The Pyramid of Ponder

The pyramid of ponder is a golden pyramid. A golden pyramid is constructed from 4 golden rectangles. The golden rectangle has sides with a ratio of 1 to Ø, where Ø is the golden ratio. The golden ratio is approximately equal to 1.618 and is found everywhere in nature and throughout the universe. It also has the unique property that it can be partitioned into a square and a golden rectangle. This new golden rectangle can be partitioned into a square and a golden rectangle and so on ad infinitum. An isosceles triangle can be formed from each half of the golden rectangle. Four golden rectangles of similar size can construct 4 isosceles triangles of similar size, each of which has a apothem equal to Ø times 1/2 the base. By connecting the sides of the 4 triangles together, a golden pyramid can be formed with a square base of length b and a height h of Ø1/2 times half the base b. Aatucagg refers to this pyramid as the pyramid of ponder. It is intended that the pyramid of ponder be used in conjunction with the sleeping stone for the creation of residual knowledge. This is because the golden rectangle is based on the golden ratio, and the construction of both the golden spiral and the golden pyramid are based on the golden rectangle. The sleeping stone uses the golden ratio to aid in the collection and dissemination of residual gravity by implementing the geometry of the golden spiral. The pyramid of ponder uses the golden ratio to gather and focus residual gravity from the sleeping stone by implementing the geometry of the golden pyramid.
