Buddhist monks meditating in a crop circle
Buddhist monks meditating in a crop formation at Cheesefoot Head in Hampshire, England. Crop formations or crop circles are patterns of flattened plants in crops such as wheat or barley. They started appearing frequently in the mid-1980s in south-west England. Their cause is unknown. Many theories exist, ranging from science-based physical explanations such as the " plasma vortex" theory based on the phenomenon of electrohydro- dynamics (EHD) to suggestions that they are created by extraterrestrial intelligences. Some people believe they are due to an unknown physical or mystical earthly force

Crop Circle Crop Formation Meditation Tranquil
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a serene moment amidst the enigmatic beauty of a crop circle at Cheesefoot Head in Hampshire, England. In this extraordinary scene, Buddhist monks find solace and tranquility as they engage in deep meditation within the intricate patterns of flattened plants. Crop formations, like the one depicted here, have puzzled scientists and intrigued enthusiasts since their frequent appearance in the mid-1980s. The cause behind these mysterious phenomena remains unknown, giving rise to various theories that range from scientific explanations to extraterrestrial involvement. While some attribute crop circles to natural forces such as plasma vortices or other physical phenomena rooted in electrohydrodynamics (EHD), others propose more mystical origins. Speculations about unknown earthly energies or even communication from intelligent beings beyond our planet continue to captivate imaginations worldwide. In this image, however, we are invited to witness a peaceful convergence between ancient spiritual practices and an unexplained marvel of nature. The juxtaposition of Buddhist monks immersed in meditation against the backdrop of an intricate crop formation evokes a sense of harmony between humanity's quest for inner peace and our eternal fascination with the mysteries that surround us. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph by Science Photo Library, let us contemplate not only the tranquil presence of these meditating monks but also ponder on the profound questions raised by these mesmerizing crop circles - reminders that there is still much left for us to explore and understand within our vast universe.
