The Mandala word comes from Sanskrit and means “What holds together“. It is a circle that symbolises the cosmo and the circle of life. It is formed by a centre and drawings that flow into it. In the Orient, it is linked to the art of meditation, in fact, it is used to focus on the “centre of life”.
Creating mandalas with magnetic tile encourages
