Mandala Calling

These are some of my mandalas created in meditation. Mandalas are the Hindu and Buddhist symbols for the universe, although they are found in many cultures and religions, including among the Navajo Indians and Tibetan monks. They're often created or used as a tool for meditation. "Mandala” means “circle” in Sanskrit.
