What is a Sand Mandala?
Sand mandalas are intricate and colorful creations made from sand, traditionally used in Tibetan Buddhist practices. These mesmerizing artworks serve as a visual representation of the universe and a focal point for meditation. The meticulous process of creating a sand mandala involves carefully pouring colored sand through a narrow funnel onto a flat surface. The designs are often geometric and symmetrical, incorporating various symbols and motifs that hold spiritual meaning.
