Maṇḍala (मण्डल) is a Sanskrit word meaning "circle." In the Buddhist and Hindu religious traditions their sacred art often takes a mandala form. The basic form of most Hindu and Buddhist mandalas is a square with four gates containing a circle with a center point. Each gate is in the shape of a T. Mandalas often exhibit radial balance.
These mandalas, concentric diagrams, have spiritual and ritual significance in both Buddhism and Hinduism. The term is of Hindu origin and appears in the Rig Veda as the name of the sections of the work, but is also used in other Indian religions, particularly Buddhism. In the Tibetan branch of Vajrayana Buddhism, mandalas have been developed into sandpainting. They are also a key part of anuttarayoga tantra meditation practices.
In various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching tool, for establishing a sacred space, and as an aid to meditation and trance induction. According to the psychologist David Fontana, its symbolic nature can help one "to access progressively deeper levels of the unconscious, ultimately assisting the meditator to experience a mystical sense of oneness with the ultimate unity from which the cosmos in all its manifold forms arises." The psychoanalyst Carl Jung saw the mandala as "a representation of the unconscious self,"[citation needed] and believed his paintings of mandalas enabled him to identify emotional disorders and work towards wholeness in personality.
I've been watching you awhile
Since you walked into my life
Monday morning, when first I heard you speak to me
I was too shy to let you know
Much too scared to let my feelings show
But you shielded me and that was the beginning
Now at last we can talk
In another way
And though I try, I love you,
Is just so hard to say
If I only could be strong
And say the words I feel
My bleeding heart begins to race
When I turn to see your face
I remember that sweet dream
Which you told to me
I wanted just to be with you
So we could make the dream come true
And you smiled at me and that was the beginning
Now at last we can talk
In another way
And though I try, I love you,
Is just so hard to say
If I only could be strong
And say the words I feel
Tell me what you're thinking of
Tell me if you love me not
I have so much I long to ask you
But now the chance has gone
When your picture fades each day
In my heart the memory stays
Though we rant, you're always smiling
And I will hold it long
Ich will vergessen und verstehen
Doch ich brauche dich dafür
Du bist der Weg für meine Flucht aus dieser Welt
Ich konzentriere mich auf dich
Und deine Stimme klingt in mir
Verschmelze mit meinem Geist
Denn du bist mein Mandala!
Zeige mir meine wahre Welt
Das Tor zu meinem wahren Geist
Komm und gehe mit mir hindurch
Denn du bist mein Mandala!
Der Lebenssinn wird offenbar
Doch ich behalte ihn in mir
Und meine Seele fliegt mit deinem Herz davon
Das Universum löst sich auf
Die Zeit steht für uns still
Vergessen und verstehen...
Du bist mein Mandala!
Hey, man, wake up there's a full moon shining
Hey, man, too long we've been sleeping
What is it we're really feeling?
Oh, I can feel the mandala
Oh, Lord, I can feel the mandala
Oh Lord, I can feel the mandala
Holding you, holding me
Hey, man, I can hear a beautiful thunder
Hey, man, my heart is beating
Letting in the wonder
Oh, I can feel the mandala
Oh, Lord, I can feel the mandala
Oh Lord, I can feel the mandala
Holding you, holding me
Hey, man, wake up there's a full moon shining
Hey, man, too long we've been sleeping
What is it we're really feeling?
Oh, I can feel the mandala
Oh, Lord, I can feel the mandala
Oh Lord, I can feel the mandala
Oh Lord, I can feel the mandala
Oh Lord, I can feel the mandala
Oh Lord, I can feel the mandala
Oh you never give and
your gonna love her breath.
yeah that's my reflection
that your heart will mime,
Took off your satchel,
and shot my only friend.
Without connection, we said goodbye.
oh cut the memory,
make it short and sweet,
oh can't just feel it when you lied two times,
oh thought I could leave her but she caught up with me,
once you feel empty there's nothing to hide.
oh it's alright,
yeah, it's about time,
my lover girl, I told you so,
yeah it's alright,
now it's about time,
my baby girl, I told you so.
oh I say I never fall,
now your gonna learn to fly,
planting the secret, if they only knew,
and cut the hold, I dream goodbye,
the days I died, not ok if I'm alive.
Fit to be free, bitter fool,
got to fit in, nothing left inside,
oh how I love to, how I love to soar,
life goes by swiftly, just don't let it die.
oh it's alright,
yeah, it's about time,
my lover girl, I told you so,
yeah it's alright,
now it's about time,
my baby girl, I told you so.
Operation, Operation,

no you never care.
Operation, Operation,
never without,
baby never get out,
you never care.
Ohhhhhh
Operation, Operation,
never without,

Operation, Operation,

Dance with me for I'll be leaving soon.
Afterbirth on the keypads overwhelm
"Did he who make the lamb make thee?"
Help me find its origin.
In a cartoon house, in a cartoon car.
There are cities buried underneath our cities
"Let the people be free...let the people be free"
It's all around us.
Dance with me for I'll be leaving soon
Afterbirth on the keypads overwhelm
"Did he who make the lamb make thee?"
Help me find its origin.
In a cartoon house, in a cartoon car.
There are cities buried underneath our cities
"Let the people be free...let the people be free"
It's all around us, it's all around...
"Let the people be free...let the people see"
We so obviously had another hand and oh so separated
How do I act like I've made this when I... when I...
When I so obviously had another hand.
Dance with me for I'll be leaving soon
Afterbirth on the keypads overwhelm
"Did he who make the lamb make thee?"
