It's the power and magic of human endeavour when we set our minds to create wonderful things.

It boggles my mind to think that the monasteries and temples of the Ajanta Caves, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, near Aurangabad, India in the state of Maharashtra, were, literally, carved out of the side of a cliff. Where once there had been nothing but solid granite and someone’s vision of what needed to be removed in order to leave a temple behind, there now arch beams, high overhead, made to look like wood, but actually hewn out of stone.
