Some symbols survive for centuries. But do we still know how to see them?
Close Your Eyes to See is a reflective journey into India's ancient temples, their repeating forms, and the questions they continue to awaken — a book about memory, meaning, and how civilizations preserve knowledge across fragile generations.
M.R. Gontu is a technology professional and author based in Chicago, drawn to a single question: how do civilizations remember? His work connects the systems that store knowledge today with the stone, symbol, and ritual that carried it for millennia.
