		<description><![CDATA[I find the bet as the house which a parenthetical place for the occupants within the points of containment… i.e. contained within these walls is… or contained within the constructs of these symbols, words, phrases, concepts are… it guides us to the next pictograph as the beginning point.

The Resh is the head referring to the chief part of the body or the place where the brain (control center) is located.  It is the place where the decisions are made.  

Putting these two concepts together we have the concept of “thoughts” or “contained within the head”

The next letter is the Aleph which is the Pictograph of the Ox and a symbol of balance and strength. Alef is Air, it represents the Upper and Lower the physical tangible (earth) and physical non-tangible (heaven) as well as the connection between them. The Alef is one of three mother (fundamental) letters in the Hebrew language. In the Sepher Yetzirah is is referred to as a breath of air which reconciles water and fire. In the body it relates to the breast in the male (air/water/fire) and in the female (air/fire/water).

Alef is the first letter in the first shoresh of the wings covering the arch of the covenant and combines with bet to create the first concept or universal principle (father)

When combined with Bet, Resh it becomes the concept: Contained within the head or thought of divine balance (the balance and connection of the physical non-tangible “heaven” and the physical tangible “earth”)

The word Bara in Hebrew means a location or place, so incorporating the concept of location or place into the pictographs we have contained within the head or thoughts of divine balance of the physical non-tangible and the physical tangible was a location or space.   

It brings to mind the concept of an artist with an empty canvas getting ready to start a new painting.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is most interesting indeed... the gospel contained within the first word!  

I have read a book called &quot;God&#039;s promise to the Chinese&quot; which explores the ancient Chinese writing where you can find the whole gospel within such pictographs.

Good post, I really enjoy stuff like this :)
