The largest Buddhist temple in the world, thus becoming the site wonders of the world
Borobudur temple is the largest temple relics Century 9. This temple looks very impressive and sturdy so famous throughout the world. Valuable heritage had a chance to be one of the seven wonders of the world.
But did you know that as well as in other ancient buildings, Borobudur did not escape the mystery about how to make it? This mystery is a lot of speculative opinions that gave birth to controversy. With some notes and references are limited, I try to analyze and uncover the mystery of a little creation of this temple which was not necessary to the mystery!
Borobudur has the basic structure punden terraces, with a six-yard square, three round circular courtyard and a main stupa as a peak. Also scattered in all the court was several stupas. Borobudur temple built on a hill or a row of small hills that extends to the West-Southwest and East-Southeast with ± 123 m length, width and height of ± 123 m ± 34.5 m measured from the flat land around the peak flat hill.
Borobudur temple is also seen quite complex views of the parts are built. Consisting of 10 levels where the level of 1-6 square and round remaining. The temple walls are filled with as much relief image 1460 panel. There are 504 statues that complement the temple.
Material Authors Temple
The essence of land that serves as a base or foundation soil soil Borobudur Temple is divided into two, namely urug soil and native soil forming hills. Urug Land is a land made available for development purposes Borobudur temple adapted to the shape of the building.
According to Land Sampurno was added on top of the original soil morphology as filler and shaper of the temple. Land urug has been made by the founder of the Borobudur Temple, is not a result of the restoration work. Urug soil thickness is not uniform even though located on the same floor, which is between 0.5 to 8.5 m.
Borobudur constituent rock type andesite with high porosity, pore content of about 32% -46%, and the pore holes with one another are not related. Strong compressive strength is relatively low when compared to similar rock compressive strength. From the research Sampurno (1969), obtained a minimum compressive strength of 111 kg/cm2 and a maximum compressive strength of 281 kg/cm2. Heavy rock volume between 1.6 to 2 t/m3.
Mystery of How to Build a Temple
Data on this temple in terms of design, history, and philosophy of building so many available. Many historians and ancient buildings privilege to write about this temple.
Data search results either in a book or the internet, none of which slightly reveals the mystery of how the construction of the temple. The only information is written about the figure of Edward Leedskalnin a strange and mysterious. He said "I have discovered the secrets of the pyramids and how the ancient Egyptians, Peru, Yucatan and Asia (Borobudur temple) lift stones weighing tons only with primitive equipment."
Edward is the man who built the famous Coral Castle. Some people then figure out how to unravel the mystery of her work on her knowledge of how the ancient building is built.
Here are a few people and experts on how to build Coral Castle Edward:
Some say that he may have discovered the secret of the ancient architects who built monuments like the pyramids and Stonehenge.
Some say maybe Edward using some sort of anti gravity equipment to build Coral Castle.
David Hatcher Childress, author of Anty Gravity and The World Grid, has an interesting theory. According to the South Florida area are home to Coral Castle has a strong diamagnetic could make a floating object. Moreover, the south Florida area is still considered part of the bermuda triangle. David believes that Edward Leedskalnin using the principle of net diamagnetic earth that enabled him lifting boulders by using the center of mass. David also refers to Edward notebook found that indeed show the existence of schemes of magnetic and electrical experiments in it. Although the statement of David smelling science, but the esoteric principles still visible in it.
Another writer named Ray Stoner also supports this theory. He even believes that Edward moved to Coral Castle Homestead because he is aware of the mathematical calculation errors in determining the location of Coral Castle. So he moved to the area that has the advantage in terms of magnetic strength.
Finally managed to get a photo taken at Coral Castle Edward's work shows that he used the same method used by modern workers, using a principle called block and tackle.
Different Coral Castle also different Borobudur. Coral Castle is still menungkinkan using Block and Tackle. For taste Borobudur block and tackle is still not there. So how exactly do I create this temple?. The mystery has not been revealed by the information above. I try to start thinking again regardless of the mystery by trying to analyze the existing data.
There are several aspects to consider before estimating how the temple was built, namely:
Building form. The temple is square-shaped tread ± 123 m length, width and height of ± 123 m ± 42 m. Area of 15,129 m2.
The volume of primary material. The main material of this temple is berporositas andesitic rocks with high density of 1.6 to 2.0 t/m3. It is estimated there are 55,000 m3 of stone formers temple or approximately 2 million rock by rock size ranges from 25 x 10 x 15 cm. Weight per piece of rock about 7.5 - 10 kg.
Building construction. Borobudur Temple is a pile of rocks placed on the mound as the core, so it is not a massive pile of rocks. Core soil deliberately staircase steps and the top flattened to put the rock temple.
Each stone spliced without using cement or adhesive. These stones are only connected by patterns and stacked.
All of the stone was taken from the river around the Borobudur temple.
Borobudur temple is a building complex views of the parts are built. Consisting of 10 levels where the level of 1-6 square and round remaining. The temple walls are filled with as much relief image 1460 panel. There are 505 statues that complement the temple.
The technology is available. At the moment there is no technology and material moving heavy lift adequate. Estimated using a simple mechanical method.
Estimated implementation time period. No information is accurate. However, some sources say that Borobudur temple built from 824 m - 847 m. There are other references mention that the temple was built from 750 m to 842 m or 92 years.
Construction of the temple is done gradually. Initially built-storey apartment layout. It seems designed as a terraced pyramid. But then converted. As evidence of a demolished apartment layout. The second phase, Borobudur foundation widened, plus two square steps and one step directly circle given a large stupa. The third stage, steps up the circle with a large main stupa dismantled and removed and replaced by three railroad circles. Stupas built on top of these steps with a large stupa in tengahnya.tahap fourth, there is a small change, namely the manufacture of relief and making changes to the ladder arch above the door.
One thing that is unique, it turns out that this temple has interesting architecture or structured format in mathematics. Each bagain legs, body and head of the temple always has a ratio of 4:6:9. Stupanya placements also has significance, plus a part-expected relief berkatian with astronomy makes Borobudur is an interesting historical evidence for the observed.
The number of stupas at arupadhatu (stupa peak not count) are: 32, 24, 26 which has a comparative basis, ie 4:3:2, and everything is divisible by 8. Height stupa at three levels of TSB. Are: 1.9 m, 1.8 m, respectively bebeda 10 cm. So is the diameter of these stupas, having the same exact size as well with the high: 1.9 m, 1.8 m, 1.7 m.
Some numbers in Borobudur, when added up the numbers will end up being the number 1 back. Alleged that it was made that way can be interpreted: the number 1 symbolizes the Oneness of the adhi-buddha. The number of levels of Borobudur was 10, the numbers in the 10 when added together result: 1 + 0 = 1. The number of stupas in arupadhatu that include statues there: 32 + 24 + 16 + 1 = 73, number 73 when added together result: as above 10 and 1 + 0 = 10. The number of sculptures in Borobudur total of 505 pieces. When the numbers in it are summed, the result is 5 + 0 + 5 = 10 as well as above 1 + 0 = 1.
1. from the data that there is no mention that the size of the stone temple is about 25 x 10 x 15 cm with a specific gravity of the rock is 1.6 to 2 ton/m3, this means the weight per piece of stone is only about a maximum of 7.5 kg (for severe type 2 t/m3 ). Pieces of stone was very mild. For heavy as it rocks, it does not need any technology. The problem that may arise is sloping terrain that must be taken.
Sloping terrain physics make the burden seems to be more severe. This is due to the decomposition of the horizontal force causes no burden to be borne parallel slope. But with the fact that the weight per piece of stone is only 7.5 kg, it issues a beundak sloping terrain ties do not matter. The conclusion is the process of transporting the stone pieces are simple and do not need any technology.
2. source rock material taken from the river around the temple. This means that the distance between the quarry and the site is very close. Although the number reached 2 million pieces, but each piece of stone material light and proximity haul, this means that the transport process can be done easily without the need for specific technologies.
3. temple was built in the time period long enough. Some say 23 years others say 92 years. If you assume the fastest 23 years. Let us count about stone installation productivity. If the land preparation and early material was 2 years old, the future installation of stone are 21 years or 7665 days.
There are 2 million pieces of stone. Productivity stone installation is 2000000/7665 = 261 stones / day. Productivity is it feels very small. No need of any way to produce these small productivity. Moreover, using data execution duration is longer.
4. duration of the process of making the temple could be due no design changes made during implementation. This may dikeranakan the change of rulers (kings) during the construction of the temple.
5. borobudur seen physically so impressive. It has 10 floors with square and circular shapes. Having reliefs along the walls and statues in large numbers. This temple is so concerned philosophy embodied in the measures. This proves that the temple was built with the concept of design is quite good.
6. Borobudur temple is the largest temple. Borobudur temple is also seen complex views of architectural design consists of 10 levels where the rate of 1-6 square and the rest of the round. The temple walls are filled with as much relief image 1460 panel. There are 504 statues that complement the temple.
This is clearly not the work of design and implementation easy. Borobudur temple valuable conclusion from both sides of the civil engineering design and architectural art requires careful planning and management aspects of design and how to implement it. I concluded that this temple was built by the project management is good enough.
CONCLUSION
The above conclusions eventually led me to a general conclusion that the Borobudur temple is different from other pubakala building filled with mystery and mysticism. This temple is more explained by simple physics. How to build this temple is not something that is considered much less mystical mysteries.
This temple is more valuable and famous not the mysteries scattered, but the temple has the value of architecture and civil engineering design and project management skills is high which shows the progress of our nation's forefathers thought. We should be proud!!!
