Subject: RE: BS: New Icons ?
Buddhists did this much earlier (500 A.D.), when the Chinese Hua-Yen school adapted/adopted the Jewel Net of the Hindu God Indra to the working of Avalokitesvara in the totally interconnected universe. This sets out how to strive for compassion without being bound down by the Internet and all other nets.
