Alif Loci: the 1st 19 years BE

THIS POST IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND NOT FINISHED YET

Dear Readers:

The Baha'i calendar includes a 19-year cycle called Váhid and a 361-year cycle called Kull-i-Shay’ (http://bahai-library.com/bolhuis_kull_shay).  It makes sense to include these cycles in our loci.  Since I don't see different names for the Vahid in the Kull-i-Shay' I'm just going to use the same annual names in the Vahid for Vahid names in the Kull-i-Shay'.  They add up to the right numbers in arabic gematria anyway.

This is going to be a bare outline of my memorization web.  You can probably figure it out if you read the last couple of posts, but don't hesitate to ask questions in the comment box if you have any questions.

Fire--Plasma--Element from the Periodic Table
Air--Gas--The Breath of Life in the Living Word
Water--Liquid--The Linear Flow of the River of Time
Earth--Solid--The Islands of the Earth from Highest to Lowest

THE ALIF CYCLE

SACRED # 1

1 -- H -- Hydrogen
Wikipedia: "This element is found in great abundance in stars and gas giant planets. Molecular clouds of H2 are associated with star formation."

1 -- Kia 1 --
"...the recognition of Him Who is the Dayspring of His Revelation..."
...this summit of transcendent glory, to observe every ordinance of Him Who is the Desire of the world...." (If you are in the unobstructed light, you ought to grow if you are absorbing that light)

1 -- BE 1 --
"The Baha'i calendar started on March 21, 1844. That first year was denoted 1 BE (Baha'i Era). 1844 was the year that the Bab first announced his revelation and the year that Baha'u'llah joined the Babi movement." (http://altreligion.about.com/od/holidaysfestivalsevents/p/bahai_calendar.htm)

1 -- New Guinea, the Highest Island Peak --
Puncak Jaya "Puncak means peak or mountain and Jaya means 'victory', 'victorious' or 'glorious'."  So it means the Peak, Glorious.

Here is a picture of Puncak Jaya from Alfindra Primaldhi on Wikicommons:
