Rat Na
''Rat na'' (, , ; literally: 'topping'), also written ''rad na'', is a Thai-Chinese noodle dish. The name of the dish is pronounced in Thai colloquial speech. It is made with stir-fried wide rice noodles, a meat such as chicken, beef, pork, or seafood or tofu, garlic, and '' gai lan'' (; ). The dish is then covered in a sauce made with fermented soy beans and thickened with tapioca starch or cornstarch. It is seasoned with dark soy sauce, fish sauce, and ground white pepper. In Thailand, people often sprinkle some sugar, fish sauce, sliced chilies preserved in vinegar (with some of the vinegar), and/or toasted, ground dried red chilies on the dish.

Hindu temple architecture, which makes extensive use of squares and circles, has its roots in later Vedic traditions, which also influence the temples' construction and symbolism. Through astronomical numbers and particular alignments connected to the temple's location and the relationship between the deity and the worshipper, the temple's design also illustrates the idea of recursion and the Microcosm–macrocosm analogy, equivalency of the macrocosm and t ...
