Sanskrit, "magic circle." An archetypal
image representing contact with, or a presentiment of, the Self. The basic mandala
is a circle with a square or other fourfold structure superimposed. Mandalas are
found in cultural products of all races. They seem to represent a central integrating
principle which lies at the root of the psyche.*
