MANDALA - a universal form of art: SAND PAINTINGS of the Navajo and Tibetan

An illustrative introduction presents the complex sand mandalas of the
Native American Navajo tribe and of the Tibetan Buddhists. The
similarities and differences between the two spiritual practices in
their healing arts using colored sands are very striking.
Visual meditations based on each art form provide a unique
perspective on their very dissimilar cultures, using poetry and
chants of the Navajo Peyote Prayer Songs and of the Ritual
Orchestra and Chants of the Drukpa Kagyu Order.

    The Navajo sand paintings should belong to the world heritage. It is not my intention to offend anyone, but the important significance of the Navajo Sand Paintings is not understood even by the current generation of Navajo. Many of the sand paintings refer to the most dramatic event in human history, the crossing of a ninth planet in our solar system that comes close to planet Earth every few thousand years. During this crossing a disaster is caused on our planet which is mainly characterized by a flood. The cycle of disasters produces a cycle of civilizations. One civilization can develop for a long time to a level even above our current level. Then there are four civilizations that can only exist for a few thousand years. It is precisely this fact, four short and one long civilization, that has been recorded in many variations on sand paintings. The orbit of that planet is also recorded on a sand painting. In the e-book "Ancient Navajo Knowledge" I explain the variations. We must thank the Navajo people for memorizing that information for thousands of years.

    just had chance to know such art form through an article and amazed by such nature form art. What fascinates me is that how ancient wisdom has such profound similarities, so as the Navajo Sand art and the ceremony. The good and bad, the yin and yang, the connection among humans to natures and the universe.

    There is a book titled Navajo and Tibetan Sacred Wisdom: The Circle of the Spirit by Peter Gold that examines the similarities in Tibetan and Navajo sandpaintings. Quotes by my late uncle Dr. Dean C. Jackson are in the book as well. He was a Navajo educator and philosopher.

    I know you don’t want an to offend anyone but the teachings and ceremony belongs to us. Not to be exposed on KZread. For your benefit of what your trying to prove here. This ceremony isn’t something to expose. It has its sacred factor. Decipher it’s meaning, it will literally paralyze you
