Pythagoras
Pythagoras
Pythagoras, one of the greatest men in human history, was the Greek philosopher, scientist, and religious teacher. Sometimes he appeared as man of science, sometimes as a preacher of mystic doctrines. He developed a school of thought that accepted the passage of the soul (which never dies) into another body and established many influential mathematical and philosophical theories.
He founded the mystic Pythagorean cult devoted to the study of numbers, which the Pythagoreans saw as concrete, material objects.
(c. 575 B.C.E. - c. 495 B.C.E.)
