A mandala is a geometric motif, often circular, that represents the universe in Hindu and Buddhist traditions. The word "mandala" comes from the ancient Indian language of Sanskrit and translates to "circle."
Mandalas often feature complex patterns radiating from a central point. They are used as spiritual symbols, aids to meditation, or for artistic expression.
The process of creating mandalas, whether through drawing, painting, or construction, is considered sacred and meditative. Artists engaging in the meticulous creation of these harmonious motifs enhance their concentration and act mindfully.
The circular shape represents the cyclical nature of the Universe as well as the unity and interconnection of all forms of life.
The therapeutic use of mandalas has become popular in art therapy, where individuals create mandala artworks to explore their emotions and achieve a sense of balance.
Mandalas hold a universal significance and serve as a source of inspiration and contemplation for many people worldwide.
