| The
mandala é literally a circle, despite
its being complex and often is restricted
within a square frame. |
| . |
| The
mandala is an image, at the same, time both
synthetic and dynamogenic, representing
and trying to overcome the opposition of
the multiple and that of the single, of
the decomposed and of the integrated, of
the differentiated and the undifferentiated,
of the outer an of the inner, of the diffuse
and of the concentrated, of the apparent
visibility and invisible reality, of the
temporal-space to the non-temporal and extra-spatial. |

C.
G. Jung resorts the image of the mandala
in order to name a symbolic representation
of the psyche, which essence is unknown
to us. He has verified, just as his disciples
did, that such images are used to consolidate
its core or to help deep meditation.

| Contemplation
of a mandala supposedly inspires serenity,
the feeling that life has finally once more
found its sense and order. |
| . |
| The
mandala has double efficacy: to retain psychic
order, in case it was already there; to reestablish,
in case it has disappeared. In this last instance,
it plays a stimulating and creative role. |
