I will add an accurate meanings description of this Mandala. In the corners there are 4 Symbols : Left up - Shell : is the representation of deep knowledge. It feeds spiritual passions and aspirations, awakening from the abyss of ignorance and suffering. Left down - Bilva fruit : This symbol has a double meaning: pure worldly actions and high pure worldly actions. They can also be understood as "Right Action and Wisdom". Right action is the ability to recognize that happiness and suffering arise from healthy and unhealthy causes respectively. Wisdom comes from understanding the interdependence that connects all things. Right up - Mirror : The mirror is one of the "Five attributes of sensory pleasure". Shakyamuni was exhausted from years of extreme asceticism, so a young girl brought him food. He regained his splendor and he achieved the 32 major signs of Buddhahood. A goddess placed the mirror in front of him as a testimony of this splendor. It Symbolizes the Dharmakaya, or Buddha's Body of Truth, and its aspects of purity (a mirror does not get dirty, whatever it reflects) and wisdom (a mirror reflects all phenomena, without distinction). It represents the Right View. Right down - Cymbals : Cymbals are used in Tibetan rituals as a musical instrument. They are one of the "Five attributes of sensory pleasure" and represent a sense of rhythm and lightness that can be achieved through hearing. They represent the state of mental well-being and a pure and clear mind.
