*Fire Puja (Expansion) Sand Mandala - 9:30am - 5:30pm
Mandala means literally "that which extracts the essence." There are many types of mandalas used by the Tibetan Buddhists. They can be created in either of two or three dimensions. The ones on the monks tour will be two dimensional sand mandalas. These are without a doubt the most creative, labor and concentration-intensive of all mandalas created.
Each sand mandala represents the architectural layout of the entire celestial palace of a specific deity. The menla mandala represents the dwelling of the Medicine Buddha, who embodies the perfection of the physical and mental health of all beings.
The sand is applied very precisely by the gentle rubbing of sand-filled metal cone. The Master must be the first to initiate the mandala, and does so by placing the first drops of sand.
Upon completion of the sand mandala, the monks will purposely dissolve the magnificent work of art. The Buddha's last words were "All things are impermanent, work out your salvation with diligence." In upholding the principle that all phenomena are transient, the monks sweep up the mandala and place the sand in a river, lake or ocean to purify the surrounding environment.
This event has been paid for by a very generous local donation to the monks and is free for all to come and watch. It will begin about 9:30 (break from 12:30 - 3) and take approximately 6-8 hours
