Tao te Ching “Sage” Mandala Tote Bag

This mandala is part a series I’m doing in which I meditate on a chapter of the Tao te Ching and then create a mandala as a reflection of it. This mandala is entitled, “Sage” in reflection of Chapter 3. As I worked on this, several themes came up for me: my impact on the world around me, how I’m part of the society in which I grew up, and as I get older, the more wisdom I acquire. This mandala also contains intentions of peace, patience, non-judgment, and social justice.
