mandala of compassion

The Buddhist monks of Ari Bhöd were once again invited to the Hammer Museum to create a sand mandala. Starting with a clean wooden board, the monks spent two weeks fulfilling the design of the “Mandala of Compassion.” The event concluded with the dispersion of the sand at the Pacific Ocean.
