Brooks Memorial Library: Mandala of Compassion presented by Lama Tenzin Yignyen - Part 2

Part 2: All are invited to come and witness Buddhist Monk Lama Tenzin Yignyen as he creates Avalokiteshvara, the Mandala of Compassion, in the Main Reading Room at Brooks Memorial Library from April 21 – 25. Sand mandalas are made by Tibetan monks as a form of meditation to develop the transcendent values of love and compassion in people’s hearts. Lama Tenzin of Geneva, NY – retired from Hobart and William Smith Colleges where he taught Buddhist studies for decades – is being hosted by The River Gallery School of Art. This week-long event is sponsored by River Gallery School (RGS) in partnership with Brooks Memorial Library. This event is made possible by the Vermont Community Foundation.
