Satisfyingly Symmetrical

I'm not a fan of religion. Its perhaps the leading cause of death and destruction and the biggest divider that keeps us from uniting as one. However, for me Buddhism is more of a philosophy than a religion. The expensive buildings and gold statues? I wonder what Siddhārtha Gautama would say about that? For me this photo isn't about its symmetrical beauty or its display of architectural talent or even how much it all cost, for me its about the ideology and philosophy that lies behind those temple doors.
