Glossary of Terms

god
Celestial being; unborn; springs directly from another celestial being or the Creator; designed perfectly for whatever task it is designed for; flawless, except in rare instances such as Lucifer.
reciprocal
The reciprocal of 2 is one divided by 2, or 1/2 = 0.5. The reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2, or 1 and 1/2. Although the value of 2/3 is different from the value of its reciprocal of 3/2, the proportional relation between the numerator and its denominator remains the same proportion.
hydroxyl ion -- OH
One oxygen atom (O) and one hydrogen atom (H) electrically bonded into an ion.
solute
When a substance dissolves in a solvent, such as water, it ionizes, turning it into a solute in solution. For example, water will break up one of its molecules of H2O into a negatively charged, hydrogen ion (-H) and a positively charged, hydroxyl ion (+OH). The aggregate of all of these ions will be paired off with the solute's ions making for a neutrally charged solvent.
solvent
A medium of dissolution in which substances upon entering into it may ionize and dissolve. Alcohol and water are two examples of a solvent.
subtrahend
A number or algebraic expression that is added to another number or algebraic expression, but added with the intention that whatever change in magnitude that might result from such an addition should instead result oppositely in the amount of the subtrahend. So, two minus three makes three the subtrahend. Negative six plus one makes negative six the subtrahend. Negative three minus a positive four makes both negative three and positive four the subtrahends, for they both are negative values immediately prior to their addition. A negative subtrahend, squared, is no longer a subtrahend, but a minuend, since two negatives multiplied against each other make a positive.
dharma
Dharma (masc. & neut.) - from dh¥ + man (suffix) [dharati lok±n, dhriyate puºy±tmabhiriti v±] (Hal±yudha-koœa, ed. Jayaœaªkara Joœ²) Also, "dh±raº±t dharma" (S±yaºa on ®gveda, 3.17.1)

In literary records the usage of the word dharma can be traced back to the Vedic times. The more prevalent form of the word, however, was dharman. Both these words are derived from a verbal root dh¥ which means to bear, support, sustain. According to an old Indian tradition, the sages of the past witnessed Dharma, and then they transmitted it to those who had not witnessed it, through mantras. This implies that the Dharma witnessed by the sages must have been something uncommon and exceptional, which had not fallen to the lot of the common man to witness. A question would naturally arise as to what the sages witnessed that was so invaluable. From a careful reflection on the Vedic passages, it appears that they witnessed the nature or characteristic property of the various objects of the universe—whether animate or inanimate. This formed their realisation of Dharma, which they transmitted to later generations, through Vedic mantras. --- S. N. Tandon

vipassana
To see things as they really are; a meditative practise as taught by the Buddha.
chakra
Literally from the Sanskrit: "wheel" of: light, tongues of flame, or flower petals; from the root verb "char"=to move; are intimately associated with kalas; are an aggregate of functions, or siddhi "powers", comprising the anthropomorphic, nervous system whose architecture varies among different planets within the universe.
anthropomorphic
Having human-like qualities.
Golden Beautiful
An aesthetic term describing an infinite subclass of polynomials, their roots, and the infinite number series that approximates these roots based on criteria elucidated with the help of the extended Fibonacci series, dubbed herein as the "Golden Number Series", which has been modeled from HE Huntley's reference to reflecting beams of light passing through sandwiched panes of glass, and the proportional relationships among certain pairings of diagonals within odd-sided polygons.
Iterate
To cyclically repeat a block of steps and self-loop back to the beginning, endlessly.
The Euclidean Algorithm
You've seen endless decimal fractions-----well, this similarly repetitive subtraction method finds the greatest common divisor among any pair of positive integers.
Extended
Although the quadratic Euclidean algorithm can be derived from any quadratic polynomial, higher degrees of this algorithm cannot be. This lends the objection: "What good can extension be?" Well, very good, but only for golden beautiful polynomials. All others are a wasted effort, although there is some utility for using extension for finding the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) among sets of numbers larger than two (the algorytm's original design). In these essays, the derivation of a linear (first-degree) Euclidean algorithm is inferred from the quadratic in order to lend backwards' continuity and is not to be taken too seriously. I am not a well-schooled mathematician (or even a mediocre one).
