The Flower of Life is the name New Age movement author Drunvalo Melchizedek gives to a geometrical figure composed of multiple evenly-spaced, overlapping circles. This figure forms a flower-like pattern with the symmetrical structure of a hexagon.

A "Flower of Life" figure consists of seven or more overlapping circles, in which the center of each circle is on the circumference of up to six surrounding circles of the same diameter. However, the surrounding circles need not be clearly or completely drawn; in fact, some ancient symbols that are claimed as examples of the Flower of Life contain only a single circle or hexagon.

Drunvalo Melchizedek has called these figures symbols of sacred geometry, asserting that they represent ancient spiritual beliefs, and that they depict fundamental aspects of space and time. Melchizedek claims that Metatron's Cube may be derived from the Flower of Life pattern, and that the Platonic solids within it were "thought to act as a template from which all life springs." Melchizedek has been teaching the Flower of Life at workshops since 1985.

The Flower of Life and the Seed of Life are linked by New Age authors with the Biblical prophet Enoch, the Archangel Metatron, the six days of Creation, the Vesica Piscis religious symbol, and Borromean rings.

What am I supposed to be seeing here?

Anyway my friend ask me to give a reasonable answer why is there patterns of flower of life from such a old era? I can't say its bullshit because it actually contains all the geometric shapes and other possible explanation of life.
Any reply would be hugely appreciated.
Thank you!

You can absolutely say it's bullshit, it's some of the lamest bullshit ever devised. As a science student you should learn to cultivate skepticism.

Not only does the design not require knowledge of quantum mechanics, it doesn't even require a spirograph. The ancients drew (or carved) it because it's pretty and fairly easy.

[The Grand Nudger]

Same reason that "the ancients" did pretty much everything we've assigned a mystical value to. We just can't accept that things can be that simple, it seems. see: pyramidiots.

Might require some mad skills and steady hands to replicate on an Etch-a-Sketch though.

I am a science student and I try to find answers to everything and give a reasonable answers if not exact. The flower of life is said to give answers to all question. Everything we know until now and future inventions its all there.?
I know that there are long discussion in many forum about it. But what I wanted to know is how come old temples even in my country(Nepal) there are patterns of flower of life(complex patterns). If our ancestors were so educated(since it requires quantum mechanics, different theories and calculation to understand) they should have been able invented nuclear power plants/microprocessor,electricity etc many years before. Instead lived in a pyramid?

How exactly does a bunch of circles that are symetrically aligned explain life?

That's so silly that I have to wonder if you are really confounded by this or if you are just someone that attempts to spread woo by asking others to disprove it.

[Mystical]

No joke, my cousin bases his Christianity on the flowers of life.

To be fair he did a lot of acid in his day..

But I still want to know what the woo is all about.

The answer to your inquiry is....
