Phosphorus and sulfur appear to be 15 and 16 on the periodic table. Without...zero, there would be no math...is this all supposed to add up to coordinates, maybe?
XOXO, what year did Gautama start his journey? it was something like 900, wasn't it?

Could you ecplain why? I thought a harshad number is a number that is dividable by the sum of its digits. So the largest is not defined.
I got it

Astro - I can't remember. According to Wiki he was born 563 BCE and died 483 BCE. He left home at age 29 and attained Enlightenment at age 35.

She's still right; the largest is six.
So, thus far there's:
15
16
0
66
The symbol for infinity?
6
900-something?--or 29, as X0X0 mentioned. (Could also be 35.)

I reckon "tip infinity" means turn the symbol for infinity on its side, which would be 8

RE: tip infinity I was thinking for tip infinity maybe take the symbol and "tip it over" so... 8

What makes me wonder:
We have three groups of riddles I assume
1st Group: The sulfur phosphorus
2nd group: riddles that lead to a number
3rd group: those strange numbers
What I am not sure about is the "Ponder ..." line. It might belong to the 3rd group.
BTW. I do not understand the connection to Siddharta. Seems not very "logical".

Happy nimbus? I can't stop thinking of smiling clouds and broomsticks.

well this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumulus_cloud
tells of puffy white, happy clouds... The name cumulus comes with a "Cu" abbreviation..
So i thought of cuprum or copper and its atomic number..29

At least the broomstick would lead to 2000, but I do not see the connection to "happy" and the number seems not fitting to the other ones.

I don't know. Siddhartha just popped into my head. Didn't say it was right. It probably isn't
I keep thinking of floating on cloud nine

floating on cloud 9 makes sense...there is also a running shoe called the nimbus 9
