Show Notes

Hey everyone,

Thank you for tuning back in. After a brief pause, I'm excited to be continuing our series on Pythagorean Philosophy. Originally, I had planned this series to be four parts, but I have extended this now to five, meaning there is one additional episode coming after this one.

In this current episode (part 4), we are going to be delving further into the Pythagorean principles of the Triad and Pentad in order to explore how the thinking of modern "Systems Science" interfaces with these ancient ideas. As we will see,  Systems Science's triad of "supersystems, systems, and subsystems" interfaces nicely with the Pythagorean sect's doctrine of numerical philosophy. I hope you'll stay tuned to find out how it all fits together.
