mandala

Have you ever looked closely at a snowflake or a bicycle wheel?
Have you ever noticed how symmetrical they are?
Well, the way they are designed is somewhat like a kaleidoscopic shape, and that is called Mandala.
The word Mandala comes from Sanskrit, meaning center or circle. All Mandalas have a center and some form of symmetry & balance.
Examples of symmetrical Mandalas are all over nature, & they are not only beautiful works of art, they illustrate some basic mathematical principles.
Every cell in our body is a living Mandala. So is the iris of our eye, a snowflake, a bicycle wheel, and the planet earth.
Cool!
