Glass beads
Mandalas are a symbol of wholeness. Patterning glass-beaded mandalas in a circle, Krishna illustrates the journey humanity undergoes to become more like God. Individual mandalas are unique; as each vibrant mandala progresses toward the divinity, it becomes more focused. We slough off weaknesses to become our purest selves— to become godly. Divinity is comprised of translucent beads representing purity and oneness of all colors.
"No matter our own individual situations and souls, we are all alike as we journey through life practicing to become more godlike."
