The Pythagoreans were some very strange mystics that understood the Principles of Non-Contradiction maintained remarkable symmetry throughout all dimensions.

Expressed in crude geometric shapes, I sometimes visualize a page from Carl Sagan's Cosmos. It's not an illuision. These shapes are the hidden substrate of our universe. If you take a closer look at our DNA, you may notice a remarkable symmetry of shapes...the five perfect solids of Pythagorus and Plato - tetrahedron (or pyramid), cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron?

Rafiki the Baboon from the Lion King probably said it best when he quietly whispered, "Look harder."
