“Ao repetir o mantra e assumir o mudra de qualquer Buda”, escreve o monge e instrutor budista Sangharakshita, “uma pessoa pode não só colocar-se em correspondência ou alinhamento com a ordem particular da realidade que ele personifica, mas também ser infundida com o seu poder transcendente.”<ref>Bhikshu Sangharakshita, A Survey of Budhism (Um Estudo Sobre o Budismo) edição revisada.</ref> | “Ao repetir o mantra e assumir o mudra de qualquer Buda”, escreve o monge e instrutor budista Sangharakshita, “uma pessoa pode não só colocar-se em correspondência ou alinhamento com a ordem particular da realidade que ele personifica, mas também ser infundida com o seu poder transcendente.”<ref>Bhikshu Sangharakshita, A Survey of Budhism (Um Estudo Sobre o Budismo) edição revisada.</ref> | ||

Buddhists often depict the Dhyani Buddhas in a [[mandala]]. ''Mandala'' is a Sanskrit word meaning “circle,” translated in Tibetan texts as “center” or “what surrounds.” Some say the word derives from ''manda'', meaning “essence.” The mandala as a circle denotes wholeness, completeness and the perfection of Buddhahood. The mandala is also a “circle of friends”—a gathering of Buddhas. Traditionally mandalas are painted on ''thangkas'' (scroll paintings framed in silk), drawn with colored sand, represented by heaps of rice, or constructed three-dimensionally, often in cast metal. A Dhyani Buddha is positioned in the center as well as on each of the cardinal points of the mandala. | Buddhists often depict the Dhyani Buddhas in a [[mandala]].
