A Buddha Life Mandala is an intricate and symbolic representation of the life and teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, the historical Buddha. This mandala serves as a visual narrative, encapsulating significant events from Buddha’s birth to his enlightenment and eventual passing into Nirvana.
Crafted with meticulous detail, the central figure of the mandala is often the Buddha in a meditative pose, surrounded by concentric layers depicting scenes from his life, such as his birth in Lumbini, his renunciation of royal life, his enlightenment under the Bodhi tree, and his first sermon at Sarnath. Each layer and element within the mandala is imbued with symbolic meaning, reflecting key teachings and principles of Buddhism.
