The flower of life is a pattern found in many religious traditions. The Temple of Osiris at Abydos, Egypt apparantly contains the oldest example, and other examples can be found in Phoenician, Assyrian, Indian, Asian, Middle Eastern, and medieval art. Andrew Monkman believes that the complete flower is a window on to other dimensions, and he has completed the flower as a three dimensional 'magic picture' so that you can see what lies within. More information on the flower of life, including Andrew's completed flower, are here.
