The Flower Of Life isn't so much a completion but a blueprint. The Flower Of Life extends infinitely in all directions.

edit: look at the design. You can "cut it off" at many different sizes and it's the same pattern. How is an infinite pattern ever finished?
what's interesting is that there are seven "strands" of lines from each white circle and seven "lines" of circles coming out from the center one.

But take it a level above. Each "finished" flower can be one "white circle" in a LARGER expression of the flower of life.

Your right,its a ringed sample of a continious pattern.

Am I alone in seeing a similar pattern pretty frequently, while high or whatever? I even remember last time I ate mushrooms staring at my reflection in the mirror for quite a long while because my shirt was showcasing that pattern like a lattice.

First time I ever found out about the Golden Spiral was during my mushroom trips. I never even realized/saw the shape until I saw it everywhere.

I think you are agreeing but I am not sure.

Ive always found it interesting that my visuals on mushrooms lined up with ancient indian/asian carvings on temples. Being that I had no prior (conscious) knowledge of the art.

That pattern is a complete "section" of the flower. It's a completed circle where the "full" circle is what each small circle is. All the small circles create the 5 "lines" you see in them but in the "megacircle" that the entire picture creates. so on this point it is a "complete" flower.

But I agree with you (obviously) that this pattern goes on forever. Since this "full flower" is merely one circle in the inevitable "level up" of the pattern that is infinite.

Isn't it possible that you just ate the same type of mushrooms that they were eating (and were in the same mindset while taking them etc.) when they did the drawing causing you both to see the same images? Could this be true for whoever created the ancient flower image and the relation to mushies?

Just playing devils advocate, not saying I agree with this!

it is quite metaphorical, think of how connected everything is...

yes. But two people seeing truth the same way doesn't negate it as truth, does it?

Yes,the symbol is a small part of the continuous pattern of creation. X

You think monks from the past created a network of astral planes which can be intersected by vibrating a certain frequency? Interesting take, but I would say that you're cluing yourself in to something from that other plane: that that monk is being used by your Higher Self as a catalyst for growth. I would also venture to say that that monk is perhaps a component of your Higher Self, and that he was like a cosmic wink to you to lead you in a direction for a specific purpose: to show or reveal something to you. This thing may have something do to with following your excitement.

If you choose to interpret it as a monk-created network of checkpoints, perhaps that is the direction toward which you ought to be lead. It will certainly reveal more enticing phenomena should you pursue it.

edit: All IMO of course.

I believe,the COMPLETE ancient flower of life is a window into the hidden continuous pattern of creationx

Transcend

Yes, was posing the idea that "the mushroom" pattern is not necessarily related to Asian\South American carvings or culture directly, just that we are all humans doing the same thing and connecting to the same thing\place. So 'it' is always there if you choose to connect to it. Just so happens certain cultures recorded the images and saw significance in them...like some of us.

OR it could be what we are 'connecting to' is the gathered consciousness of those people and cultures and that the images are a way of telling us we are on the right path to...something.

The COMPLETE ancient flower of life is a link back to the universal consciousness. The universal consciousness,we were all part of before we entered this material world. X
