The 144,000 (Rev. 7:4; 14:1, 3) are the multiples of 12 x 12 x 10 x 10 x 10, a symbolic number that signifies the total number (tens) of the people of God (twelves). The 12,000 stadia (12 x 10 x 10 x 10) of the walls of the New Jerusalem in Rev. 21:16 represent an immense city that can house the total number (tens) of God's people (twelves).
Breaking a mirror is said to bring seven years of bad luck [1]; A bird or flock of birds going from left to right () [citation needed]Certain numbers: The number 4.Fear of the number 4 is known as tetraphobia; in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages, the number sounds like the word for "death".
Number of ways to write an even number n as the sum of two primes (sequence A002375 in the OEIS) A very crude version of the heuristic probabilistic argument (for the strong form of the Goldbach conjecture) is as follows. The prime number theorem asserts that an integer m selected at random has roughly a 1 / ln m chance of being prime.
The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to spirituality: . Spirituality may refer to an ultimate or an alleged immaterial reality, [1] [need quotation to verify] an inner path enabling a person to discover the essence of their own being, or the "deepest values and meanings by which people live."

Since the 1980s there has been a growing interest in the Spiritual Exercises among people from other Christian traditions. [3]
In number theory, a weird number is a natural number that is abundant but not semiperfect. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In other words, the sum of the proper divisors ( divisors including 1 but not itself) of the number is greater than the number, but no subset of those divisors sums to the number itself.
Every pair a, b of friendly numbers gives rise to a positive proportion of all natural numbers being friendly (but in different clubs), by considering pairs na, nb for multipliers n with gcd(n, ab) = 1. For example, the "primitive" friendly pair 6 and 28 gives rise to friendly pairs 6n and 28n for all n that are congruent to 1, 5, 11, 13, 17 ...
