It's as though you yourself have to expand subjectively to fill the void you are placed within; and when the architecture and colours are as seductive as in these photos you feel you are in good hands and can let go safely. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fleetwood_macncheese@... wrote : These are breathtaking, gorgeous, eye of God creations!

Yes, but then art brings it back again into the depths of the inner spaces. Awareness travels outwards to perceive the object, the art and hopefully the art takes you past itself or actually boomerangs your awareness back toward the deeper parts of your perception. Art, for me, always has to take me somewhere - even if it is just back into myself.

I think Ann said that... Yeah, can you imagine seeing these monuments several hundred years ago?

Very trippy. I've always preferred the spacious interiors of mosques with their absence of distracting clutter to churches or synagogues or what-you-will. It's as though you yourself have to expand subjectively to fill the void you are placed within; and when the architecture and colours are as seductive as in these photos you feel you are in good hands and can let go safely. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fleetwood_macncheese@... wrote : These are breathtaking, gorgeous, eye of God creations!

Tremendous things, these mosques. They appear infinite and the distance recedes seemingly into some vast and limitless space. The colors are rich and vibrant and if I didn't know better I'd say I was looking through a kaleidoscope or through a microscope at an array of incredible cellular material orgazing through the Hubble telescope at faraway star nebulae. But some gothic cathedrals also soar and draw one upwards. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, fleetwood_macncheese@... wrote : These are breathtaking, gorgeous, eye of God creations!
