Mandala & Me

Lost my sister-in-law to cancer on the 19/10/2008 after 2 1/2 years of battling with this deadly disease. I am still grieving and feeling very sad for my brother and their daughters. My poor brother took on all the responsiblity and how unfortunate for him. Why him? He has gone through tough times and life is always teaching him lessons and painful ones. I hope he is strong and have courage to face all these lessons. The mandala is for him to be strong and there is always ways out and he is able to overcome any difficulty. Let the all goodness of the universe embrace him and he will come up a winner!

Recently we went on a family trip for 11 days. It has been a long time since we spent so much time together. It turned up to be quite an unexpectation. We had so many disagreements. They were rude to us on several occasions and it is not acceptable.

I hope this mandala will vibrate the positive energy to my family and create harmony and wisdom for us to express ourselves freely without causing unpleasantness

The symbol of Truth. I drew it while I was seeking for some understandings of a problem. I meditated upon it and keep myself calm and still for a while.

The truth came and I understood the root of the problem.

The knot was untied and it was good to know the truth.

Symbol of the the female energy

This symbol was done for my dear granny who has breast cancer coming to about 10 years. I pleaded with the negative energies to leave my granny and let her go. My granny was nursing the wound and I saw the cancer grow bigger and bigger until it cannot contain anymore. It was a difficult decision if she should go for surgery as doctor advised against it because of her old age and it is also a 50/50% chance for her. So it was allowed to stay with her until one day it decided to stay no more and she had to go for surgery because she was bleeding profusely and she could died of bleeding. The cancer cells were found to be non-maligned and she went for chemo-therapy. She suffered the pain and I believe this is one of the most difficult time of her life she has to overcome. I saw my gran grew old from a woman in her 40s until now. A very strong old lady indeed and now she is almost 90 years old. God bless her and there is some mystery behind this ordeal, which I have no chance of asking her but knew that she was very unhappy about.

My Mandala & Me

Crystal symbol for my dear friend who suffered from kidneys failure. When I came to know about it I cried because my friend was so young then. How can her both kidneys failed her? No wonder, she is always easily sick and very thin all these while.

I drew this mandala and pray very hard that she can recover and her kidneys can function again. Sending her all positive energies. After many years, she got a donor and now is off dialysis but she is still weak. I wish her health well and looking forward to outing with her soon.

My eldest daughter is good in her analytical skill and she is very neat and clear cut. She is now married and I always feel that she is too independent and strong headed too. I hope she will fulfil my wish and my husband's to complete her unfinished task. This is our utmost concern and after that she should be able to decide any decision she wants to make.

The symbol is very geometric and rather complex, I hope that this symbol will give her the insight to her life and what she really want to do.

This symbol was done during a retreat led by a tibetan buddhist nun on 'COMPASSION'. During one of the meditation, the image of the 1000 hands buddha appeared before me and I can see her beauty and how she uses her hands to help the people. On the other hand, I can see a dead cockroach lying with its legs facing upward. I was also sending good energy to my two colleagues.

Why the dead roach? I used to kill any roach that appeared before my sight and I really pray that they will not appear before me so I won't kill them. As much as I want to show my compassion to such insect, I just cannot allow them to survive in my house. So I really hope that they will disapper in my world. It is so much easier to be compassionate towards human being than insects.

This symbol was done for a friend in US. I did it without knowing that she was deciding whether to move from Chicago to California. When I was doing the symbol, I knew that it was for this friend and I just did the drawing intuitively without knowing what is it for. When I finished the symbol, I did not know what was its message.

So I sent this symbol to my friend and she told me that when she saw my mandala symbol, she decided to move to California. Then, I realized that the symbol helped her to make a decision. Isn't it a mystery?

My Family

This symbol was done specially for my family. You can see the different characteristics of each individual. I was surrounded by nature when I did the symbol and it was a good feeling. Each stroke I put on my drawing paper, I can feel the loving energies that circle and vibrate the mandala symbol.

Mandala & Me

My Mandala symbol guides me in some of my uncertainty. I draw the symbol to meditate on.

I might not get the wisdom right away but some times it comes as I get on with my daily life. The wisdom will show at the right time. So in this way, I am connected to the higher self. Patience and calmness must be part of the process.

As a mandala artist, I do find myself drawing some symbols that I dislike, for example this one on "Uncertain". It is not what I want to see and the outcome of the symbol is a mystery. The process also taught me how to let go and not to be in control. Allow nature takes it cause.

Mandala & Me

I discovered Mandala symbols more than a decade ago.
It was something I was searching for to express myself and
to connect to my inner self. From then on, my journey continues.....

I did the first mandala symbol while on a retreat and I came up

with this Star mandala as a symbol of self.
