Mandala represents "wholeness" and is also used as an aid in meditation.
The term mandala has become a generic way of describing any circular geometric pattern. The word mandala originated from Sanskrit which means “Circle”. Early versions of the Mandala can be found in the Hindu faith where we would see geometric shapes representing deities. Buddhism took this concept one step further and today if you speak to someone in the Buddhist faith they will tell you that these paintings are in essence a 3 dimensional celestial palace with rooms that contains deities. Let’s call this a mind map, a map to help us further our spiritual journey. Our collection will focus almost entirely on Buddhist Mandalas, a Mandala by Buddhist standards will respect certain basic rules of composition and geometric proportion, although each painting you see is unique in its own way, we will try and cover some of these basic iconographic rules. A Mandala almost always consists of two elements, an outer circle combined with a square positioned inside. In most cases these circles or rings create a pure space protected from external impurities and negative forces.
The number of these circles can differ from one painting to another. In almost all mandalas the outermost circle will show flames which commonly represents protection and the innermost circle with be lotus petals which is the Buddhist symbol for purity. This imagery is typical of Mandalas and Thangkas in general which is why almost all deities are seated on lotus thrones. The square represents this symbolic palace or mind map, which is mentioned in the previous section. Any Mandala will always contain a principle deity it can be painted or symbolized by a lotus flower in the case of the Kalachakra Mandala. This palace can contain any number of deities, but will always contain a principle deity which is always in the very center of the painting. Usually this deity is at the root of your practice.
The Mandala acts as a guide to aid our meditative practice, it is through focus and meditation that we are able to access this celestial palace. On each side of the square in the four cardinal directions, there is an entrance to the Mandala. This is our access to this celestial world, a teacher or guru will help guide you through the palace until you can visualize each part.
In certain cases there are figures above and below the mandala, these are the representations of the celestial world and our world.
Mandalas are used by practitioners as an object of focus. Presence of a Mandala painting in a room creates a vibe of peace and calmness in the room.
