A large representation of the Wheel of Life (Bravachakra) has just been painted and installed in the Holy Vajrasana Temple and Retreat Center in Sanger, Califronia. This image is a symbolic representation of samsara or cyclic existence, dating to the time of Shakyamuni Buddha.

Painting was mounted on wooden frame in Community Room.

More information on this painting can be found in the pilgrimage section of this website as this is now one of many wonderful sites to see when you visit the temple. When the artist and his friend arrived with the painting and prepared to install it, they, of course, paid their respects to the Holy Vajra Poles. All five of the Holy Vajra Poles responded by immediately shaking to greet them.
