In the Heaven of Indra, there is said to be a network of pearls, so arranged that if you look at one you see all the others reflected in it. In the same way each object in the world is not merely itself but involves every other object and in fact IS everything else. "In every particle of dust, there are present Buddhas without number.'   The similarity of this image with the hadron  bootstrap is indeed striking. The metaphor of Indra's net may justly be called the first bootstrap model, created by the Eastern  sages some 2,500 years before the beginning of particle  physics."

Thanks and some sort of apology to ƒUSION Anomaly
