This is an example (found on google) of what a traditional mandala looks like. They are created for worship, healing, praise, hope, wealth and eternity. I did not create my mandalas based on the religious rituals, but I connected my meditation with this sort of artistic release. Most of the mandalas are very geometric and each line and curve has a specific meaning. It was interesting that most of mine were very organic and curvy, which completely resembles my style.
