Tom Marshall works on the symbolic carvings for the Meditation
Center. (Photo by Ron Snipes)
The thirteen sided Meditation
Center came with thirteen
blocks of redwood that were to
go on the corners of the building.
Feeling the need for some
decoration to add a bit of
brightness to the building,
members of the Medition Center
Committee went to Mr. Thomas
Marshall of the art department
to ask for suggestions. Marshall
agreed to help by means of
carving some design on each of
the thirteen blocks. The only
idea offered to him was that they
wished the carvings to carry
some esthetic value.
The final ideas of what the
carvings would be was left up to

nations, as well as of men to owe
their dependence upon the

genuine repentance will lead to
mercy and pardon, and to

Whereas, we know that we

have been preserved these many
years in peace and prosperity;
we have grown in numbers,
wealth and power as no other

have forgotten God; and
Whereas, we have forgotten
the gracious hand which
preserved us in peace, and
multiplied and enriched us; and
we have vainly imagined, in the
deceitfulness of our hearts, that
all these blessings were
produced by some superior

Whereas, intoxicated with
unbroken success, we have

Mr. Marshall. His first thought
was to use the Christian symtHil
of the cross on all thirteen
blocks, but he then decided that
more variety was net'dt'd. In
realizing that the Meditation
Center may be used by some
persons who are practicing
means of meditation otht'r tlian
Christian he consulted with
several students and decided to
portray the symbols of the
world's major religions.
With this in mind, Marshall
began research. He ran into
difficulty with some of the
symbols because they would not
easily lend themselve to wood
relief. Drawings of the symbols
were made and then transferred
into the redwixxl blocks. The
carvings were made with a
small drill and a mixture of gold
and bronze powder suspend*^ in
lacquer was used on the
background of the carved
symbols for distinction.
There are essentially only
eleven main world religions so
the remaining two blocks bear
the Greek symbols of Alpha and
Omega, These will be on either
side of the door. The eleven
religious symbols arc: the Lotus
of Hinduism; the Eight-spoked
wheel of Buddhism; the Cresent
and Star of Islam; the Cross of
Christianity; the Scroll, I-Ching
of Confucianism; the Star of
David for Judaism; a four-sided
emblem for Jainism; the Shrine
of Shintosim; the Sword of
Sikhism; the Ying-Yang of
Taoism; and the Fire on the
Altar for Zoroastrianism.
Working exclusively on these
wood reliefs, the project took
Marshall a total of two months.
