𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐬𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐥𝐚 𝐂𝐞𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠


Sitting beneath a cosmic mandala ceiling is an experience of being held within the universe itself. The intricate designs and radiant geometry symbolize the vast expanse of the cosmos, reminding us of the interconnectedness of all beings and phenomena. 


To stay under such an image is not merely to admire art, but to rest in the center of sacred order — where the outer universe, the inner mind, and the secret essence are reflected as one. It inspires calm, reverence, and a deep sense of belonging to the infinite.


Next time you visit a monastery or Dzong and encounter a mandala, take a moment to sit or stand beneath it. Allow yourself to absorb its sacred energy, reflect on its symbolism, and receive its blessings. Even a brief pause can open a doorway to peace, clarity, and inspiration.

As Bodhicitta is so precious,
May those without it now create it.
May those who have it not destroy it,
And may it ever grow and flourish.
