This is an original wheel of life Bhavacakra Mandala Thangka painting with silk brocade. This Thangka depicts various activities and life cycle of Lord Buddha. This is a symbolic representation of the material world in which one is forced to take birth, get old, be in pain and die. Mandala in Sanskrit means circle. It represents wholeness and can be seen as a model for the organizational structure of life itself--a cosmic diagram that reminds us of our relation to the infinite, the world that extends both beyond and within our bodies and minds. Describing both material and non-material realities, the mandala appears in all aspects of life: the celestial circles we call earth, sun, and moon, as well as conceptual circles of friends, family, and community.
