Gudrun replied to Annaig56:

Merci, Annaig! Western culture has adapted mandalas for other uses, for Buddhists they have spiritual meaning and only the most enlightened monks can fully grasp it. Way beyond my abilities, I wouldn't even try;-)

So - you do your transcendental meditation in front of your fridge? :-)))

Having never heard of a mandala until today, I've just watched a programme on the Himalayas, and have seen a beautiful mandala made by the monks.

Gudrun replied to Amelia:

Thank you so much, Amelia! Actually, I have no idea how to meditate, I'll leave that to the Buddhist lamas;-) I can imagine that the programme about the Himalayas must have been interesting, Tibet has always been a dream of mine.
