Mandala Mandala means "circle" in Sanskrit. Mandalas are circular diagrams that originated with Hinduism and are used in both Hinduism and Buddhism to increase spiritual awareness.

Mandala Hindu mandalas usually consist of a combination of lines and triangles within a circle and a square, and designs range from simple to very complex. Mandalas symbolize the circular nature of the universe, and people often use mandalas to focus themselves during meditation (prayer).

Traditionally, mandalas are divided into four quadrants. Each detail in all four quadrants of the mandala faces the center, so that it is facing the resident deity of the mandala.

Activity Create a Mandala with symbols representing basic Hindu beliefs. Brainstorm symbols which can represent each of the following: Brahman, Deities, Dharma, Karma, Samsara/Reincarnation. Once the symbols have been decided upon, begin designing your mandala. Use color Glue onto construction paper Write a 5 to 7 sentence explanation of the mandala. What do the symbols mean and why?
