Have you heard of the movie Pi? A very strange movie about an agnostic Jew mathematical genius living in NY. As a boy he stared into the sun despite his mothers warning and suffered horrible headache for the rest of his life. He also saw patterns in the light from the sun. He was working on using prime numbers to see patterns in the stock market to predict the next days numbers.
He met an Orthodox Jew in a deli and they began talking about Torah numerology in the Hebrew language. Eventually he was told of the 216 numbers of G_d. His computer program spit out the numbers and the Jews were after him for the numbers(along with the bankers). He escaped the bankers by the help of the Jews, and a Rabbi demanded he give them the numbers.
He told them, you are not ready. I understand what the numbers mean and you are not ready. He then went home and drilled a hole in his head.
Pi was a very strange movie. I love the scene where he finds his brain in the subway station.
