The Endless Knot
The interwoven eternity of compassion and wisdom, the breathless path of the Bodhisattva.
🪔 What Is the Endless Knot?
The Endless Knot, or Shrivatsa, is one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols in Buddhist iconography. Formed by one single, interlacing thread with no beginning or end, it embodies the truth of interdependence and the sacred dance between time, karma, and eternal presence. Found in Tibetan temples, thangka paintings, and monastic seals, the Endless Knot is not merely a symbol—it is a map of existence, a mirror of reality where form and emptiness co-arise.
- Interlaced Lines: Cause and effect, unity of wisdom and compassion
- No Beginning or End: Infinite nature of consciousness
- Symmetry: Harmony in duality, elegance in flow
✍️ How to Create or Use It
- Materials: Image of the Endless Knot, candle, incense, water bowl, small mirror
- Place the Endless Knot image at the center of your altar, facing the east.
- Light incense and a candle. Place the mirror beside the image to reflect the symbol’s symmetry.
- Gaze at the knot while holding a bowl of water. Whisper: “I release the illusion of separation.”
- After 8 breaths, pour the water into the earth or offering bowl. The ritual is complete.
