The world is made up of matter, which in turn is made up of form.

Putting aside, every 'why, what and how', we are left with what our eyes perceive on this tangible plane. A playground of shapes, understood through line.

A circle can be seen as a line if observed from the same plane, and it is also a line if you find yourself walking inside or on it. In essence, a circle is a circle only for an outside observer. From within it's just a line with a destiny.

 

"A line is a dot that went for a walk"

-Paul Klee  

 

The Enso, meaning circle in Japanese symbolizes enlightenment, the Universe and the Void, representing perfection and completion. The Chinese build their whole belief system upon the circle symbol and the duality that it represent (yinyang). In a religious context, the circle indicates glory and is a symbolof divinity. 

Having researched the omnipotent cirlce which echoes throughout time and space, I came to the conclusion that the formula and resulting shape of the circle is a symbol of the entire universe.
