The Tibetan word for mandala is
"kilkhor" which means "centre of the circle with exteriors
walls and surrounding environment." Mandalas may be created with precious
jewels, flowers, dyed rice, coloured stones, or coloured sand. Sand, traditionally
made from crushed precious stones, is considered the most efficacious materials
because of the precious substances involved and the great skill required to
create the mandalas' exquisite details. Since each grain of sand is charged
with the blessings of the ritual process, the entire sand mandala embodies
a vast store of spiritual energy.
