[QUOTING]
The classical hierophants depicted this field of fire, sung about by Akhenaton, with the power of the sun, which they depicted as a Circle with a Dot in its center, the point, the nucleus-principle, a field of genesis manifesting itself.
This sphere does not stand by itself, but creates something. The point generates a line and from the line, all mathematical figures like the Circle, the Triangle and the Square originate. The first number - 1 - and all subsequent numbers up to nine originate from the nucleus. This sequence ends with zero and with the 1 of a new beginning (the number '10').
Cube Placed Within The Circle
Hence, the circle points to an enclosed space in which a process develops. We know that systematic changes occur in every space: fission, divisions and multiplications. This is why the ancient philosophers placed a cube within a circle to demonstrate there is Life. This refers to a content that can be re-vivified; a field of genesis that can be found within the power-field of the Fiery Beginning, and can be described as 'Life'.
In itself, this Life is not complete if there is no possibility of achieving regeneration and fulfillment, in addition to manifestation. The ancients depicted this process with a Triangle or a Pyramid.
From this classical description of the power-field, we receive a clear image of the symbol of the Circle, Triangle and Square , the symbol of the Spiritual School of the Golden Rosycross. With this symbol, the Spiritual School of the Golden Rosycross indicates that it confronts its pupils with three aspects and that these three aspects form a perfect unity within its power-field. In this way, the Circle, Triangle and Square represent the entire power-field, including its nucleus-principle (the Dot) from which the plan of manifestation develops. A Square of Construction is realized, and the fiery triangle of the New Field of Life arises from it.
The symbol of the power-field testifies to the Divine power, manifesting as a sevenfold cosmic field, descending into unholy dialectics. In this way, the depraved dialectical world is affected by the Light; the twelvefold zodiac is pierced and a new magnetic firmament, a new heaven and a new earth, take shape. The classical Rosicrucians said that this power-field is manifested every seven hundred years in order to lead Seekers into the Field of the Light.

May the foregoing shine additional light on the meaning embedded within the symbol of the Spiritual School.

I just would like to thank the blogger for the time and dedication. Many of us are wandering this life in search for the 'truth'. However for most the quest is like the following Buddhist parable. It is said that one time a man was hit by a poisonous arrow and had a few days to live unless he got an antidote. But the man was more preoccupied in knowing who had shot the arrow, where was the man, what was his name, why did he do this. He also wondered what the poison was, what kind of arrow was it, the kind of wood and where was it made. In the end the man died because he had wasted his time wondering with useless questions instead of looking for the antidote.
The antidote is here.....lets take it before it is too late. All love
Beautiful parable. An accurate depiction of the dead-ends that face those who fruitlessly seek on the horizontal plane.
Those who recognize the Truth when they see it, will reach the Kingdom.
