A masterpiece of the wonders of the world, turned out beautifully but also built with a powerful intellect as well.
Jakarta, Indonesia – Borobudur Temple was built between the years 750 and 842. But who would have thought the temple was built using a new mathematical calculations known at about the 80’s.
“Borobudur is fractal, a new contemporary geometry structure known in the decade of 80s in the modern mathematical sciences,” said researcher Bandung Fe Institute, Rolan MD, in conversation with AFP on Monday (11/14/2011).
Fractals are geometric shapes that have elements similar to the overall shape. Often a fractal has a certain pattern that repeats with a recursive and iterative.
One of the monumental buildings that have implemented the concept of fractal geometry, according to them is the temple of Borobudur, which is defined as one of the World Heritage Site (world heritage site) by UNESCO.
“The measurements we did on each part of the Borobudur Temple, confirm this mathematically,” says Hokky Situngkir, researcher and president of Bandung Fe Institute, in a recording Videocast that he uploaded on the video site YouTube.
According Hokky, Borobudur was built space that has a similarity with the elements themselves. In the Borobudur, for example, there are many forms of geometry stupa. “Candi Borobudur stupa itself is a giant in which consists of stupas of other smaller ones. Keep up to infinity,” he explains.
In addition, Hokky explains, it is also verified by measurements Parmono Atmadi from UGM, which sees order Borobudur buildings that meet the elements of 9:6:4 ratio.
Ratios, for example, is present at high proportions of three parts of the temple, which is part Arupadhatu (formless world) – the main stupa and stupas that form a circle, the Rupadhatu (the form) – the part that covers stupas are located on the runway square shaped, and the Kamadhatu (lust of the world) – the legs.

Hokky also said, that the actual stupa itself is a form of three-dimensional ellipsoid that satisfy the ratio 9:6:4. “This order we meet in all parts of Borobudur, either horizontally or vertically,” he said.
Not only that, says Hokky, observations of Borobudur Borobudur menyimpulkam that meet the dimensional fractal dimensionality between 2 and 3. “Calculations we find that the dimensionality of the temple of Borobudur is between 2 and 3,” said Hokky via electronic mail to VIVAnews.

Crop Circles: A Perspective From the Ground Up
After years of studying sacred geometry—the mathematical geometrical structures inherent in all life forms—I realized that crop circles are predominantly based on the same principles. Knowing from experience how hard it is to draw the most basic of the geometries by hand, even using a compass and a rule, I realized that the complexity and intricacy, the sheer size of these formations is such that only a higher intelligence could create so detailed an image that can only be truly appreciated from an aircraft. Tony agreed that only a higher intelligence could be capable of creating such complex and mathematically perfect design structures. We discussed how we both know people who are experts in computer graphics and admit that even they find it difficult to replicate the designs, which would require many many hours and calculations.
The area of southern England where Chithurst Buddhist Monastery is located has some interesting natural features and also a spiritual history. There are Iron Age remains from the Celts who used to live here and worship trees, and then from the Romans who came after them and built roads and towns. One unusual thing that happens here more than anywhere else are the crop circles which appear very quickly overnight in the fields and nobody could explain how it is possible. Some of the recent ones from Wiltshire (near Stonehenge):

"Whatever form is past, future, or present; internal or external; blatant or subtle; common or sublime; far or near: that is called the aggregate of form (rupa-khandha)."
