  • Primary Category: Temporary Earth Ritual (Sand Pattern)
  • Origin: Zen Buddhist temples of Kyoto and Himalayan mandala sanctuaries

  2. Smoothing the Ground: Flatten the sand bed with slow, reverent palm sweeps
  3. Anchor Stone Placement: Place the central stone or mark the heart spiral
  4. Pattern Invocation: Use a rake to draw waves, circles, and sacred ensō loops β€” matching breath to movement
