Re: Temples of PrambananRenamed similarity of Borabadur temple design to Sri Chakra
My undestanding is that it was a Buddhist temple. To look at an allied
subject:
I have been intrigued by the similarity of the external view of the temple
with a three dimensional Sri Chakra that we have at our home. Can anyone
shed any light on this ? Was this designed after a Buddhist Chakra ?
