"Mandala means center, circumference or sacred circle in Sanskrit. Most mandalas are circular, symmetrical, and abstract, though some are depicted as a triangle or a square. The circle represents totality of self and life. Symmetry reminds the viewer that when change occurs in part of the soul, all of the individual's life is affected. Abstraction indicates activities of soul and spirit, not physical-literal activity."More papers on The Mandala:
