Sand Mandala Creation | Tashi Kyi Monastery


  • Tibet House 22 West 15th Street New York, NY, 10011 United States (map)

Join us November 3-9 as we welcome back members of the Tashi Kyil Monastery to Tibet House US for the creation of a sand mandala!

Open to the public for in person and livestream viewing from 11am-4pm ET.

This ancient Tibetan Buddhist tradition involves the creation of an intricate mandalic design made of colored sand. It is used as a tool for meditation and visualization. The creation of a sand mandala begins with a ceremony consecrating the site and blessing the sand. After the completion of the mandala, it is then ritually dismantled, symbolizing the impermanence of all things in life.

Donations go towards supporting the monastery and furthering the education of the young monks who reside at the Monastery.
