It seems like I've seen that somewhere before. Did someone knit that for you? bella_absinthium: it's from hindu mythology cedar http://www.teenagemutantninjaturtles.com/2014/01/07/turtles-folklore-world-turtle-kurma/ The Dark Tower. “"See the TURTLE of enormous girth! On his shell he holds the earth. His thought is slow but always kind; he holds us all within his mind .On his back all vows are made; he sees the truth but mayn't aid this is from a Stephen King book, turtles are actually in a lot of creation myths, the Iroquois use a sea turtle.....I love these creation stories from all different cultures..... bella_absinthium: and even tho the first link has teenage mutant ninja turtles in the link, it actually provides good information about the hindu creation stories involving turtles and elephants couchpotatoewannabe: FINALLY!!!!....
