Ohm Shanti Shanti 


This project is really special to me. My life changed from the moment I read "Buddhism Plain and Simple" by Steve Hagen. The path to awakening is difficult but I believe many activities can translate into meditation, in my case it is painting.  Spirituality through geometry is the perfect combination. I can't express how relaxing painting mandalas is. I will be posting all my mandalas on my website, I hope you enjoy them :)  I leave you with is a simple definition of mandalas: Mandalas offer balancing visual elements, symbolizing unity and harmony. The meanings of individual mandalas is usually different and unique to each mandala. The goal of the mandala is to serve as a tool on our spiritual journey as it symbolizes cosmic and psychic order.


Mandalas now available on my etsy shop!
