Cipher 16- What it is?

Cipher means zero. It is an arabic numeral that is used to describe the presence of nothing but actually speaking without the zero the world wouldn’t have been the same.

According to http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary the word Cipher means

`1 a: zero 1a b: one that has no weight, worth, or influence : nonentity”

It also means ” a method of transforming a text in order to conceal its meaning ”

Now why would anyone name a blog, yes a blog which is something that has infinite possibilities of sharing of knowledge, wisdom and experiences and much more, “CIPHER16″ ?

To me zero is much more than nothing , to everyone it is. it is perfect and complete . And it signifies infinity , contributing to infinite probabilities and possibilities. I give it a deeper philosophical meaning, something that we can hope to achieve ourselves. A belief that we are empty but the moment we belive in it we become full.

Now 16 is a number i associate with. 16 = 4 square and 4= 2 square and its symmetry. Just kidding 16th of May happens to be my birthday and till date i have associated this number with any new venture i have embarked upon .

So ” Cipher 16″………… [ the dots signify continuity].
