Mandala Art is a spiritual symbol and is commonly used as a form of meditation. Mandala designs are visually appealing and each design has its own unique meaning.
No wonder we are truly inspired by Mandala, a rare beauty of art which means a circle and represents the Universe.
The meaning of Mandala originates from Sanskrit and the term mandala appears in a sacred text called Rigveda, an ancient Indian collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns.
The basic form of most mandalas is a square with four gates containing a circle with a center point.
Most of the times, Mandalas are used for focusing one’s attention for meditation and trance induction.
