 .:SAKSIVC: Vedic Literature: Deeper Meaning: Symbolism of Worlds:.
Beyond these worlds and their Gods, effulgent in the supreme parārdha, upper half, is Sūrya, Sun - celebrated in the vedās as the One God of all the Gods and of all the worlds; to attain him is all tapas austerity undertaken, all sacrifice offered.
And this outer triple world, it must be noted, is symbolic of its corresponding inner triple in the subtle bodies of the human beings.
Thus the three worlds, denoted by the triple vyāhŗti of bhūĥ, bhuvaĥ and suvaĥ, are the manifestations of the principles of matter, life and mind in the macrocosm and the microcosm.

 The Eleven Worlds
Three silver branches project from the pentagon, branches of trees growing outside the universe; one is in each of the two upper corners, and one in the bottom lefthand corner.
Another world is fastened to the wall of the universe itself in the bottom righthand corner, and the last drifts as a wandering star through the middle of the pentagon.
This world is the youngest of the Eleven, and the people in it still remember their world-creator, enough to sing songs to her as if she were a goddess.

 Three Worlds
The past, present and future of the family of man are all included in the "Three Worlds." The world that was before the flood, the world that now is, and the world to come.
These three worlds are the basis of the Bible plan of salvation, and may therefore serve as a means of explaining the word in reference to the plan.
Those who died in the world before the flood did not thus reach the present world, which was then future, so neither can men reach the world to come by dying.

The Indic world stretches from Africa to India, and encompasses what historians call the "cradle of civilization." Known as the third world, these societies are largely destitute.
By the 2090s, the world was united in seeing that economic growth must not be had at the expense of environmental resources or cultural heritage.

 Popperian cosmology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The main argument for the existence of World 2 and World 3 is the direct or indirect causation on World 1.
The theory of interaction between World 1 and World 2 is an alternative theory to Cartesian dualism.
The interaction of World 1 and World 2 is also an alternative to epiphenomenalism, where World 2 objects and events are real but do not have any causal action on World 1.

World 2 produces world 3, while world 3 helps in the recall and the training/education/development/learning of world 2.
World 3 describes and predicts world 1, while world 1 is the inferred logic of world 3.
In addition, since world 2 is composed of people, we can use our senses to cut across boundaries and observe and test the exchanges and relationships of worlds 1 and 2.

 Amazon.ca: The Three Worlds of Paul of Tarsus: Books: Richard Wallace,Wynne Williams   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The world in which early Christianity developed consisted of a complex of distinct communities and cultural layers, which interacted with one another, sometimes co-operatively, and sometimes in confrontation.
The Three Worlds of Paul of Tarsus explores this world through the life of the apostle Paul, examining the three fundamental cultural layers: the native cultures; the common Hellenistic culture which had been spread in the east as a result of the conquests of Alexander; and the culture of the political overlord, Rome.
The major sections - The Geography of Paul's World, Travelling the World, The Native Cultures, Hellenisation in the Near East, Roman Rule in the Near East, The Life of the Polis, and The Individual's Self-Identification - are all good to excellent.

 SPACE.com -- Earth-Sized Planets Confirmed, But They're Dead Worlds
The planets are dead worlds, orbiting a dying star where there is no chance for anything interesting to happen, biologically.
In fact, it is common for these worlds to be ignored when researchers make lists of known planets.
One of the planets is 4.3 times as massive as Earth and another is three times as heavy, give or take five percent, according to Wolszczan and Caltech postdoctoral researcher Maciej Konacki, who presented their latest results here today at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society.

 Three Alternative Worlds, by Bob Avakian
As the world exists today and as people seek to change it, and particularly in terms of the socialist transformation of society, as I see it there are basically three alternatives that are possible.
And you cannot have a new society and a new world with the same outlook that people are indoctrinated and inculcated with in this society.
The reality is that, for the great masses of people in capitalist (and certainly in feudal) society, they are barred from really being involved in any significant way in official politics and the politics that actually affect the affairs of state and the direction of society.

 WELCOME
We will seek the answers to how these three worlds are also WITHIN US, as human beings, and why we, of the "seemingly" middle urth, cross over to the other sides of the upper and lower worlds, and how entities from those worlds appear to cross over into ours, depending on our chosen reality.
The end result of the lower world is always fear and darkness and death, where spirit results in love and light and life.
this indicates the upper world, and the fact that he wasn't sure if it was in the body or out of the body also points to the spirit aspect of this occurrence.

 Waite's Three Worlds
Waite has three lists of interpretation of the Major Arcana according to these three Worlds, but omits the Fool in each case.
The card which bears no number passes through all the numbered cards and is changed in each, as the natural man passes through worlds of lesser experience, worlds devotion, worlds of successive attainment, and receives the everlasting wisdom as the gift of perseverance.
The three-fold meanings attributed to each of the cards are the key to the whole process, and any operation is not an inquiry into future chances or an attempt to unveil futurity, on however high a plane, but is the analogical and mystical explanation of the law which inheres in the symbols, however combined.

 Full text of THE THREE WORLDS, by E. T. Tennyson
In fact, during that "world" the whole earth was like a great glass greenhouse: for the Bible informs us that prior to the flood a great ring or canopy of water spread completely around the earth in outer space above the atmosphere, enveloping the whole earth like glass over a green-house.
The world they had left about one year earlier was now overflowed and buried, and the waters of the flood had lifted up the ark about three miles to the flat plateaus on top of the mountain ranges!
That first world with its fertile valleys and life-giving food — is gone, buried under three miles of the waters of the flood, and we are fortunate that we have left these plateaus on top of the mountain ranges, the only part of the earth "that is now"!

 Three Worlds Intro   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
"Three Worlds" is a romantic fantasy adventure series set in the present time plus about five years on an Earth that is home to mighty paraheroes and within a galaxy that houses vast star empires and republics.
Although the books have three heroes: Lina, Londo and Jae, the series primarily concerns the evolution of Carolina (Lina) O'Kelly Starhart and her realization that we can all rise to become the greatest being we possibly can be if we set our minds and hearts to the task.
I'd heard of Brad Pitt but never noticed him until I saw a preview for "The Devil's Own." That's Jae precisely, right down to the Irish accent (when he speaks English) except that he's missing the pointy elf ears and the cat-patterned hair.

 Living Between Three Worlds by Sujan Pandit - The Globalist > > Global Economy
My fate is not that of a corporate foot-soldier, which — as the television images and newspaper photographs would suggest — involves a life of labor in a little cell and in tandem with many other, equally industrious honey-bees, armed only with a workstation and telephone.
Sitting in a Third World country, the proposition could equally be phrased as: "Export workers — or import jobs?" Actually, whichever way you state it, the economist’s answer is the same and is very simple: It does not matter.
Equal real wages for equivalent work throughout the world is most heart-warming as long as it doesn’t affect my own lifestyle.

The Indians, decimated by wave of disease after wave of disease, were caught off-guard by the arrogance and greed of Europeans.
Europe was filled with citizens who decided that boldly dying on the ocean or in some far away colony was better than living life back home, while the prosperity and contentment of the Africans and Native Americans made them vulnerable to European exploitation.

Few artists in the history of the world have attained the mythic status of Michelangelo--painter of the heavenly Sistine Chapel and sculptor of the nearly divine David.
And it is his towering presence that makes it so difficult to imagine the artist as a man. Art historian James Beck helps unlock the mystery of Michelangelo by opening the doors of the three very different worlds to which he belonged.
Michelangelo himself carefully oversaw the contemporary biographies--selling 16th-century writers on the notion that he was divinely preordained to become a renowned artist.

The Three Worlds Cycle consists of The View from the Mirror Quartet, a second quartet presently being completed (The Well of Echoes), and, yet to be written, a trilogy (The Song of the Tears) followed by a single novel (The Fate of the Children).
It's a dark world where the entire society is regimented for just one thing: survival in the endless war against the winged lyrinx.
The future of the world rests in the hands of three flawed people: Tiaan, whose geomancy holds the key to the power that can save or destroy them; Nish, who has sworn to bring her to justice; and Irisis, whose great talents are hidden even from herself.

One of the most complicated films of its time, The 3 Worlds of Gulliver is both an enchanting fantasy and a captivating visual treat.
THE 3 WORLDS OF GULLIVER is part of Columbia Pictures' "Ray Harryhausen Signature Collection", and like all other titles, the first-rate documentary "The Ray Harryhausen Chronicles" and the featurette "This Is Dynamation" are both included.
Anyway, you don't want the widescreen version of "3 Worlds" anymore than you want a widescreen version of "Shane." It simply isn't the screen ratio in which these films were shot.
