Abstract

[The cyclic/spiral structure of human thought patterns is a universal characteristic of many cultures throughout human history. The idea of eternal return is the notion that events in the universe and in particular the events experienced by humankind repeat themselves so that they occur and re-occur for ever and ever. This notion dates back to ancient Indian and ancient Egyptian philosophy. The ancient Egyptians also believed in the notion of the eternal recurrence with their notion of neheh, roughly translated as endless recurrence. It was also an idea at the core of the beliefs of the Pythagoreans and the Stoics.]
