"Colouring mandalas is a creative activity that brings relaxation, healing, and self-understanding. The 72 designs here represent a sense of completion and realization and are meant to give us the feeling of reaping the rewards and benefits from the work we have performed; of realizing and appreciating our achievements; and of resting in the pleasure of having fulfilled a personal creative inspriation. The mandalas in this book aim to help us understand ourselves and our place in the scheme of things; evoke a sense of harmony, order, and fulfillment; provide relaxation and a soothing balance for hectic lifestyles; uncover meaning in the ongoing stream of human experience; bring our spiritual nature in harmony with our physical nature; and enable us to experience the spiritual energy that inspired these sacred circles.".
