Beth Latture: What to do with an old globe

I bought a globe at the Salvation Army several years ago.  It had been sitting patiently in my closet waiting for its transformation when I once again ran across the story of Indra's Net.

The story of Indra's Net is a Buddhist sutra about the interconnectivity of life.  From Wikipedia: "Indra's net has a multifaceted jewel at each vertex, and each jewel is reflected in all of the other jewels."  


 Still a work in progress, this is an interpretation of the Jewel Net as it encompasses the world.  Unfortunately, it's difficult to represent the infinite reflection!
