Ever since I remember myself, I have been always fascinated with the Butterflies. Somehow intuitively I always looked at them as a clue in front of my eyes to understand the biggest mystery of nature. Butterfly transforms from most ugliest caterpillar to the most heavenly creature, through several stages of metamorphosis, but that is not what I intended to point out.
Among millions of combinations of forms, prints and colors there is newer noncorresponding combination of these variables on any of wings. All wings are the greatest masterpiece. Each is unique. Like conscious artist with perfect sense of color did that as pure artistic manifestation. Butterfly is an ancient symbol of redemption and regeneration - an interconnected world. Like many other Ancient Symbols of Magic, Astrology, Zodiac, and Alchemy it's geometry based on a common single axis Symmetry. Hexagram, Mandala, Monad, Triquetra, All Seeing Eye, Alchemy, Wand, Athame, Blessing Moon, Cross, Dream Catcher, Elven Star, Hathor, Horned God, Hecates Wheel, Horned Pentagram, Iron Cross, Masonic Compass, Paleolithic Goddess, Pentacle, Solar Cross, Triple Moon Goddess, Ankh, Symbols of Air, Earth, Fire and Water, Unicursal Hexagram, Wheel of the Year, Druid World Tree, Infinity - they all posess single axis Symmetry.
Observing wings of a Butterfly, I also realized that subconscious workings of our perceptual system evaluates single axis Symmetry of any pattern a lot different then it would have been just a single side of the same pattern. Single axis symmetry patterns suggests rhythm, repetition, mathematical continuity, and intelligent thought behind it. Visual Experience of a single axis Symmetry are Hypnotic since it alters our mental state. When we see a symmetrical shape our cognition alters, we subconsciously focus on symmetrical objects, initiating implicit (intersubjective) acceptance in perceiving them through higher sensory channels.
Most of Ancient Prayers, Chants and Mantras are repetitive continuation of same verbal vibration. Om Namah Shivay, Hare Krishna Mantra, Gayatri, Om Mani Padme Hum, Soham - just a few examples. The sound made by flowing water is a mantra. Within a human body sounds which repeat themselves constantly, such breathing and a heartbeat - is also a mantra. " Just by repeating the name, that which can not be understood Will be understood just by repeating the name that which can not be seen Will be seen." - Jnaneshwar
Rhythm brings phonetic significance to mantras, giving them power to do miraculous changes to meditator's mind. Similarly, experience of a symmetry balances and harmonizes it.
Symmetry is in space as Rhythm is in time.They are Universe's mechanisms that transform chaos into harmonious arrangement, initiate consonance (unity) between the whole and its parts, brings order and beauty to the infinite complexity of everything that exists. They control behavior of quantum particles and galaxies. They are bases for elementary logic, part of our mind and a mind of the universe. They are nodes of proto encryption of existence itself, initial principles of a protothoughts. They are the initiations of a living force.
In theory, our mind tends to be coherent with rhythmic patterns of any object that we focus through our visual, tactile, proprio, and audio perception. Our mentation alters the moment we experience any quality or state of cohering, especially a logical, orderly, and aesthetically consistent in relationship of commensurable parts. BinauralFX team constructed Binaural Audio-Visual Mantra Loops - meditation sessions. Through use of a single axis symmetry, dynamically synchronized with the repeatable rhythmical continuation of a visual patterns, viewer can experience visual information as we experience sound.
According to the ancient belief in the beginning there was sound, which is reverberated as "Om". "Sound of Om" is a base of existence. Modern knowledge suggests that vibration of zero point field as a virtual sound of absolute is the essence of reality - a clue that we can experience reality in many different ways. Binaural Audio-Visual mantra Loops will show the way to experience of altered realities become possible.
