article ’…. ki-kong meditation : There is an unseen flow within and without body which reflects the activity of our mind. In Eastern philosophy, it is called ‘ki’. The word ‘kong’ means ‘practice’. If your mind concentrate strongly on your body, you can see, feel, read and control streams of ‘ki’. The purpose of ki-kong meditation is to see the activity of the mind as it is.’

Giant Tree Made of 80 Different Types of Fabric

Standing 18 meters (or 46 feet) tall, is an awesome new tree sculpture made of 80 different types of fabric. The Baobab Tree, created by Pirate Technics, was inspired by Africa’s baobab tree, which is the oldest living specimen in Africa and has long been a symbol for community. Rings about 16 feet wide were used to build the tree before it was wrapped with fabric. It sits outside the Southbank Centre in London, England.

“During the summer, thousands of people will gather in London and visitors from across the globe will be stepping closer to one another,” said Creative Director Beatrix Eden of Pirate Technics.
