How to Become a Mathematikoi – You can do it!
In this video we discuss what you can do to become a Mathematikoi.
Being a Mathematikoi is not restricted only to those who can solve math equations or recite long passages of philosophy – it is open to anyone who can demonstrate merit and achievement in any number of areas, which contribute to the development and improvement of our culture and our people: art, music, architecture, landscaping, sporting events, software – you name it!
Do you have any talents? How can you direct them to expressing the Form of the Good in the overall context of Illuminism?
Plus: we discuss a case example of how music in the form of “Church hymnals” could be used to unify our people and establish a psychological framework of conditioning to reinforce the principles of Illuminism, and we showcase a contribution from a member!
More example hymns to listen to for fun, referenced in the video. Remember, the idea here is re-creating and hijacking this frequency control system for the purpose of Becoming, Merit, Ontological Mathematics, Illuminism, the Form of the Good, etc.:

Isn’t this an odd subject for PSI?
I never heard of this word, but I found it’s Pythagorean based, and the metaphysical.
One of Pythagoras’ beliefs was that the soul reincarnates in a new body. So do I. This means the soul does not have an ‘owner’ as is currently believed, and that the mortal body is a vehicle for the use of the soul, as a learning tool.
If you believe such things, then astrology is also for you, but natal chart only.
On the subject of Pythagorean Illuminism, I have found reference to a book by the Pythagorean Illuminati and it claims to not only know the truth of the universe, but why humanity was created. Sorry, but that is no different to belief in ascension, self initiated kundalini, and all the other new age delusion.
“how music in the form of “Church hymnals” could be used to unify our people and establish a psychological framework of conditioning to reinforce the principles of Illuminism”
Sounds like brainwashing.
I watched the male choir which I found calming. Nice pipes!

Depends on how you look at it. Pursuit of harmony with Nature = “Form of the Good”, (very Aristotilian) vs. the chaos if ignorance. The study and inquiry into Nature is what we call science. This IS a publication with that in it’s name. Seems logical to me. Science cannot know everything., Nature does.

“a psychological framework of conditioning”
I imagine Klaus and the WEF know all about it. This is not pursuit of nature by nature’s methods. It is humanity doing what it knows best to meet an agenda, nothing more.

Hi Joe, Howdy, and PSI Readers and now Rocky,
,
I am writing mainly to you PSI Readers. I continually am amazed by human history. Howdy admitted (wrote): “I never heard of this word, but I found it’s Pythagorean based, and the metaphysical.” It seems he discovered there actually was a person by the name of Pythagoras who wrote and that there is a historical record of what he wrote. But it seems we forget that it is likely that Pythagoras never wrote in the language of English. Hence, somewhere along the line someone has translated what Pythagoras wrote.
So I did what MattH commonly does and found: “Pythagoras of Samos[a] (Ancient Greek: Πυθαγόρας ὁ Σάμιος, romanized: Pythagóras ho Sámios, lit. ’Pythagoras the Samian’, or simply Πυθαγόρας; Πυθαγόρης in Ionian Greek; c. 570 – c. 495 BC)[b] was an ancient Ionian Greek philosopher and the eponymous founder of Pythagoreanism. His political and religious teachings were well known in Magna Graecia and influenced the philosophies of Plato, Aristotle, and, through them, the West in general.” (Wikipedia)
And I believe what I just quoted is probably accurate general history. However, I notice that it seems that philosophers are the only historical “intelligent” people who count.
Now, I have read how Galileo Galilei began his book Dialogues Concerning Two New Science (1638) as translated to the English language by Henry Crew and Alfonso de Salvio (1914) with one long sentence.
“The constant activity which you Venetians display in your famous arsenal suggests to the studious mind a large field for investigation, especially that part of the work which involves mechanics; for in this department all types of instruments and machines are constantly being constructed by many artisans, among whom there must be some who, partly by inherited experience and partly by their own observations, have become highly expert and clever in explanation.”
So I accept that in the history of humans there probably have always been the thinkers (philosophers) and the doers (the mechanics).
Have a good day, Jerry

Baseless comment as usual. “he discovered”? Wrong again…. Pythagoras theorem was part of the school curriculum, which, as a supposed teacher, a genius like you should have known. I am therefore familiar with said name. Please seek help.
How many people are aware of the word Mathematikoi? Sounds like a smart fish!

Hi Howdy and PSI Readers,
Thank you for writing: “Baseless comment as usual. “he discovered”? Wrong again…. Pythagoras theorem was part of the school curriculum, which, as a supposed teacher, a genius like you should have known. I am therefore familiar with said name.”
For it provides context for what I was pondering about a historical character—Archimedes (289?-212 B.C.). But first we must deal with your comment and Pythagoras. His equation is only the tip of the iceberg. There was much more to know about the man Pythagoras and what he pondered: Hence he (Postma) discovered the man and drew this man and what he pondered to the attentions of PSI Readers. Some of whom, like me, might be interested in learning about the man Pythagoras and what else he pondered.
I was pondering about Archimedes because he was both a thinker and a doer. However, based upon what I have read, he did not seem to enjoy the practical work of inventing weapons for his King who supported him; instead he enjoyed learning new things about the theoretic Geometry of Euclid by drawing circles and right-lines. Howdy, I expect you also know about Euclidian Geometry, but do you know how to divide a circle into 7ths? I do because I invested considerable time before I DISCOVERED how this could be done by drawing circles and right-lines. If you would like a real challenge, divide a circle into 5ths by drawing circles and right-lines.
Have a good day, Jerry

Jerry, there are people on this planet that know far more than you or I, but they never put on the shoes that will allow them to shine in that way. Reason is, they realise their vocation lies elsewhere. Why don’t you ponder that one?
While your at it, address my other points that you neglected which are also important and not only raise the issue of the soul nobody likes to talk about, but also the negative idea the article presents about control over others as something beneficial? It is after all, why we are where we are today. It is still coercion no matter how it is put forward.

Hi Howdy. Koi Carp are prolific breeders. So they are good at multiplication and probably pretty smart too.
Bow hunters like to shoot them as they are introduced noxious in Noo Xeeland.
Cheers. Matt.

Hi Howdy,
You wrote: “Reason is, they realise their vocation lies elsewhere. Why don’t you ponder that one?” I believe I have: Archimedes.
“While your at it, address my other points that you neglected which are also important”. As you wrote: “their vocation lies elsewhere.” Ponder what you have written; I try to draw attention to what others and I have observed and a reader can disregard what I write. It is their freedom to do this. I make mistakes and I notice that some other people seem to not make mistakes. We are all different.
Have a good day, Jerry

Meaning, they are not seekers of fame or recognition. Archimedes was well known, so your answer is not relevant. Just in case you wonder. I did the bucket and cylinder at school too. Back when schools actually taught real lessons.
I know what it means Jerry, I don’t need to ponder, but every time I get onto my ‘liked’ subjects, everyone shuts up.
Yes, you and your mistakes. We all make them.
Ignoring what you write depends on the subject you write about.

I have some in my pond Matt. The Goldfish spawned every year at one time, but the (presumably) females died over the winters (I allways lost one goldfish when the pond was uncovered), even though protected from the elements. Most of the Goldfish in the pond were spawned there and raised from eggs in a tank. The koi have never tried, so wrong conditions, or all same sex I suppose.

Hi Howdy,
Why did Europeans begin to migrate to North American once it had been discovered by Europeans? One unquestionable answer is to seek religious freedom. And the article (https://principia-scientific.com/the-amish-in-one-county-fought-to-save-all-new-yorkers/#comments) is a story about the descendants of one these original groups who migrated to the USA for this reason.
For some reason I have been the only one who has commented about this article. And I call this to your and other PSI readers because I believe you and they (readers) should be concerned about the lost of this freedom. The article is about their efforts to continue to FIGHT for this FREEDOM.
And PSI was founded to have the freedom to discuss publicly SCIENTIFIC ISSUES.
Have a good day, Jerry

RE: “a Mathematikoi” ???
You probably mean Mathematikos? (i.e. singular)

Though I know what you are saying, religion is not freedom Jerry. In any case, I have all the freedom I like to believe what I like, with no strings attached. I don’t need to relocate.
The Amish diluted there own tradition by changing what they believed in, swapping and changing with other groups, and the attraction of materialistic living weaned them away by wanting cars and such.

Hi Howdy and PSI Readers,
My cousin just sent me image of notable people of the world and their locations.(https://tjukanovt.github.io/notable-people?utm_source=join1440&utm_medium=email&utm_placement=newsletter).
Not anybody related to ENGINEERING AND SCIENCE. But one was Leonaro da Vinci who wrote about SCIENTIFIC ideas and ENGINEERING inventions but never did anything to apply them. He, like you it seems, was not a DOER and only a THINKER (writer). I do not imply that THINKERS shown in the image are unimportant. They are important because DOERS take the ideas of the THINKERS and do something with them.
Finally, my eyes do not see the best, but it seems only one person has the largest and boldest type: Adolf Hitler. But one can go to the link and see what you judge.
Have a good day, Jerry

Hi Michael Clarke and PSI Readers,
I had ignored that Topi Tjukanov was the creator of the map about which I had commented. I address this to Michael because Topi is obviously a computer software GENUIS as Michael is. Topi is a young Finish geographer who works at Mapbox, who is “enthusiastic about geospatial data and finding innovative ways how to visualise it.” (https://tjukanov.org/aboutme)
Also I had ignored that I could click ‘Discovery & Science’ where I could see some names of historical scientists like Einstein, Ben Franklin, and again Leonardo da Vinci but no Galileo nor Alfred Nobel. Hence, I conclude there are not likely any Political Implications to Adolf Hitler as I was formerly assuming. It is just that it seems young Topi had not learned much about Galileo during his schooling. I do find it hard to explain the absence of Alfred Nobel.
Have a good day, Jerry
