The Mandala Principle

INTERCONNECTED

“Mandala” comes from the Sanskrit word for “circle” and represents the concept of unity and harmony. Every piece of a mandala works together to create a complete and beautiful image. The Mandala is a form of teamwork that involves recognizing and valuing all parts of a system, giving maximum effort as one, and achieving harmony.

A family unit or the human body can be likened to a mandala, where each member or organ represents an essential part of the overall structure. Like the spokes of a wheel, each member contributes to the stability and integrity of the system; if one member is affected, the balance and harmony of the entire unit may be compromised, eventually leading to its collapse.

In today's world, it's more important than ever to come together and work as one. We need to make a concerted effort to foster togetherness in our homes, our communities, our nation, and our world. We truly are all in this together, and by working together, we can achieve great things.
