Today I received and report to you a first systematization of the inherent mathematical dimensions of reality. This refers solely to coexisting mensurable spectra that have perpendicular relationships among themselves, not to any other use of "dimension". The method explains a natural order to each dimension that works similarly to the periodic table of the elements and extends indefinitely in theory even though only a small number are needed in practice. With the elements, a quantized atomic mass change causes all the variety in physical forms we observe; in the same way, dimensions are quantized and have different characters in any individual frame of reference, with an expanding set of groupings and categorizations as the dimensional index number increases. The dimensions inform and overlap with natural enumerations of essentials, with the symbols of numbers and letters, and with systems like the Egyptian Ogdoad, the Gnostic Aeons, and the Kabbalist Tree of Life, all of which have Edenic elements.

This enumeration should not be regarded as definitive or complete, merely as a stepping stone toward more discovery. In particular, I've had to change my previous understanding by promoting one dimension that I had previously as the 10th to recognize it as the 6th instead, and demoting others accordingly; so anything I've said in the past about the 6th through 10th should be renumbered to account for that. I add the traditional Hebrew, Greek, and English gematria even though they do not perfectly agree, because (as with the first three dimensions) some functions are slippable and loose while others are more tightly indicated. As typical in science, all phenomena (known and unknown, seen and unseen) occur in all dimensions even though our simplified models of fewer numbers of dimensions are substantially sufficient for many intents and purposes; so we already exist in all dimensions even as experience can be expressed in words using very few of them.

1. Alef, Alpha, A: Forward, the way you walk.

2. Beth, Beta, B: Upward, the way you climb.

3. Gimel, Gamma, C: Rightward, the way you sidle.

4. Daleth, Delta, D: Onward, the way you anticipate. This is the first temporal dimension, the prior ones being spatial, and it is distinguished from others because its accumulation of entropy causes it to be the direction in which the world is both remembered and anticipated. The mnemonic indicates we have correctly named the first FOUR.

5. Heh, Epsilon, E: Understanding, the way in which the brain folds its memory and the DNA folds its immune history. The name is cognate with both Yahweh, the self-existent as the source of consciousness, and with Heh, the lesser Egyptian analogue responsible for the first heaven.

6. Waw, Digamma, F: Knowledge, the way in which one moves right and wrong. Just as the archaic, now-lost Greek digamma recapitulates gamma, moral right recapitulates chiral right. I had this concept 10th instead of 6th, but moved it because its pairing with the 5th is essential to the pattern; it is also cognate with Yahweh. This refers to moral knowledge, and not epistemological knowledge, which is instead to be called understanding.

7. Zain, Zeta, G: Wisdom, the way in which one apprehends greater core reality.

8. Cheth, Eta, H: Counsel, the way in which one interrelates among sentiences.

9. Teth, Theta, I: Prudence, the way in which one negotiates nonsentient realities.

10. Yodh, Iota, J: Invention, the way in which imagination works. This is the second temporal dimension, perpendicular to the first, in which one explores alternate timelines with as much freedom as in spatial manifolds; it focuses on changeable concepts and not timeless realities (except as the concept contains the whole of the timeline). This is the last of the standard M-theory dimensions.

11. Kaf, Kappa, K: Strength, the additional space to allow value and mass to take form in the lower dimensions. This is also used in M-theory but only as a container without extension to keep various forms of the theory isomorphic.

12. Lamedh, Lambda, L: Intellect, a second additional space that is necessitated by the same system but that is not usually distinguished from the 11th. This is the reason that the numbers 10, 11, 12 are all considered isomorphic and the reason the kabbalistic tree can be pictured with 10, 11, or 12 nodes (corresponding to the number of standard vowels producible with the human mouth). The next 12 dimensions are analogues of the first 12 that partake of similar character but that have not had significant formal exploration before; they can be used to align future theory. For this reason the current English alphabet (like the earlier 23-letter English alphabet) doesn't continue to align with the earlier alphabets.

13. Mem, Mu, M: Forward-Related.

14. Nun, Nu, N: Upward-Related.

15. Samekh, Xi, O: Rightward-Related.

16. Ain, Omicron, P: Onward-Related. Temporal.

17. Peh, Pi, Q: Understanding-Related.

18. Zhadeh, San, R: Knowledge-Related.

19. Qof, Koppa, S: Wisdom-Related.

20. Resh, Rho, T: Counsel-Related.

21. Shin, Sigma, U: Prudence-Related.

22. Taw, Tau, V: Invention-Related. Temporal. When M-theory is expanded to 22 dimensions, these will all manifest together and stop there as a natural boundary. This corresponds to the 22 Hebrew consonants represented in kabbalah, which takes them from the 22 almond blossoms of the temple menorah.

23. Kaf-Sofith, Upsilon, W: Strength-Related. The first of two transitional dimensions allowing freedom of movement in the lower dimensions.

24. Mem-Sofith, Phi, X: Intellect-Related. The second transitional dimension at this level.

25. Nun-Sofith, Chi, Y: Depth, unknown entry into higher dimensions.

26. Peh-Sofith, Psi, Z: Heighth, unknown entry into higher dimensions.

27. Zhadeh-Sofith, Omega, &: Width, unknown entry into higher dimensions (presumably followed by temporal Length, &c.).
