After watching the Darren Aronowski film "Pi" the other day, it got me thinking. Although not exactly along the same lines of what Darren was trying to say, it got me wondering about the Jewish practise of Kaballa. Now, I really don't know anything about it, but I know that it's something to do with the Name of God. The Christian/Jewish God is called Jaweh or Jehova, depending on which book you read. This name has over the millennia has been shortened to just a bunch of consonants "YHWH" (also called the Tetragammation - which means 4 letter word). This abbreviation appears in the Old and New Testements way more times than the full name. Why was this name abbreviated? From what I gathered from my rather narrow catholic religious education is that in the times that these books were written (or referred to) only the Chief Rabbai was allowed to go into the holy of holies (a sacred place behind a screen) in the Temple in Jersusalem and whisper the holy name in full (On the Jewish festival of Yom Kippur)- so it was probably supposed to be a more reverant way of writing it. It was also said that if anybody but this high priest uttered the name, they would die due to it's ultimate power. Strange huh? After all, what's a word? Maybe a secret was being witheld? - Purely wild speculation I know and I don't claim to know anything about this area of theology, however - back to the film Pi.

The Mathematical number Pi or 3.14159.............. is a mysterious anomaly. It appears in ancient archaeology, and is the exact relationship between the diameter and area of a perfect circle (a shape with no start and no end!). Mathematicians have been as religious in trying to find the exact value of Pi as Kaballah Jews have been in trying to find the name of God, which has been supposedly lost over the aeons.... This poses a few questions:

1. Could this number and the name of God be one and the same thing?
2. Did the ancient Jewish High priests actually whisper a "number" in the Holy of Holies?
3. Was this knowledge of the "name/number" the reason why the Jews were the so called chosen people of God?
4. Did the loss of this name/number signify the fall of the Temple and the possible rejection of the Jews by God.... (I think, supposedly when the Romans Invaded)?
5. What was so powerfull about this name/number and why did the High Priest have to utter it regularly?

Just a thought, but could this number be a password or username to somehow access Life's "Behind the Scenes". A back end program in which life's "settings" be accessed.

It's not my intention to be offensive or to insite religious hatred/antisemitism. I also really don't know much about the above subjects so if anyone out there would like to educate me, please feel free to comment.
