Mandala is an old Sanskrit (Indian) word which means "circle."
It loosely refers to any circular-symmetrical spiritual art design.
But as a spiritual art form, the mandala was popularized through the ancient traditions of Tibetan Buddhist monks who create colorful and intricate patterns in a circle out of colored sand and grains while chanting/praying.
Today, it is adapted as a fun andcreative art work through which adults and youth alike (from any cultural or spiritual tradition) can generate vibrations of healing and positive affirmations of peace and gratitude towards fellow human beings, to nature and to God.
