I think that the setting of the final installment will be a bridge between old and new

Speaking of which I find it interesting that Mateusz choose Shiva; Shiva is the Hindu god of dissolution after all...

Earlier you guys were talking about Layer Eight the Layer of Light....and there were those photo earlier...
With the Light Spectrum and the Colors, I now figure out a part of the Temple architecture.

When I saw these I just thought they were air vents like you find in the Pyramid of Giza.
Now...I think I have a better idea of what they are for.

The lunatic is on the grass
The lunatic is on the grass
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs
Got to keep the loonies on the path
The lunatic is in the hall
The lunatics are in my hall
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forbodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
The lunatic is in my head
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You re-arrange me 'till I'm sane
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me.
And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

"I can't think of anything to say except...
I think it's marvellous! HaHaHa!"

Yeah, please understand when I point that out earlier.
I wonder why Mateusz put all those along the side of the Temple.
Plus, I know when he creates his games he works on every little detail.
But also base the architecture on actual location on earth.

This theory would work so well if only there were seven air vents and not nine.

But, the Vents could be part of the prism. Light comes in one end, and color comes out the other.
Plus, we have to remember the Temple is 3 dimensional. But we don't know its outside length or width. All we have is the game itself, and its 2 dimensional value. We don't know how wide each level is.

Shiva is the Hindu god of dissolution after all...
This is actually largely incorrect, although I don't know whether or not Mateusz would know that. The basic Western conception of Hinduism is that it has 3 main gods, Brahma the creator, Vishnu the maintainer, and Shiva the destroyer, but this is an extremely flawed conception. Brahma is not considered to be an important god in any Hindu tradition; while he is the god who created the world, he himself was created by and subservient to another god. Some Hindus consider Shiva to be this main god. Others prefer Vishnu, and others prefer Devi, who is generally understood to be "The Goddess" and sort of encompasses all Hindu goddesses.

Between Vishnu and Shiva, Shiva is the more esoteric god--he is a yogi and a mystic, both the champion and the source of magical power. Also, followers of Shiva (more often than followers of Vishnu) often internalize their religion--it isn't so much about the existence and worship of Shiva as an actual figure as it is seeking the powers and wisdom of Shiva in oneself.

Also true but not really worth knowing: Vishu is really dark-skinned while Shiva is really light-skinned. I don't think this difference was planned though, I think the traditions surrounding the two gods were originally separate, but eventually got grouped together under the broad title of Hinduism.
