Intricate crop circle of Buddhist symbol for infinite time and wisdom appears in crop field

| Buddhist endless knot symbol illustrates perceptions of reality. |
This is the latest intricate crop circle to appear overnight in a British wheat field.
The mysterious pattern resembles the ancient Tibetan Buddhist symbol of an "endless knot" -- a complex loop of lines and circles to illustrate the eternal flow of time.used
The symbol has many meanings, but because it has no beginning and no end, many people who follow the religion say it represents the wisdom of the Buddha.

This endless knot crop circle has been carved into a field at Cheesefoot Head, Winchester near the A272 motorway. Amateur pilot Matthew Williams snapped the pattern near Cheesefoot Head, Hampshire.
He said: "I’m a bit of a sceptic. But this is such an intricate design, I don’t know who could make such a thing." He added, "To me, there’s such peace and calm emanating from this formation! The tangled mass of twists and turns release some great energy when you realize it is an unbroken line."
By walking from any one point in this huge formation, it is possible to walk all the way around, covering every inch of carved-out path and return to the start [just as wisdom emanates from and returns to the heart].
Crop circles have been appearing in fields throughout the summer. Some believe they are signs left by space aliens and UFOs. But others think they are made by pranksters. [There is little doubt that both are true.] More
