Earth Mandala Workshop
Sunday 13th September, 12pm-1pm
Led by Lindsey Holland, Siobhan O’Donnell & team
The month of September will be dedicated to the Greatly Precious Guru, Padmasambhava, who left treasure for future generations to reveal.
As part of the Padmasambhava Festival Month join us in exploring an ancient Buddhist art form as we co-create a mandala using materials gathered from nature and will be left as treasure for the local community.
A mandala (meaning circle) is a geometric design that symbolises the Buddhist universe and is used as an aid to meditation. Working with mandalas can be a creative way to come into harmony with oneself, with others and with the environment.
Bring along any natural found objects such as flowers, leaves, leaves, pebbles, shells, feathers etc. that you would like to incorporate into the mandala.
Note:
This event will start at the Dublin Buddhist Centre shortly after the Sunday puja finishes at 12pm and will move to a nearby park where the mandala-making will take place. Depending on the weather you may wish to bring your raingear.
All are welcome to attend. Please note that spaces are limited and offered on a first come first served basis.
