Philokalia ↔ Zhuangzi
Greek Christian asceticism and Taoist philosophy — no historical contact, no shared vocabulary — confirmed convergent by two independent methods.
Book of the Dead ↔ Popol Vuh
The closest cross-cultural pair in the corpus. Egyptian funerary cosmology and Mayan creation mythology. Two civilizations separated by an ocean.
Gita ↔ Tao: same meaning, different mechanics
Semantically nearly identical. But their transformation profiles diverge significantly. Same destination in meaning space, different roads.
Rumi and Guru Nanak: 0.991
The highest similarity score in the entire corpus. Sufi Persian poetry and early Sikh devotional writing — the closest two traditions come to speaking with one voice.
The gradient is real
Across all 435 tradition pairs, embedding similarity consistently exceeds axis similarity. The sacred vocabulary is universal. The transformation mechanics are not.
