The Divine Proportion and Life

"All life is biology.  All biology is physiology.  All physiology is chemistry.  All chemistry is physics.  All physics is math."
Dr. Stephen Marquardt


The design of life is based on a "Golden Ruler™"

It has long been known that the Golden Section, or Divine Proportion, appears in certain proportions of living organisms.  In 1997, I began to wonder how universal this was and how far it could be applied.  I took a golden section of a line not just once, but many times, to form what I like to call the "golden ruler," shown as follows:

First, take a line and divide it so that the proportion of (B) to (A) is the same as the proportion of (C) to (B):

Sectioning a line to form the Golden Section or Divine Proportion

Divide the line again and again in the same way:

Successive Golden Sections of a Line

Combine the segments to create a measuring stick or "Golden Ruler™:"

The "Golden Ruler" - a Fibonacci Measuring Stick (copyright EOT 1997)

This appears in the proportions of many life forms:

The human hand, face and body all exhibit the Divine Proportion

The human face is based on the Divine Proportion

The Divine Proportion is in spirals of a shell

The Divine Proportion is in body sections of an ant

The Divine Proportion in the body of a dolphin

The Golden Ruler™ can be expanded to a Golden Grid™

You can take the process another step further by creating a "Golden Grid," taking it from one dimension to two dimensions:

Golden Grid by The Evolution of Truth

This approach can be used to explain the physical proportions of many life forms, but the most beautiful application is found in humans:

The Golden Grid and the Human Face

It appears that this "golden ruler" is a common, if not universal, metric in the design of living organisms.
