Tibetan mandala ’sweeping’ ceremony
November 11th, 2007, filed by Nic Fulton
Tibetan Buddhist monks perform the final ’sweeping’ of a mandala in St John the Divine cathedral in New York city.
The mandala is made by hand pouring colored sands onto a table. The design is memorized by the 4 monks involved and took 7 days. At the end of the ceremony the sand was swept into a vase and then was taken to a pond in a park and poured into the water.
