Indeed.  The FoL is a repeating geometric pattern.  As such, it makes a regular grid of points.  The bigger you make it, the more points you have to play with.  So you can join the points together to make anything you want.  In this, it is no different than a sheet of graph paper as Renquist pointed out.  Or from any other repeating pattern.  All this proves is that the FoL is not special, because it doesn’t do anything in particular.  It’s as mystical as a checkerboard.

The FoL could only be said to be related to making any particular symbol if the FoL wasn’t a regularly repeating pattern.  If there were irregular points on it that stood out from the others, and if you could connect those points to form a G or whatever, then you would have a case for the FoL inspiring the G in the Mason symbol.  But you’ve just shown that this isn’t the case.

At its highest level the G(like all letters and numbers)is a symbol. If you overlay the complete flower with a sheet of tracing paper,you will be able to trace out any known alphabet.

I should have wrote trace instead of draw.

Whether it’s “trace” or “draw”, that doesn’t change the matter any.

You see, your geometric pattern is doing nothing but setting up a regular repeating series of points, which you’re connecting to form whatever shape you want.  Yes, it is true that you can make any letter in any alphabet by sticking together various points in the FoL.  But it’s not the FoL forming those shapes naturally, it’s you choosing what points are needed to force the letter into the pattern of points.

Consider this geometric pattern based off of my bathroom floor, for example.  It does the exact same thing that your FoL does, in that it sets up a regular and repeating pattern of points.  Notice how it has no curved lines, making it quite different from your FoL.  And yet, we can easily create a letter “G” from it.  And that’s not all.  Here we see that we can make the letter pi with no problem.  We can make any letter we want to, just by connecting the points that we want.  Look at this example, where we not only have the ancient sacred symbol known as the “Smy Li Fase”, but also the numbers one through ten and the word “falafel” in Arabic (hmmm, perhaps I’ll call my pattern the Complete Flower of Falafel?).

All it takes is to connect the points that we need to make the symbol.  There’s nothing special about those points in particular that set them apart from all the other points on the pattern.  It’s not as though I could have only formed that “G” with those exact points and no other.  I’m just randomly choosing a starting point and forcing the letter onto whatever points I want.  The pattern doesn’t form the letter; I form the letter on the pattern.  And it’s the same with the FoL.

It doesn’t even have to be a regular repeating pattern.  That just makes it easier.  Consider Escher’s “Ascending and Descending”.  That’s not an image of just a completely symmetrical repeating pattern the way that your Flower of Life or my Flower of Falafel are.  And yet, I can connect points on it to form a “G”.  I could probably make all sorts of other letters as well.

Your Flower of Life isn’t special in that it can be used to draw or trace symbols.

On the complete flower,you do not need to connect points to draw the alphabets. All you`ve got to do is pick them out,you do not need to force anything.

But Acci didn’t need to ‘force anything’ - he just picked out the points that give the desired effect.
I really think that you’re just seeing what you want to see.

Congratulations, you have discovered ‘graph paper’.

It doesn’t even have to be a pattern, any suitably large set of randomly distributed points can be connected to form just about any shape you want. Hence constellations.

Well, congratulations. I didn’t think that anything could make me believe any less in what you say, but that website did it.
As far as I’m concerned, a website consisting of NWO conspiracy theories and similar discussion does not provide worthwhile backup.

Not to mention, that on my initial scan of the page linked, it’s the exact same thing that andymonk has already posted and provided links to before.  There is nothing new there.

Granted I haven’t looked at a lot of this in-depth, but that’s the initial impression I got from going over it quickly and it doesn’t compell me to learn anything more about it.  Just like anything else andymonk has posted here.

Looking at the very opening paragraph on that page:

The “Flower of Life” can be found in all major religions of the world.
It contains the patterns of creation as they emerged from the “Great Void”. Everything is made from the Creator’s thought.
After the creation of the Seed of Life the same vortex’s motion was continued, creating the next structure known as the Egg of Life.

Of course, none of these major religions of the world say anything even remotely like that.

This structure forms the basis for music, as the distances between the spheres is identical to the distances between the tones and the half tones in music.

“Spheres”?  On a two-dimensional drawing?

And the distance between anything in that “Egg of Life” is not identical to the intervals between tones and half tones.  The Egg of Life has irregular spacing.

Besides, not all music is arranged the same way.

It is also identical to the cellular structure of the third embryonic division (The first cell divides into two cells, then to four cells then to eight).

No, it doesn’t.  The Egg of Life is made out of seven circles, all displayed flat.  Since when has seven two-dimensional objects been identical to eight three-dimensional objects?

Thus this same structure as it is further developed, creates the human body and all of the energy systems including the ones used to create the Merkaba.

Nope.  My body doesn’t look like a bunch of circles all linked together.  If yours does, you might want to see a doctor about it.

If we continue creating more and more spheres we will end up with the structure called the Flower of Life.

Again, “spheres”?
