Description
This artefact is a perfect representation of what the Nepalese handicraft can produce to delight our senses and strengthen our practice. Beautiful wood mandala handmade and painted with Buddhist symbolic colours. This very mandala was carved and engraved on several levels to display a greater depth. Starting from the inside, a double dorje adorns the top and follows a beautiful lotus with 8 petals that incorporate the eight auspicious signs also known as auspicious symbols. • The treasure vase (kalasha - boumpa) is an endless rain of long life, wealth, prosperity wishes. In fact, all that is good for mankind in the time and spiritual realms. • The lotus (Padma - Pema) symbolizes the purification of the body, speech and mind as well as the full development of the beneficial activity in the state of liberation. • The dextrorotatory conch (dakshinavarta-shanka) is a curl that symbolizes the profound Dharma which spreads far and increases aspirations, abilities and predispositions of the disciples, awakens the sleeping beings from ignorance and encourages them to do their own good and the good of others. • The glorious endless knot (shrivatsa - pelbeou) represents the interconnectedness of all things, including the practice of Dharma and the support provided by the Sangha. • The umbrella (chatra - douk): the precious umbrella symbolizes the activity that protects beings. In this life, it keeps away diseases, obstacles, accidents, evil spirits, etc. • The Golden Wheel (dharmachakra - khorlo) symbolizes the setting in motion of the wheel of Dharma, that is to say the spread of the Buddha's teaching, both in its theoretical form and in its practical form in all directions and in all ages, teachings through which beings experience happiness and liberation. • Victory Banner (Ketu - Gyaltsen) represents the victory over the negativities and obstacles thanks to the actions of the body, speech and mind. • The gold fish (Suvarnamatsya - sèrnya) augurs fearlessness beings when they emerged from the danger of drowning in the ocean of samsara suffering and they have the ability to move freely in the world of transmigration, like a fish in water moves freely and without fear. This lucky mandala was handmade by a master craftsman in Nepal.
