Hence it’s apt to say that all buildings and even the land on which a building is erected has vibrations of energy associated with it. Many of India’s ancient science and knowledge also got neglected and received very less attention over centuries, hence today’s fast paced society has very limited or no knowledge of vastu and find it difficult to appreciate and use the benefits of vastu while purchasing/constructing accommodation, office, home etc. In ancient India period, people believed accommadation as a living organism and treated constructing a house as sacred ceremony.

The expressions Mandala, Chakra and Yantra are synonymous. Mandala is explained as that which gathers the essential detail (mandam laati).The Chakra and Yantra too perform similar functions. Like Chakra, the Mandala too denotes visualization, an act of bringing together all significant details; those details might pertain to the world or the body or the structure of the building or whatever. It also brings together the outer and the inner faculties or energies. Though all the three mean the same, they have somehow seemed to have acquired distinct forms. For instance, Chakra suggests a circular form, while the Mandala might be a figure of any shape, but commonly a square. While both Chakra and Mandala are liner representations, Yantra is a three-dimensional
Describe the operation of virtual memory management.

The primary difference resides in the two contrasting types of art – a bronze sculpture and a woven blanket. This difference is connected to several other variances within the formal elements, such as texture and color. The Spirit of Haida Gwaii, due to the nature of bronze, is smooth, semi-glossy, and is a dark nearly black color. The Chilkat blanket is likely rough and coarse because of the woven wool, and have a variety of natural colors – like browns and yellows, but also black. Contextually, the two pieces differ dramatically.
Geometric Character Analysis is a technique that allows to explain the differences among two or more characters, by using geometric shapes to better clearly, and precisely present the key points in their personality, and/or relationships. Not only a basic shape can be used, but a variety of shapes, colors , sizes , and lines essential to provide an effective mechanism to explain in a compelling way, differences, similarities, and more. In this case the book Tangerine by Edward Bloor has two characters, Eric Fisher and Paul Fisher who don’t have very much in common, but by using symbolism to effectively represent their personality traits and relationship you can understand who they are in different way, possibly finding something you may not
Also Squares and circles were placed at the points where the principal streets
The Minakata Mandala op.1 (see Fig.5) which is well-known and well-studied drawing of Kumagusu appears in his letter to Hōryu, written on July 18, 1903. In Shingon school, there are two main mandalas which symbolises the two realms of the universe. One expresses the Vairocana Tantra (dainichi kyō, 大日経) and is known as the Womb Realm (Sanskrit: Garbhadhatu, Taizōkai Mandala, 胎蔵界曼荼羅). The other expresses the Vajrasekhara Tantra (kongōchō kyō, 金剛頂経) and is known as the Diamond Realm (Sanskrit: Vajrhadhatu, Kongōkai Mandala, 金剛界曼荼羅). These two mandalas are always displayed in a set (nini-funi, 二而不而 or 而二不二) and are considered to be an expression of the entirety of Dharma.

Even though these two iconic structures come from different cultures and times- they show some similarities in their construction and design elements.
Concepts similar to Shakti, Chit, and Prana can be found in many cultures; for example, it is Prana or vital air in yoga, Qi (Chi or Ch’i) in Chinese culture, Mana in Hawaiian culture, Lüng in Tibetan Buddhism, Ruah in Hebrew culture, and Vital Force, or Orgone energy in current Western esoteric philosophy.

In this form columns are often placed very close together and generally did not have bases to the columns. The shafts of the columns were constructed with concave curves called flutes and the capitals of the columns would be plain and they would have a rounded section near the bottom of the element, these were called the echinus, the capital would also have a square at the top, this element was known as the abacus. Another distinctive part of the Doric form is the frieze of the entablature, the frieze is decorated with vertical channels, which are called triglyphs. The spaces located between these triglyphs are called the metopes, these metopes could be left plain but were often sculpted for extra decoration with ornamentation or figures. The frieze and architrave of the entablature in the Doric form were separated by a band called the
The oval is seen as the face of both the Frida and the locket that the modern Frida (left) holds. The rectangle is seen at the bottom of the traditional Fridas (right) dress. I feel like the shape difference is symbolic of the contrast between traditional Frida and modern day Frida. The rectangles represent the stern, strict and precise rules of tradition. There are many components that add to the depth and concept of this picture, for example the color and lighting.
In conclusion, they have some similarties but they have also different features becuase they don’t share exactly same environment. People,desire for something, geometry they are. I have realized that they are quite different but they wanted to live in better life. So, they put those desire into paintings, sculptures, buildings and it have made culutres. We should understand these context and approach because it is the easiest way to appreciate a work.
