The power and beauty of the environment create a support for spiritual endeavors. Inner spiritual realities are reflected in the colors, shapes and forms of the outer natural world. This relationship is as a mandala, an aesthetic and symbolic arrangement of elements around a central point. [...] The world of nature speaks to the human heart directly: sustained, nourished and supported by beauty, the heart begins to open like the petals of a flower unfolding. The flower of the heart is the center of the mandala. When the heart opens, we begin to realize the unity of existence and our communion with nature -Tarthang Tulku, Mandala Gardens
