The Logocycle and Transfiguration of Jesus

Right Strophoid Plane Curve
aka Logocycle Curve

Icthus

That the logocycle curve is called just that probably stems from its utility in deriving logs (logarithms), since the word logos originates from the Greek verb 'to count.' And it probably is no mere coincidence that the early Christian symbol Icthys (the fish)  is the shape of the logocycle curve.


Early Biblical translations of the nature of Jesus reflected in their understanding of 'In the Beginning there was the Word (Logos), and the Word (Logos) was with God, and the Word (Logos) was God.'  An attempt to understand a difficult concept about dualism.

But I'm sticking to my Guns, Nobody around here is God. Quite simply no one, individual, created being can ever truly comprehend what God Is.

Surah 6 Al-an3am (Cattle, Concordances...)
لاَّ تُدْرِكُهُ الأَبْصَارُ وَهُوَ يُدْرِكُ الأَبْصَارَ وَهُوَ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ (6:103
6:103 Your sights cannot concieve (encompass, know, percieve) of Him and He Is Aware of (Encompasses)  Everyone's Sights and He Is Subtle (Kind/Gentle/Affable..), Mindful (All-Aware, Well-Informed, Knowledgeable)

We have to root for a better understanding of what exactly is meant by 'logos' to gain some clarity on this contentious subject. The essential meaning of logos as a noun is 'a ground', 'a plea', 'an account' or 'expectation', 'reason'; in verb form it means, 'to count, tell, or speak.' Aristotle used it to mean 'a reasoned discourse,' the root logi-  in 'logical' gives us 'conforming to laws of reason, or following as a reasonable consequence.'  

(Jesus Christ! How many more times Ewes Guys gonna let on that I'm dead without even a hello!

Surah 5 Al-Ma'ida (The Table)
مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ كَتَبْنَا عَلَى بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّهُ مَن قَتَلَ نَفْسًا بِغَيْرِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ فَسَادٍ فِي الأَرْضِ فَكَأَنَّمَا قَتَلَ النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا وَمَنْ أَحْيَاهَا فَكَأَنَّمَا أَحْيَا النَّاسَ جَمِيعًا وَلَقَدْ جَاء تْهُمْ رُسُلُنَا بِالبَيِّنَاتِ ثُمَّ إِنَّ كَثِيرًا مِّنْهُم بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي الأَرْضِ لَمُسْرِفُونَ (5:32 

5:32 Because of this We Revealed to (Ordained for) the Children of Israel that whoever kills a soul other than for having murdered a soul or for spreading  corruption on Earth--it shall be as though they killed all of mankind (all together); and if someone saves a life, it is as though they had saved all mankind. And indeed there came to them Our Apostles with all evidence of the Truth, yet despite all this most of them continue committing all manner of excesses on Earth.)

This last connotation for logos as in logic probably more than anything gives us the exact nature of Jesus. He applied Logic and Reasoned his way out of the Grave and back to Life! (Hint: Yes, He had Help).

In short form His reasoning went something like this.

1. 'I Know there is a God (He'd been talking to Jesus all His Life), and
2. I Know I love my Mom and would not want to be born to any other mother, and
3. I know that she probably wouldn't want to go through that birthing thing all over again anyway just to have Me, and
4. Being a highly evolved Human I know I will not be 'coming back' as a lower form of life, so
5. When I die I will not be coming back as anyOne else other than Myself.
6. But, like any Human I Know I Am Going to Die, which means the people I leave behind will not be seeing what they think they know is me anymore,
7. But I am Guaranteed that I AM which means
8. I'm 'not really' going anywhere,
9. ergo --->There is something We Humans Don't Know about what it means to be Dead.'

So, Jesus goes and tests the case and we get things like:

1. 'The Transfiguration of Jesus' (He tells his Disciples to keep it under their collection hat until He's through with testing his case, ie, after he comes back 'risen from the dead') and
2. We get the 'Crucifixion of Jesus' (not mentioned in the Bible anywhere as graphically in anyway like that Mel Gibson movie), and
3. We get the 'Resurrection of Jesus,' (the women saw Him first, but who are we to judge?) and
4. We get the 'Incognito Jesus' whose friends don't recognize Him on his way to Emmaus, until they get Him to join them for dinner and see something very familiar about this Character in the Way He Breaks His Bread!

That's the summary of the logic flow and if the Reason holds up, which we know it did since there were reports in the media at that time, then we should be able to reconstruct  Jesus's Logic Arithmetically and the math should hold up to scrutiny.

Sounds like Lunacy, but i have been called worse things by finer people and have the added benefit of living in Los Angeles where i blend right in with the rest of the lunatics.

Jesus seems to know a little more about functions, group theory and mapping functions to subsets than His contemporaries.

The Domain X (the Grey Oval) 'maps' to some elements in the Range or Codomain Y (the Blue Circle) under or through the function f (the Orange Subset in the Blue Circle).

The Orange subset f(X) in the larger Blue field (Range Y) is called the Image of X.

Note: Nothing is Really Happening to the x's in  X, they are always hanging out in the Gray Oval far removed from anything in the Blue or Orange Fields. But through some clever manipulation, like looking into a mirror, or in this case an operation f(x), some x's correspond to some y's.

Not every element in X is involved to produce the largest Blue field (Range or Codomain Y) and only those players in X that are participating produce an Image or map onto the Orange Oval, the subset of Y. This diagram is just one case and nothing prevents the player x's or other x's from making other subdomains in the Blue Field, so it is perfectly Reasonable to model a Multiverse with more than one Image, but here we keep it simple and just consider the one Orange one we've established.

So, when Jesus Says He Is with His 'Father', He Knows (Is Aware) All of His Parts are in the Gray Oval (all of the elements/essense/things that ARE Jesus, where Jesus Is).

Notes:

Invariance of domain is a theorem in topology about homeomorphic subsets of Euclidean space Rⁿ. It states:

If U is an open subset of Rⁿ and f : U → Rⁿ is an injective continuous map, then V = f(U) is open and f is a homeomorphism between U and V.

The theorem and its proof are due to L.E.J. Brouwer, published in 1912.^[1] The proof uses tools of algebraic topology, notably the Brouwer fixed point theorem.

The conclusion of this theorem can equivalently be formulated as: "f is an open map".Normally, to check that f is a homeomorphism, one would have to verify that both f and its inverse function f ^-1 are continuous; the theorem says that if the domain is an open subset of Rⁿ and the image is also in Rⁿ, then continuity of f ^-1 is automatic. ...This map is injective and continuous, the domain is an open subset of R, but the image is not open in R².  A more extreme example is g : (-1.1,1) → R² with g(t) = (t²-1, t³-t) because here g is injective and continuous but does not even yield a homeomorphism onto its image. 

The theorem is also not generally true in infinite dimensions. Consider for instance the Banach space l^∞ of all bounded real sequences. Define f : l^∞ → l^∞ as the shift f(x₁,x₂,...) = (0,x₁, x₂,...). Then f is injective and continuous, the domain is open in l^∞, but the image is not. 

ConsequencesAn important consequence of the domain invariance theorem is that Rⁿ cannot be homeomorphic to R^m if m ≠ n. Indeed, no non-empty open subset of Rⁿ can be homeomorphic to any open subset of R^m in this case. (Proof: If m < n, then we can view R^m as a subspace of Rⁿ, and the non-empty open subsets of R^m are not open when considered as subsets of Rⁿ. We apply the theorem in the space Rⁿ.)...

Notes: The Banach fixed-point theorem gives a general criterion guaranteeing that, if it is satisfied, the procedure of iterating a function yields a fixed point. 

By contrast, the Brouwer fixed-point theorem is a non-constructive result: it says that any continuous function from the closed unit ball in n-dimensional Euclidean space to itself must have a fixed point, but it doesn't describe how to find the fixed point. 

The collage theorem in fractal compression proves that, for many images, there exists a relatively small description of a function that, when recursively applied to any starting image, rapidly converges on the desired image. 

Mariam, (Mom), is f(X) in this case and onto Her baby Jesus is born. The Jesus we read about and everyone that came into contact with Him sees in the Orange Field (the parts (Image) of Him that going through f(X)=Mary mapped Him into).

While some may say that Jesus acted as the Bridge between Heaven and Earth, it probably is more accurate to say that Jesus was the Demonstrable Example of what it is to be Human, since He never claimed to be the Only One hanging out in the Gray Field, and since we know He was at least with what He called 'His Father' and there may be 'others'.

We have anecdotal evidence that 'others' had made the 'trip' or at the very least were aware of this 'mapping talent' Humans display:

"Who has learned Your Counsel, unless You have given wisdom and sent Your Holy Spirit from on high? And thus the paths of those on earth were set right, and people were taught what pleases you, and were saved by wisdom."—Wisdom of Solomon 9:17-18

For the purposes of what we're doing here, this is what Solomon is saying:

"Who (around here in the Orange Field) knows anything about What God Says or Does (Your Councel) in the Gray Field, unless God (Itself) maps (makes an Image in the Orange Field) of that information (You sent Your Holy Spirit) through some f(x) (in Jesus's case it was Mary, in Elija and Jonah's case at least, a UFO) onto the Blue Field (from on high)? And this way those in the Orange Field (Earth) get a clue (get their paths set right), and finally learn something useful (get taught what pleases You), and Wake Up to the fact that there is more than just the Orange Field they occupy (get saved by wisdom) and realize they are at least part of the more comprehensive Blue Field (see it break through sometimes---call me an alien, see a UFO) and if they Realize this much they will Know if they don't straighten up and fly right from some point forward the eventuality is that they will each get their come-up-ence when they have to get back to the Gray Field!"

Solomon's rhetorical question is to God of course, and since we know Jesus was not alone in the Gray Field, then Jesus is not God, but is in God's Presence when He is hanging around there. And God (comprises at least the entire Domain X) is what sends that Holy Spirit f(x) all over the place (The Universe, The CoDomain Y, The Blue Field) and sometimes if we pay attention we can catch glimses of it here on Earth (Orange Field, ie., a Prophet, A UFO, a good book, an idea, an Orange Ball flies around Corpus Cristi, TX, etc.)

In this Mathematical==Logical Framework, we can begin to understand what Jesus was trying to teach 2012 years ago. Having established that He was not the entire Gray Field (Zero Point Field) in this example, He was not God, but certainly a Man Ahead of His Time and we finally get a handle on what is meant by God Making Man In His Own Image, or As God Imagined him). 

The Transfiguration of Jesus is a pivotal moment in His Story because it was a Miracle that He did not perform but one that happened to Him. It is mentioned in Matthew 17:1-9, Mark 9:2-8, Luke 9:28-36 and  2 Peter 1:16-18.

Jesus and some of His Disciples go up an unidentified mountain where Jesus is Transfigured right before their very eyes 'His face shining as the Sun, and His garments became white as Light." In other words He becomes Radiant, and this occurs at an actual location on Earth where the temporal (Earth) meets the eternal (Heaven) (ie., the Blue Field breaks through to the Orange Field; no Y's can ever be Y's  in the Gray field, see the Tree at the End of the Road--they would in someway need to revert to correspondent x's to get back their. i.e., die!).

At this point both Elijah and Moses appear and Jesus speaks to them while in this Trasfigured state of 'glory.' The narrative goes on to say that a bright cloud appears, and a voice is heard to say:

"This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to Him." (Presumably the language spoken was Aramaic so 'Son' meant 'Of Me', not just a bond of kinship, but implies an allegiance (yes, like being in cahoots with each other)).

Seeing the Disciples quite shaken by the experience and prostrate themselves, Jesus comforts them and tells them not to be afraid. Once they look up the Cloud is gone and Elijah and Moses are no longer there.

The Transfiguration can be understood through the Prism of Key Concepts we have introduced here.

(In the Muslim framework, the Transfiguration of Jesus is considered one of many of God's Portents--'a sign from on high (above)';

Surah 6 Al-an3am (Cattle, Concordances...)وَقَالُواْ لَوْلاَ نُزِّلَ عَلَيْهِ آيَةٌ مِّن رَّبِّهِ قُلْ إِنَّ اللّهَ قَادِرٌ عَلَى أَن يُنَزِّلٍ آيَةً وَلَـكِنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ لاَ يَعْلَمُونَ (6:37

6:37 And they say, "Why has no miraculous Sign been bestowed onto Him (the Prophet Muhammad pbuh) from on high by His Lord?" Say, "Truly, God Has the Power to Send Any Sign from on high," yet most of of them are unaware (don't know this).  (UFO Disinformation Campaign, anyone?))

The fact that Jesus had to be at a particular location at a certain time reinforces that there are actual places here on Earth (Orange Field) that serve as Gateways to Heaven (The Sky, Blue Field) Jesus climbed up a nearby mountain, some people use the Stairs, Ladders or Elevators or Conduits (Tunnels) to get to them.

The fact that in this account Jesus met Moses and Elijah, means those who had Died before can be encountered at such locations, (ie., that other mortals have made the journey and appear to be none the worse for wear).

The fact that they can interact (speak) to Jesus when He was not yet fully translated (tayer?), i.e.., He was acting like a bridge between the Blue or Gray Fields, means some of us are not as crazy as we'd like to believe. In terms of the physics, it would appear at least sound waves work properly, and there is something a little different about how some Human forms interact or are affected by Light near where the Orange and Blue Fields mesh together in that it made Jesus Radiant. (Yes, Dear, You heard me, I Heard You and I can still hear You, and I have responded in every way imaginable, so can we please stop with the sound check, already? My family and friends are either comfortable with the idea that I am mad or insist that I am not any crazier than they are, but the general public tends to look askance at people who seem to be talking to themselves).

Now, the Bright White Cloud that appears just before Moses and Elijah are gone is some 'unfamiliar mode of transportation'. To Jesus and His Disciples standing on this unnamed mountain it looked like a 'Cloud' to others looking around in that general direction from some remote location, it probably looked like a 'UFO.' (Unidentified Frickin' Objection!)

The Voice is WhoEver and WhatEver took Ownership of the entire experience, at the very least I know it was Not Me and Jesus Knew it was Not Him and the Voice Said 'He is My beloved Son...' And since we stand firm on the Immaculate Conception, the Owner of the Voice did not actually sire Jesus, but Jesus is His Child much like a Parent can Call or Produce Child program functions. While this is a suitable analogy it is not to say that God is some computer/master program calling virtual subroutines, or that God is Steve Jobs.

A window into the motivation for why such things occur is given by:

Surah 11 The Prophet Hud
 وَهُوَ الَّذِي خَلَق السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ فِي سِتَّةِ أَيَّامٍ وَكَانَ عَرْشُهُ عَلَى الْمَاء
 لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلاً وَلَئِن قُلْتَ إِنَّكُم مَّبْعُوثُونَ مِن بَعْدِ الْمَوْتِ لَيَقُولَنَّ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ إِنْ هَـذَا إِلاَّ سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ  (11:7)

11:7 And He Created the Heavens and the Earth in 6 Days (Eons), and His Dominion (Throne) Rests Atop the Waters, such that He Can Discern (Mark Out, Test, Lable) which of you is best in conduct, while I tell you, 'Indeed you are all Resurrected after having been dead;" those who deny it (belie the message) say, 'Indeed, this (clearly) nothing but obvious trickery (proven magic)."

The Crusifixion of Jesus we understand to be a Time of Great Torture, since the Quran stands firm that He was not ever actually physically Crusified (impaled on the Cross), there have been some qualitative references as to what exactly Jesus's Time on the Cross may have actually meant. Again, the Muslim perspective is that 'time on the cross' is what amounts to a great struggle or putting forth a great deal of effort in God's service--what is call a jihad (جهد  connotes; tension, stress, pressure, strain, pain, overwork, exersion, overwok (I know, most girls just decide to have a baby right about now, that avenue is sealed shut for me given the steady course of teratogenic meds I've had to take over the course of the past 16 years),  See The World Turns, Screw That!)

This is actually in keeping with the Gnostics belief that Jesus, being not really human (just Orange), was able to change his appearance at will (traverse all three fields, The Domain-CoDomain-Subdomain, in other words He Ranges Widely), and accounts of the Transfiguration, Resurrection, and other Miracles cotribute to a body of apocryphyl writings and the Christian concept of
"soul sleep" until Resurrection. "

Several commentators have noted that Jesus describes the transfiguration using the Greek word orama (Matthew 17:9), according to Thayer more often used for a supernatural "vision" than for real physical events." This would be one possible explanation as to why the Quran is so adamant that Jesus was never Physically Crucified, or You can All Deal with His Mother Mary if God ever would allow such a thing to Really happen.

Once the Tansfiguration experience elapses, Jesus heads back down the mystery mountain along with His Disciples and He tells them not to discuss what they had just witnessed, to keep a lid on it until the 'Son of Man' has risen from the dead. A concept unfamiliar to His Disciples since there is mention in the Bible of their questioning among themselves what exactly Jesus meant by 'risen from the dead.'

Matthew 17:9
here it is in King James version:
⁹And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, "Tell the vision to no man until the Son of Man be risen again from the dead."

and here it is in Greek:
⁹και καταβαινοντων αυτων απο του ορους ενετειλατο αυτοις ο ιησους λεγων μηδενι ειπητε το οραμα εως ου ο υιος του ανθρωπου εκ νεκρων αναστη

Ανάσταση==Resurrection and not αναστη   as the last word in Matthew 17:9 αναστη appears, which seems to mean 'as/per' or 'inhibitors' (??where are my Greek friends when I need them?--why, sailing of course!)

And what's interpreted as 'say nothing' ειπατε==say  μηδέν==null, naught, nil, blob as spelled here in the highlighted text seems mean:

μηδενι =Zero

ειπητε  == no standard definition, meaningless as spelled 'eipite', unless it is parsed out to "if π*i*t*e" which makes arithmetic sense but has no solution if set to 0.

Verbatim, Matthew 17:9 in the Greek Coptic version says,

" And as they were descending the mountain (the scene of the transfiguration), Jesus stipulated (gave a proviso, condition under which to speak) that the Disciples should 'postpone' (hold off, allow an iterval of time to elapse 'talking about the 'vision') saying, "zero=π*e^(it)" (which has no  solution==False) the vision (what they saw, not clear if He meant the tranfiguration, or what they will see as a Crusifixion or both) until  'The Son of Man' (The Human 'Son'/ there in the Orange Field) 'inhibits death' (after 'The Son of Man' rises from the dead).

To inhibit or act as inhibitor is to impede/ obstruct/slow down/stall or hinder, and if Jesus was who I think He was, He was trying to say to some guys wearing coarse unbleached linen togs in terms they could understand, 'Until I send the signal to prevent something from occuring (impede death electronically)'.

Jesus' words on descent from the mountain of transfiguration; "You will say to this mountain (i.e. of transfiguration),‘Move from here to there,’ (i.e. 'there' being   the promised land) and it will move ('project', see affine/heap/group), and nothing will be impossible for you (probably because they would realize they are no longer bound to just the Orange Field, ie. they establish they are 'dead' and can now range widely)

By this snippet of information, we are given to understand that the concept of Resurrection is not familiar to the people of His time, even though it has been happening throughout the ages, Moses and Elijah had died centuries before, yet that they met with Jesus on the mountain means they, too, must have experienced a Resurrection.

Some Biblical commentators like Origen posit that the Transfiguration and the Resurrection must be somehow related based on passages such as this in the Bible.

"the glory of God is a live human being (ie. is aware they are in the Blue and the Gray when they are in the Orange) and a truly human life is the vision of God (ie., (read: "Projection from/of God") they can traverse these fields because they are aligned with God...as God images them throughout the Universe(s)).

This would explain why the Resurrected Jesus was not immediately recognized by His Disciples. He had left the Orange Field (died) and they encountered Him while He was traveling a Road that was an 'entangled path' ( حُبُك   hubuk--woven-interlaced-entangled-knitted--'wales') between wherever He went to be Re-Imaged (some other function He was meant to perform in some other subset of the vast Blue Codomain which happened to cross into His past Orange life. Either that or He was wearing a big floppy hat and they couldn't see His face 'til He took it off at the dinner table.

Jesus' words on descent from the mountain of transfiguration; "You will say to this mountain (i.e. the mountain where the transfiguration took place), ‘Move from here to there,’ (i.e. pointed to the promised land) and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you," (unlike the Queen in Alice in Wonderland, however, Jesus did not specify whether this should be done before, during or after breakfast). (The Movie Vision Quest, ring familiar to anybody?)
