Description

Pythagoras (ca 585 BC 495 BC), a a philosopher, mathematician and musical theoretician wrote nothing down during the course of his life, not even the Theorem attributed to him. And yet his knowledge and wisdom changed the world, and have survived through the ages to benefit us today. The essence of Pythagoras teachings is contained in TheGolden Verses, seventy-one verses constituting guidelines on how to live. Functioning as admonitions, they link the human with the divine element and determine the point at which both converge to reveal how we might ourselves attain this supreme virtue in our everyday lives.
