See Buddhist Monks Build a Sand Mandala thru Feb. 11 in Atlanta
EMORY NEWS
GEORGIA - Watch the intricate and fascinating process of building a sand mandala going on now at Emory's Michael C. Carlos Museum. Members of the Emory community and the public are invited to come to the Level Three Galleries and watch Tibetan Buddhist monks from the Drepung Loseling Monastery constructing the sand mandala of Guhyasamaja during museum hours. Once completed the sand mandala will be swept away during the closing ceremony on Feb. 11, a practice that symbolizes impermanence. The mandala construction is part of the special exhibition "Mandala: Sacred Circle in Tibetan Buddhism" through April 15. [link]
