But there are circular patterns images of circles & vortices & such dating back to the Paleolithic Right? Not formal mandalas of Tibet or Medieval Christianity. But it’s a form constant, evidence that it’s not only entoptic but also shows up apart from visual as in hypnogogia

check out Mavromatis’ “Hypnogogia” some hallucinations of circles and vortices have been demonstrated independently from entoptic phenomena associated with architecture of the eyes— suggesting they come from out the psyche or ? (somewhere: collective unconscious?)
