The mandala is a map for
spiritual transformation.

Each person's life is like a mandala -
a vast, limitless circle. We stand in the
center of our own circle, and
everything we see, hear, and think
forms the mandala of our life."
- Pema Chodron
I absolutely love it! I am taking it all in and will be processing and admiring it for years to come and throughout the rest of my life. I have to read all of the information in the blessing note again and again. There's so much to absorb. Thank you for the helpful tips and suggestions. You captured my essence in such a magnificent way, Ruthie! It inspires me greatly to pursue my dreams and passion and to be soft with myself in the adventure. Your work is exquisite, captivating, and absolutely gorgeous! The colors are amazing. I'm so grateful for this gift of yours.

Dear Ruth,
I received the mandala today. Great timing! I leave for London tonight and will give this to my daughter tomorrow. It's beautiful, and so well thought out--it is a lovely thing for our family to have.Thank you, Ruth!

Whenever I look at my mandala painting, the image uplifts me. It captures the joy I feel around nature and the way I relate to and love the world in the deepest depths of my heart. It brings me joy and it reminds me of who I am if I am ever down in the dumps. It is on my work desk and I look at it daily.
Thank you, Ruth!
