Sarva gattah Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 667 meters is substantially less than 800 meters. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/4081885.stm Interesting, good point, there is even one that will be 1000 meters in Dubai not far from the Burj Dubai Tower. I supose the Musies have got to spend all their oil money on something. The Al Burj will taller than Burj Dubai upon completion. The final height of the Al Burj Sky scraper will be over 1000 meters Al Burj Sky scraper will be 1000 meters high BELOW The Burj Dubai Tower BELOW (823 meter) Al Burj Sky scraper ............The Burj Dubai Tower The Al Burj Sky scraper will be nearly three times taller than the Empire State Building in New York and twice as high as the now destroyed (by Muslim fanatics) World Trade Centre also in New York City. Maybe Ambrish prabhu can build a 1500 meter Temple at Mayapur although I would rather see the money spent on putting Prabhupada's books in every school library and houshold around the world!!

gHari Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Vedic place: "30 million square feet of liveable space on 160 floors" which is over five times the area of the other taller tower of 500,000 square metres. But how will it be built? Who has this zillions of dollars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inedible Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Why is such a building needed in order to teach the Vedas anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beggar Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Why is such a building needed in order to teach the Vedas anyway? Because the building will also have 16 nuclear powered rocket engines at it's base and will be capable of interplanetary travel. _____________ "The fact that a believer is happier than your Mama is no more to the point than the fact than a your Mama is happier than a sober lady when she's as drunk as a skunk." - Malcolm X, before conversion to the Nation of Islam:eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarva gattah Posted April 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Just over 2 kilometer high Why is such a building needed in order to teach the Vedas anyway? Man today is trying to build the Kingdom of God (Krishna) WITHOUT God. Such buildings will decay and fall down in time, if Musi terrorists and earthquakes don't get them first. I would rather see the money spent on putting Prabhupada's books in school libraries and house holds all over the world, than even see a 1500 meter Temple even built at Mayapur!!

gHari Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 The rich go to India. Where do they go - the Taj Mahal. They would go to the biggest building in the world were it there. The world would wonder why this Vedic-thing is so important that so much was spent on preserving its existence. And the books too. Let us each do our part wherever we are whatever our assignment. We little spiders also make a sound in the symphony of love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world would wonder why this Vedic-thing is so important that so much was spent on preserving its existence. And the books too. Let us each do our part wherever we are whatever our assignment. We little spiders also make a sound in the symphony of love. Now for a history lessons time for the young ones! From my School teachering days The one on your right (the Japan building) will be three times bigger than the World Centre of Vedic Learning on the left Yes you are right, build the Vedic Temple 4 kilometers (2.4 miles high) and they will come. Mount Everest, the world's tallest (terrestrial) mountain and a part of the Himalayas, is 8,848 metres or nearly 9 kilometers high (29,028 feet OR 5.5 miles) high. Everest is usually quoted to be about 29 000 feet. However, the Himalayan mountains sit on a plateau that is already about 10 000 feet above sea level. Measuring Everest from its foot to its peak is then 29 000 minus 10 000 foot or about 19 000 feet -- while not miniscule (see Mountains of Denmark) is certainly not the biggest. For the tallest mountain in the world one must go to the Hawaiian Islands to see Mauna Kea which, from its base on the bottom of the ocean to its peak is about 33 000 feet! However, for the highest point on the earth one must look to mount Chimborazo in Ecuador. Although only about 20 000 feet high it sits on a 5 kilometre equatorial bulge that places someone on the top of the mountain the furthest from the centre of the earth than anywhere else on earth. Reminds me of the story of Babalyon in the Bible when fools tried to build a stair case to the heavenly planets. From a distance, even Mt Everest is just a speck on the surface of this planet.

Amlesh Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Does not really matter, since the best place to acquire Vedic Knowledge is under a Banyan Tree. However as predicted, the wheel of time does mutate our physical world, leaving and developping only one jungle on its passage, the concrete jungle.
