and a mosque in shiraz

you can clearly see the differences

I would hope heaven is a bit prettier.

Oh thank you so much OP
i was having such a bad day, and i felt calm and in peace for about couple of seconds

weird huh?

a glass Iran will look so much prettier than this will ever be

That would suck if Heaven was a cold, glitzy, tacky celestial casino.
That ain't my Heaven.
My Heaven would be like a little cottage built behind a waterfall in Middle Earth.

Hey OP, do you have a youtube link to this?

Very beautiful.

It is a Mosque, correct? What does time frame have to do with anything? A building that took a lot of resources and man power to create all in the name of a brainwashing religion.

^^This

i guess i have to change the threads name ... a lot of people don't understands that is was just a figure of speech
geesh

if you were ever high on acid, you would see heaven differently

Its hypnotic, and the repetetiveness facillitates easy mind control.

Scale of a python?! are you serious??
this is coming from an Indian LMAO
you're such a hater
actually Indian art is a sickening one. i've been to india myself and i find hindu arts like a vomit of colors. besides your'e talking about saudi arabia not iran.

Well you didn't mention acid.
The most beautiful thing I ever saw on acid was, a tie:

- campfire embers
- a firewindow in the boiler at our old house
- 4 people fingerpainting with shaving cream on a large black and very dark purple canvas

That's what heaven looks like on acid.

"Shah Abbas the Great of the Safavid Dynasty who lived in the 1600's, had heard from his dignitaries in Venice about that city's beautiful venetian mirrors. The Shah had up to 20 huge venetian mirrors commissioned for his palaces. When the mirrors arrived in Isfahan, Iran's capital in those times, after such a long and turbulent journey, the mirrors were shattered into thousands of pieces. The Shah, who was an avid lover of the arts, asked his skillful artisans to see if they could do something with the beautiful shattered pieces of the mirrors, and thus the art-form of Persian stucco mirror art came into existence. The pieces of mirrors are cut into tiny ornamental Persian patterns and dress the walls and ceilings of countless palaces, mosques and other buildings throughout Iran. The reflection of chandeliers and candles create a dazzling effect of such beauty that no picture can make justice to it - it has to be experienced in person!"

I have to agree with you. It's the basis for Islam

I find nothing about Islamic art appealing, if anything it makes me uncomfortable. Although I do like the colors.

awww thats so sweet ... but no thats not acid
thats just being normal..now imagine you saw all those things on acid

hear it from terence mckenna or joe rogan for example

Love to hear cool, historical stuff that is new and fascinating - thanks for sharing. And the visuals are amazing. You know how women love their bling!

Am I understanding you correctly, all the acid I did in my 20's, was...not acid?
What was I taking?

So heaven is full of mirrors?

I fear for the generations of humanity because they have been enthralled and hypnotized by blinking lights and shiny baubles.

OP - On YouTube, it says this clip was taken from the movie/documentary Baraka.

If you have not seen the entire movie, you really should! I know you will love it.
