From the classical Indian language of Sanskrit, the word "mandala" loosely translated means "circle." Of Hindu origin, the complex organization of geometric patterns is used in Dharmic religions such as Buddhism and Hinduism to represent the cosmic wholeness of life. Mandalas are often used to focus attention during meditation.
