Mandala, in Sanskrit māndārava, means "sacred circle", "center", "completion of the circle", "assembly of deities"; in Tibetan it is translated as dkyil 'khor, phonetically "kyilkhor", meaning "center-surrounding". It was originally a small earthen platform constructed for yogic practice, later developed into a pictorial representation, belonging to the Buddhist art form. This tradition was adopted by Tantric Buddhism, resulting in diverse forms of mandalas.
The creation of a thangka (Tibetan Buddhist painting) requires extensive time and meticulous craftsmanship. They are typically hand-painted by skilled artists, utilizing mineral pigments and precious materials such as gold leaf. Each thangka is unique and distinctive.
