A Tibetan monk concentrates intensely as he makes his contribution to a sand mandala at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria.

Meditation written in sand

A heightened sense of reverence seems to take over when you enter the presence of the Tibetan Buddhist monks at work at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria. A group has come from the Gaden Jangtse Monastery in India to be with us for the month of October, where they are patiently at work creating a sand mandala. Their visit is sponsored by the art gallery and the Canada-Tibet Committee.
