The symbols superimposed over the powers of ten video are of the Platonic solids. Regarding symbolism, the mantra, "we are one" was sung 27 times. 27 is the only positive integer that is 3 times the sum of its digits. In a prime reciprocal magic square of the multiples of 1/7, the magic constant is 27. Its form as 27 = 3 x 3 x 3. 27 is the highest level of knowledge in rupaloke (Buddhism). Pythagoras and Plato say that the number 3 in the cubed (i.e. 27) represents the cosmos. In the Kabbalah there are 27 letters, corresponding to 27 channels of communication with God and 27 combinations of the names of God and - 13 overt and 14 covert. When I sang that song, the number occurred organically as the song was composed through feeling and intuition. In retrospect, given the significance of the number, the song takes on new meaning.
