Unity: The Inverted Unit -T
The poster in eTorus No. 57, excerpted below, UNITY: The Inverted Unit-T, presents examples of how abstraction (the reduction of the diverse Many, to One single principle) combined with geometric metaphor can help us to see relationships across a very broad spectrum of spiritual and physical principles.
The inverted unit-T is an expression of Psalm 84:12, which tells us that “Hashem-Elokim is a sun and a shield.” (The sun is at the top of the vertical line, an the shield is the horizontal line.) As seen in An Overview: The Two Golden Rules (below) it serves as a graphic representation of the golden rules. And in general, it represents the unity of complements. |

Reading left to right, and down the excerpt above:
On the first row, The Tree of Abraham is seen as the seed of Judaism growing the tree of Christianity, on which grows the fruit of Islam. This is an organic whole and the manifesting principle, wherein a seed-idea grows a tree-of-effort-and-caring that leads to its fruition when we drop our ego.

The e-TORUS Newsletter is ordinarily
published 4-6 times per year. Typically it consists of timely
announcements, updates on current projects, book reviews, pointers to
articles pertinent to Meru research that are published elsewhere on the
Internet, and/or an informal essay (or sometimes a pointer to a longer
piece) by Stan Tenen, usually written specially for the newsletter. The
list below includes content highlights for each issue, and includes
links to complete essays referred to (but not fully included in) in the
eTORUS.
Starting in 2007, eTORUS Newsletters have
been produced in illustrated PDF format. The archive below includes all
