Kalachakra Mandala means 'Wheel of Time' and is the name of one of the Buddhist deities which represent particular aspects of the Enlightened Mind. It forms a part of a system of teachings and practice conferred by the Buddha to his disciples. Practitioners use the Mandala to visualize in meditation the steps along the Path to Enlightenment. It helps to bring peace and physical balance. The Kalachakra Mandala symbolizes the entire universe in terms of planets and time cycles, as well as aspects of our body.

Kalachakra Mandala has at its center Mount Meru with the four corner of the world around it. On a flat plane, only the projection of this can be seen. The four corners are rendered as four gates that are each colors differently. Each cardinal direction is indicated by a color. The elements of earth, water, fire, air and ether that are symbolized by the structural portions of sturs opa and that are thus also and that is thus also present in Mount Meru, are indicated in the mandala by the various squares. Through the entrance gates, the believer gets inside the Mandala. Guardian deities in chariots protect the gates. The basis of the painted mandala is always formed by two crossed vajras. Only the points of the vajras can be seen.
