THIS ARCHITECTURE HAS MEANING AND IS TO HELP YOUR SPIRITUALITY. ======================== From Samarkand in Uzbekistan, to Taj Mahal in India, to Andalusia in Spain, it is the same architecture if you look up at the Ceilings. Thank You Proffesor Safi you explained it so well. I understood the message. I hope others can too. --------------------------------- Omid Safi This is what beautiful Islamic architecture does. We move from the periphery (multiplicity) towards the center. In the center, there is unity--which is to say, Divinity. Then there is an opening, a Fatiha. That which is below is connected to what’s above. The internal and external become one. Indeed, as they have always been one. One. May God grant such an opening inside our hearts. (Dome of the Agha Bozorg Mosque in Kashan, Iran.)
