Mandalas

Nice!
Some of the best sand Mandalas are done by tibetan monks, however, immediately following the creation of the intricate Mandala (can take months) it is destroyed to reaffirm the fleeting nature of life.

Are these the murals made with grains of colored sand?Or am I thinking of something completely different?
Yep coloured sand. Monks do it. They brush it away after. :'(
