Acusmaticoi There were 3 types: What is it? What is the highest degree? What
(Acousmatics) should be done or not done?

They maintained their contents by oral and memory transmission,

Many did not understand their symbolic language. The acousmatic
degree was intended to convey simple truths that were useful for
life to people who were not trained to understand deep knowledge.

More internal to mathematicians, there was an internal circle where

there were duly tested disciples to have access to esoteric doctrines
that required greater purification and inner development.

Tetraktys and pentacle
School of music and medicine
Music comes to be the practical and
concrete application of the doctrine of
numbers, in terms of portions and
Harmonic interactions.

He established artistic education as

essential through certain melodies and
rhythms

From here the cures of human attitudes

and passions are generated and the
original harmonies of the powers of the
soul would be restored.

The most characteristic feature of his

musical theory and practice is found in
the hidden correspondences of the
cosmos that manifest themselves in
sound, powerful and harmonic.
To cure the disease

Illness is a disorder of some dimension

To cure it is necessary to know what a man is

and how he is composed

As previously said the cosmos

The opposite of the cosmos is chaos

Chaos is absolute unity and the cosmos is ordered

fragmenting unity.

The disease is falling into chaos in a brutal way that

generates death
Music of the spheres

The celestial bodies will emit an

equivalent vibration in their
movements through the ordered
space of the cosmos.
The thoughts of the souls, when
they are separated from the great
bodies and can meet the souls of the
great beings, reproduce such
proportions
