Saturday 9:30AM - Sunday 6:00 PM...North Hall

Returning again this year, located in the North Hall, the Natural Mandala by Rex Oxley.

The Natural Mandala is a six-foot square original work of mandala art that is rendered completely with organic material with a multi-facetted range of texture, color and designs inspired by nature. Currently on tour, the Natural Mandala has touched the hearts of many who have sat before it, rekindling their relationship with the natural world, the Higher Self and the Divine within. The mandala form has become an icon for meditation practice, a type of psycho-spiritual "open eye" meditation that develops visual acuity and induces the meditating mind towards introspection.

When you stop to consider the delicate color gradations within a fallen leaf or mathematical wonder of a seedpod structure and you become attuned to the voice of nature. When you listen to the faint echoes of nature's teaching, this fervent call brings you "home" to your sacred space "within" where you will find your deepest connection to Master Creator, God of All That Is.

The Natural Mandala will be exhibited throughout the ULE weekend. It will provide you with a sacred space to visit throughout your day, inviting you to enter the realms of this space, providing you with an opportunity to relax, settle into your own breathe, visually focus upon the grandeur of nature's design and just "to be" with this grand mandala. You are invited to view The Natural Mandala and slip into your own "open-eye" meditation. Ohio artist, Rex Oxley, will be here to speak with you about meditation practice and to provide information to help you begin your own odyssey into the visual realms of mandala meditation. Please visit him and The Natural Mandala in booth #750, located in the north-east corner of the North Hall. For more information, please visit: www.naturalmandala.com
