The Kalachakra sand mandala       

The Kalachakra sand mandala. Created over a period of several days by skilled lamas, the mandala is made entirely of colored sand which is spread by tapping a funnel to control the position of each grain. The mandala is a floor plan of the abode of Kalachakra, who resides with his consort at the center, surrounded by symbols of the elements and hundreds of other deities. At the end of the ceremony, the mandala is swept up and tossed into the nearest body of water. Madison, Wisconsin.
