How do you make a mandala?
This is how to make a mandala using a compass.
The compass point should be placed in the middle of the circle. Draw a circle jumping over each petal. To create a smaller circle, use the compass. You can repeat this process as many times you like to make a series of rings that surround the petal shapes. You can also draw your circles starting from the center, as I demonstrated in the video.
You might also wonder why mandalas were destroyed. The destruction of the mandala is a reminder about the fragility of life. The coloured sand is collected into an urn, and then dispersed into running water. This allows the world to benefit from its healing properties. It is considered a gift to mother earth, to help re-energise our environment and the universe.
