Every mammal, not just humans, typically has seven cervical
vertebrae. Evolutionary development biologist Frietson Galis
discovered that having 6 instead of 7 cervical vertebrae is
associated with a severely deleterious effect on viability.
There is a coherent body plan, inscribed in nature itself, and
it is clearly based on numbers, harmonious effective and formal
relationships between all the parts and right integration to the
whole.
Why 7 and not 5 or 8 ? We do not know, but it is a fact of
nature. We can only take it into account or decide to ignore it.
But it is clear that any in-depth and global investigation about
the human constitution will lead to discovering a common pattern
directed by essential numbers and forms.
It is worth noting that humankind's spiritual heritage
defines the human being precisely in that way.
