4 Easy Ways to Style Our Mandala Collection

There has always curiosity surrounding the mystical and the divine, with spirituality being the new ‘mantra’ in well-being; one of the most common representations that has the internet abuzz these days is the ‘Mandala’. From home decor to beach towels, these intricately patterned designs are always popping up on our Instagram feed. But ‘mandalas’ are not just some exotic trend that has become internet famous lately; these spiritual symbols have been in existence for centuries.  Though in the western countries ‘Mandala’ has become a generic term to refer to any circular ornament used in meditation as a relaxation tool, on the contrary; this symbol usually represented by intricate concentric circles has a deeper meaning. They are spiritual symbols that are considered to be a visual representation of the cosmos.

Mandala is a Sanskrit word which means ‘circle’. So usually a mandala is series of intricate concentric circles with other patterns within it. This spiritual symbol is commonly found in Hinduism, Buddhism and some aspects of Jainism. Just how there is no endpoint in a circle, the circular design of the mandala is symbolic that life is never-ending and everything is connected. Within the circular patterns you will find symbols that are common in most mandalas. The centre of the mandala is a dot which is a symbol that is considered to be free of dimensions, the dot is surrounded by lines and geometrical patterns that symbolize the universe and this is encompassed by an outer circle which represents the cyclical nature of life. As per Buddhism they represent the presence of Buddha’s mind in an abstract form which is usually represented as a wheel, tree, flower or jewel.
