The mandala is a complex and profoundly symbolic diagram representing the cycle of existence taught in the Kālacakratantra. It depicts samsara, the cycle of birth and death, comprised of countless Buddha fields and five elemental properties.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe five elemental properties, known as the Five Pure Lights, are earth, water, fire, air, and space. Each of these elements is associated with a specific color, shape, and aspect of consciousness. The mandala illustrates how these elements combine to create the world we experience and how they are constantly changing and transforming.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAccording to the Kālacakratantra‘s cosmology, each of the five elemental properties is described by origination, duration, and destruction. This means that each element has a beginning, a middle, and an end, and that all things are subject to change and impermanence.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Kalachakra Mandala is a powerful tool for meditation and spiritual practice. It represents the path to enlightenment and the ultimate liberation from the cycle of birth and death. Through study and contemplation of the mandala, practitioners can gain a deeper understanding of the nature of reality and the true nature of the self.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSize of the painting: 24 x 24 inches ( 60 x 60 cm)- Excluding outer border approx. 3 inch\u003cbr\u003e\nMaterial: Handmade Cotton Canvas\u003cbr\u003e\nColor: Natural, Stone color, Tibetan Glue,\u003cbr\u003e\nQuality: High, Quality\u003cbr\u003e\nFrame: None\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nShipping: Free Standard Shipping with International Tracking Number.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDuty and Taxes: As applicable by the country of destination.
