Rabbi Ariel Bar Tzadok has written: "Our holy Sages have taught us that the Torah is so sublime and mystical that it is the blueprint of the entire universe. More than this, the Torah acts as an "owners manual" for the human race. Ben Hey Hey tells us in Pirkei Avot that everything can be found in the Torah. In the holy Zohar, Rabbi Shimon Bar Yohai tells us that the Torah contains within it all the sublime secrets of the universe. Indeed, whatever the likes of a Stephen Hawkins will discover about cosmology, whatever any scientist will discover in any field that will win him/her a Nobel Prize, all of these discoveries are already in the Torah, if only we knew how to extricate them from their concealment. The holy Mekubalim (those who KNOW kabbalah) have for centuries emphasized the mathematical aspects of the Torah known as gematriyot; how each letter is a number and every word a code. Finding equal numerical values between letters, words and phrases enables us to discover previously unknown relationships and revealing to us secrets of life."
