Chapter 94Numbers and Letters · Numbers

* The number 7 is the number of realisation — when there are four 7’s it indicates perfect realisation.

* 7 is the figure of realisation. 3 x 3 means the descent from above and the answer from below.

* There is no unlucky number. Numbers all have their powers and why should 13 not have its chance?
