a massage while on Sandbackarna beach in Sweden saying I'm going to reincarnate for a fifth time.
This came as a surprise as something must have happened,
something changed.

#MissKittyRaw How many reinventions of a #mind does it take to stabilize it? I'm not talking about #reincarnation. LOL. I'm talking about everyday. Holding a firm rudder with an exact destination has not been an overarching focus for a while until the last few years again. Like never before.

#Quiz
A nasty quiz.Where do reincarnation and the sound track for The Wizard of Oz associate most closely?
(No pun involved.)
Hint 1.
It's pretty fishy.If you have an answer please CW it.
No promises - your answer might be better than mine.

📜 L’étrange cas d’Edward Austrian, l’enfant qui a affirmé être mort dans les tranchées de la Première Guerre mondiale, soulève des questions fascinantes sur la réincarnation et la thanatologie.

Do our pets come back? Across cultures, people believe animals reincarnate. We examined the evidence, the stories, and what science says about continuity after death. Worth your time if you've ever wondered what happens to those we love.

If reincarnation were a thing, what (bird?) would you like to come back as?
I think it’d be cool to be a raven, preferably about 1,200-1,400 years ago so that I could inspire scops and skalds. -

👏 Wow, finally! The world has been begging for yet another Object Pascal #compiler because, you know, the planet just can't function without one in 2023. 🚀 Let's celebrate the #reincarnation of a language most people haven't used since the 90s. #CuttingEdgeInnovation 🙄

REINCARNATION
Does the Bible confirm it? Yes. Jesus Himself said that John the Baptist was the reincarnation of Elijah the prophet.
And Elijah returns - and has returned again - before Jesus returns. But who has even noticed?
