As California State University, Chico students return to campus for the spring 2008 semester, they will be treated to a rare sand mandala being created by a well-known Tibetan scholar and teacher.
The Venerable Lama Losang Samten, founder of the Tibetan Buddhist Center of Philadelphia, will be creating the Kalachakra sand mandala in the ground floor mall of the Bell Memorial Union from Jan. 28 until March 1.
Samten has special permission from His Holiness, The Dalai Lama, to create this intricate, multi-hued mandala, known as The Wheel of Time. He will be working on the mandala from about 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays to Sundays, taking time during the day to discuss the project with interested parties.
