Tibetan Drepung Loseling monks sand painting

Today is the third day that we have been very honored to host the Tibetan Drepung Loseling monks who have been creating a Mandala sand painting, which is a sacred cosmogram used as an object of contemplation. Hundreds of students and faculty have stopped by each day to watch progress being made on this amazing piece of sacred art. The monks will continue their work until tomorrow. At 1:30 tomorrow afternoon, they will hold their closing ceremony and dismantle the Mandala.
