The Sanskrit term mandala (dkyil ’khor) literally means “circle,” both in the sense of a circular diagram and a surrounding retinue. In Buddhist usage the term encompasses both senses, because it refers to circular diagrams that often incorporate depictions of deities and their surroundings.

The mandala represents a sacred realm—often the celestial palace of a buddha—and it contains symbols and images that illustrate aspects of the awakened psychophysical personality of the buddha and that indicate Buddhist themes and concepts.

Symbols are physical manifestation that can signify the ideology of a particular culture or that merely has meaning within a culture. Through the ages, symbols have allowed us to  go beyond what is known or seen by creating linkages and allowed communication through the use of symbols. 

We are surrounded by symbols all our lives. Yet, the ones that have defined our existence could have been overlooked, undervalued and never understood by us. 

Delving into the symbols that represent my culture has allowed me to understand the nature and system of our beliefs and how it binds me to my society.  It’s also empowered me, guided me and brought me closer that I lacked.
