Violet wheel Mandala




Violet wheel Mandala






 

 Violet wheel Mandala is an original acrylic painting with crystals. Size is 29 x 29 cm. It represents inner change.

   The wheel's motion is a metaphor for the rapid spiritual change engendered by the teachings of the Buddha: the Buddha's first discourse at the Deer Park in Sarnath is known as the "first turning of the wheel of dharma." His subsequent discourses at Rajgir and Shravasti are known as the "second and third turnings of the wheel of dharma." The eight spokes of the wheel symbolize the Noble Eightfold Path set out by the Buddha in his teachings.
