The L/L Meditation Pyramid

[zenmaster]

The thing that confuses me (for the small energising pyramid for under pillow) is this:

"The total of the four base sides is 1.16 times the height"

That creates a very - very - sharp/pointed pyramid. I wonder if there was an error in transmission.

I think Ra was ignoring Don's misunderstanding and giving the proportion as originally described. Take half a base side, multiply by 1.16 and that's the height.

But zenmaster... I am confused by your math.

I read it differently. By "perimeter of the base", I read measuring from base to apex (from center for height) then from that point to the perimeter. Why would one would need to measure a 4-equal-sided perimeter when dealing with such a proportion? Doesn't make sense.

In other words, in that type of pyramid, it seems that its dimensions can be expressed more simply in terms of the lengths of that right-angle?
