What is the Meaning of Sri Yantra Mandala Thangka

Thangka painting depicting Sri Yantra mandala is considered to be a very special mandala in India. The difference between Yantra, Mandala and Chakra is subtle. While Yantra is a Tantric tool, which represents the union of masculine and feminine, Buddhist mandala is a symbol of cosmic and psychic order.

 

Tibetan mandala (literally a "circle") is a symbol in Buddhism and Hinduism, representing the Universe. Structurally, the Square (Stupa) is circled by circles of fire, earth, wind, water, wisdom and space, symbolising cosmic and psychic order. Mandalas hold spiritual significance and make artistic appearances in cultures & philosophies across the globe.

 

Mandalas use sacred geometry to create perfect geometrical shapes and aesthetic looks, which can help create a sacred space at home. There are a lot of philosophies and studies about the flow and movement of energy within a space and how to guide it to offer the best benefits to the person. Among them, there is Feng Shui which is an ancient Chinese science of harmony and prosperous living. It suggests that one of the best ways to eliminate negative and enhance positive energies around us is to keep art with the positive image and meaning. Mandala's harmonious structure is an iconic choice for interior design.
