When the number π has undergone many transformations over the centuries from being merely associated to a circle to identifying itself with infinite series, the bell curve, and even the possible communication with extraterrestrials—from geometry and trigonometry to statistics and probability to infinity and astronomy.

I wanted to find a way to talk to that guy I like, so I stepped on his foot and said « Oups pardon, je t’ai marché sur le pied »

The many whys that promoted mathematicians and math educators (or even nonmath people like artists and creatives) to toy around with the number π for centuries, be it to prove a beautiful theorem, promote the constant in popular culture (art, fashion, perfume, cellphone, movie, and the like), collaborate as a community, challenge tradition, leave a mathematical legacy, or show their intelligence.
Like art and philosophy, pi mesmerizes both math and nonmath people in every corner of the globe. No wonder, those outside the pi community would often ask: What’s the point of pi?

PI is short for the Philippine Islands. Philippine Islands is the old name of the Republic of the Philippines. The Philippines was formerly known as Las Islas Filipinas, named after King Felipe II of Spain, when it was a colony of Spain from 1565 to 1898. Then it was Anglicized and it became known as the Philippine Islands when it became a U.S. territory shortly after the Spanish-American War of 1898. In 1946, upon independence from the U.S., it became a republic. The name of the country was then changed to the Republic of the Philippines.

When there is a hidden element of π residing in all humans (or maybe even animals), whether they know it or not, regardless of their experience of school math—that pi-mind consciousness that intuitively seems to be guided by some Higher Being to convey new insights about the “sacred number” to humanity or any living entity.
When someone puts themselves in a Zen-like or transcendental state, the chances of them experiencing “The pi in me” aha! are higher than when they’re constantly being bombarded with a deluge of sensory input.
