The event is sponsored by Baruch-Rubin Museum of Art Project.

Monks from the Namdroling Monastery located in Southern India will build the mandala in one day.  Usually the creation of this ceremony is 4-7 days.

A mandala represents some kind of deity or deities.  For instance the Kalachakra mandala contains 722 deities.  The mandala ceremony honors these deities which can also be known as or called gods.  It is intended that the ceremony will release a blessing into the region from these deities or gods.

San Francisco will be “blessed” with the presence of Tibetan Buddhist monks, six of them from the Drepung Loseling Phukhang Monastery located in South India.

They are coming to perform a religious ritual sand mandala in the Asian Art Museum.  They believe it will generate positive effects which will radiate over the whole region by blessing the environment and all living beings.

In previous mandala religious rituals Tibetan Buddhist monks have stated that they are paying homage to the god’s of the underworld.

There is extensive teaching brought forth by prophet.tv on mandala rituals and the gods that they evoke.  For specific information start here at the Building the Warrior Teaching Series.
