◎Mandalas in Tantra

Tantra is a Sanskrit word meaning, “loom”, “woven”, or “warp” of a woven fabric, and represents a doctrine in which various ideas are woven together and systematized in Hinduism and Buddhism.

 

Below is a brief summary of the types of “Tantras” according to the formation process of the scriptures in Buddhist Tantraism, and their representative Mandalas.

Mandalas are pictures that depict truth and enlightenment

The Kalachakra Mandala is painted by skilled Tibetan painters who have painted Mandalas for over 30 years, bringing together the universe, Buddha, Gods and Goddesses, and Nyorai.

Since the energy of the universe and of Gods have been actualized through the painting of a Mandala, the energy and power of such a prayer should be feared. For those who have experienced this, it is understood intuitively, without having to explain it in words…

To cast pearls before swine means “offering something valuable to someone who doesn’t understand it’s value, is pointless.” Whether or not my pet cat understands the value of a Mandala, for some reason my cat tries to get close to the Mandala to sleep. I’ve heard that cats can see things that humans cannot, and I wonder if my cat senses something positive or an energy that makes my cat want to be by the Mandala. For those interested, this is my cats favourite Mandala: Kalachakra Mandala (Blue)


Meditation in Buddhism is broadly divided into "samatha" and "vipassana", and these two together are called "samatha vipassana."

 

Samatha is a meditation that focuses consciousness on a single subject and calms the mind. Dhyana.

 


Vipassana is a meditation that brings awareness to the sensations that move towards the subject. Wisdom.

Part of vipassana is mindfulness, a meditation in which a specific thing is imagined in your mind.

Esoteric teaching says that the essence of a person’s character can be determined by the color reflected deep within their eyes. Just as the light spectrum of red, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet comes from the difference in vibrations between raw materials, vibrations of the mind create a feeling, and a color, invisible to the naked eye, appears. Here are the primary feelings and their associated colors.
