Inhaltsangabe
The Theory and Practice of the Mandala by Giuseppe Tucci is a profound exploration of the mandala's significance in Hindu and Buddhist traditions in India and Tibet. Tucci, a renowned authority on Eastern philosophies, delves into the spiritual and doctrinal foundations of the mandala, emphasizing its role as a tool for spiritual reintegration and the pursuit of transcendence. In this study, Tucci examines the mandala's symbolism, its use in rituals, and its significance in both religious and psychological contexts. He explains that while "mandala" translates to "circle" in Sanskrit, these intricate designs often take the form of squares or rectangles filled with geometric patterns and images. These figures represent the cosmos and embody the infinite possibilities of the human subconscious. As a powerful symbol, the mandala is used by practitioners to focus their rituals and meditations, harnessing the energies symbolized within its intricate designs. Tucci's work highlights the shared spiritual goals of Hinduism and Buddhism, particularly the desire to move from temporal existence to spiritual eternity and to restore the primeval consciousness to its original wholeness. Each chapter of the book delves into different aspects of the mandala, including its doctrinal basis, its function as a means of spiritual reintegration, its detailed symbolism, and its role in the human body and liturgical practices. This book is not only an essential resource for students of Eastern philosophy and art but also appeals to those interested in the psychological and symbolic aspects of Asian cultures. Tucci's thoughtful analysis provides readers with a deeper understanding of the mandala's role as a spiritual and psychological tool, making it a valuable study for anyone interested in the intersection of spirituality, art, and psychology.
