📜GPS 3 - The Tetractys of Vamos Mystery Cache

Part 3. Pythagorean Tetractys

It might be a just a little flaw in translation, but what would it be, when a "S" becomes to a "V"....?

Pythagoras (of Vamos?)

The Pythagorean Tetraktys is represented by numbers, 1, 2, 3, 4=10, and by points or “Yods” in the form of a triangle.

In the Pythagorean system Spirit is everywhere represented as the Universal. “All multitude must necessarily issue from One,” and that one is Spirit. All emanations and subdivisions must therefore be related to the One by absolute geometry (perfect forms) and absolute mathematics (perfect numbers and movements).

A prayer of the Pythagoreans shows the importance of the Tetractys (sometimes called the "Mystic Tetrad"), as the prayer was addressed to it.

"Bless us, divine number, thou who generated gods and men! O holy, holy Tetractys, thou that containest the root and source of the eternally flowing creation! For the divine number begins with the profound, pure unity until it comes to the holy four; then it begets the mother of all, the all-comprising, all-bounding, the first-born, the never-swerving, the never-tiring holy ten, the keyholder of all."

As a portion of the secret religion, initiates were required to swear a secret oath by the Tetractys. They then served as novices for a period of silence lasting three years.

The Pythagorean oath also mentioned the Tetractys:

203-113-32312 : 30-14-527
