Sacred Arts Tour at Mounts Botanical Garden
Join us in welcoming the monks from the Drepung Gomang monastery who are renowned for the Sacred Art of Sand Mandala Construction. They will be creating a Green Tara Sand Mandala (Dol jang), which is the Female Buddha that grants protection and relief from suffering, and generates compassion, love, and peace. Construction of a mandala of this size and intricacy takes 5-7 days to complete with multiple monks working on it for 5-6 hours a day. Each day's events include opening ceremonies and informal conversation with the monks as the mandala is created. Before and after working on the mandala each day, the monks recite prayers in the traditional overtone chanting, with each monk singing a full chord of three notes.
