There will be ceremonies that visitors can attend throughout the week, and all of the funds raised during the ceremonies will go towards the Tashi Kyil Monastery.

“Have a message, for how we can make peace in this world, how to share some kind of message,” said monk, Yeshi Rabjyal.

The mandala will be available for viewing in the John Wesley Gallery located in the lower level of the Neu Chapel until Thursday when it will be deconstructed. The sand will be ceremonially spread into the Ohio River to spear healing energies throughout the world.
