Question: About the matrix. When we look for the 24 thrones, is it the same principle as you explained with the cylinder and holes — that there are twelve holes, but positioned according to the cardinal directions, yet in reality there are eight? And here, likewise, only eight thrones are formed inside from the intersections, but if you look at the cube from all sides, it becomes twenty-four. Am I thinking in the right direction?

This is indeed the way one should and can think in order to understand how fascinatingly everything is arranged — that one thing can be something else. And that a particular element on one side is perceived one way, but from another side that same element becomes something different. Whether or not it should be counted, and in which cases it is or isn’t counted — this is very important to know. This is crucial in understanding sacred geometry in general. But, as I said before and will repeat again now, you can use two different approaches. You see, the paradox here is that the same matrix can be deciphered in a different way and still be just as valid. But the cherubim will actually turn out to be something entirely different — imagine that — and the wheels too, something entirely different, while the essence remains the same. Can you imagine such a paradox? So yes, we end up with 8 cubes, but when we look at them from all sides, it seems like 24. And is that it? Well, you can count it that way. And it’s very important that this suggests a way of thinking — that such a way of thinking is possible. And on the other hand, you can also add all the intersections to those cubes, and then you’ll actually get not 8 but 24 cubes physically. So you see, this matrix is fascinating in that way. Everything we talk about can be physically present in it, or it can be shown to us only as an optical illusion. This is very intriguing. You see, when we talk about the three gates of the cube, the cube has only six sides. And if we count each side as a gate, while in the Holy Scripture it says there are three gates on each side of the world, then how many gates should there be? Twelve. But in our cube, we only have six sides in total. That means we’re missing six gates in order to have twelve. On the one hand, yes, we could expand the matrix further. But on the other hand, even within our current matrix we can find those three gates per side, that is, twelve gates — three on each of the four sides. Why? Because when we look at each corner of the cube, we see three gates. And so, from four corners, we can perceive three gates each, and we find twelve gates
