The Mandala is a sacred cosmogram used as an object of contemplation. It depicts the pure nature of the world in which we live as well as how we can live most effectively. When Buddhist monks create a sand Mandala, they believe we bring the creative energy of that sacred dimension into our lives and attune ourselves to this natural perfection.
