“A good example of the archetypal ideas which the archetypes produce are natural numbers or integers. With the aid of the integers the shaping and ordering of our experiences becomes exact. Another example is mathematical group theory. ...important applications of group theory are symmetries which can be found in most different connections both in nature and among the 'artifacts' produced by human beings. Group theory also has important applications in mathematics and mathematical physics. For example, the theory of elementary particles and their interactions can in essential respects be reduced to abstract symmetries.

“the architecture of our brains was born from the same trial and error, the same energy principles, the same pure mathematics that happen in flowers and jellyfish and Higgs particles.
Viewed in this way, our human aesthetic is necessarily the aesthetic of nature.
Viewed in this way, it is nonsensical to ask why we find nature beautiful.
Beauty and symmetry and minimum principles are not qualities we ascribe to the cosmos and then marvel at in their perfection.
They are simply what is, just like the particular arrangement of atoms that make up our minds.
We are not observers on the outside looking in. We are on the inside too.”
