The fourth logical type, Brahmam, is the splendor of logic itself and the splendor of type itself. It is the splendor of mathematics. Therefore, it cannot be represented as a plane with the others. Brahmam is "the others." It has no second.

 

 

Point zero is the first emanation of Brahmam. In alchemical tradition it is metiere première, primal matter. In this paper it is "polytime." A mathematics of point zero is the doing or not doing of anything arising from enjoyment. It is the experience of unity. Seer, seen and sight are one.

 

 

The inner principle of duality is the second emanation of Brahmam. It emerges from point zero and is the inner principle of male and female, effort and cosmos, positive and negative. The mathematics of t he inner principle of duality is set theory, the dance of null set and universal set.

 

 

The elemental principles are the third emanation of Brahmam. They are five in number and emerge in order: ether from the inner principle of duality, air from ether, fire from air, water from fire and earth from water. The mathematics of the elemental principles is modern mathematics: algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus and its derivates. Astrology is also the mathematics of elemental principles.
