The Sacred Name and the meaning of the Sacred Name has been sought by many. This Sacred Name of the Creator came out of Egypt, so we must go there to try to study not only what the pronunciation of The Sacred Name was, but more importantly What is The Meaning of The Name! These four Tetragrammaton letters have retained their names for more than 3,000 years. The link to the second part of this research on the origin of the Universe is with the Tetragrammaton letter “Heh”. In Egyptian mythology, Heh was the god of INFINITY, ETERNITY, ENDLESSNESS who was WITHOUT FORM. This should sound very familiar as a characteristic of the Creator God of the Universe in all religions! Along with the numbers π and e, the number 1.6180339… seen as the Greek letter Phi (ϕ), is a key to understanding the Creator of the Universe because we see this number in all plant life and in Galaxy formation. In the earlier papers, we explored the origin of the Tetragrammaton as far back as Egypt to try and understand the Name of the Creator of the Universe and what were the Divine Qualifying Characteristics of the Creator. BUT WHY STOP THERE??? Let us go back to how it all came about, how it all began, and find out what happened “IN THE BEGINNING” - at the moment of, or even before THE BIG BANG, The Creation of the Universe Itself!!! In this chapter we will review how many of the various religions viewed the beginning of Creation with a surprising revelation that they were all speaking the same language as modern scientists explain the Big Bang but in their own human and cultural terms.

Encompassing a Fractal World presents a groundbreaking, innovative paradigm that opens up new perspectives for understanding and analyzing Hindu life and culture. In particular, it has crucial implications for the understanding of Hindu cosmology, ritual, architecture, kinship, social relationships, and agriculture as well as modern anthropological theories of ritual, action, and agency. Gil Daryn’s main thrust is not that the fractal concept may neatly bring together much of what has been written about Hindu culture but, instead, it argues the case for an additional and gendered fractal dimension.Encompassing a Fractal World is exceptional in scope, drawing from an extensive set of comparative materials ranging from Vedic cosmogonies and sacrifice through Puranic mythology to contemporary ethnographic accounts from Nepal and India. This book is an interdisciplinary comparative work that attempts to “connect the dots,” moving beyond isolated village-based studies in order to bridge the gulf between anthropology and Hindu studies.

'3 worlds' of Hindu cosmology
Introduction; The entire landscape of temples in the area once ruled by the Khemer kings in what is now called Cambodia were inspired by the Hindu concept of Mount Meru and fittingly so since they were to be the representatives of the greatness of the Emperors during their lifetime and beyond(not to mention their crypt). What could be more majestic than the great HINDU MYTHOLOGICAL MOUNTAIN. Were the architects ordered to capture that mythical design? Likely so.

Although God is a neutral power, without name and form, he takes a form for himself relative to the human world. The point of creation is from this Cosmic Mind. The name of that Cosmic Person is Manu alias Purusha, Adam, and so on. It is said in the scriptures that Manu, the Cosmic Person split himself into two, as a man and a woman at the beginning of creation, and the human race originated from their union.
