This piece is based on my painting 'Golden' (acrylic on canvas 59"x59") It is the idea I have fora greeting card, ecard for friends and family. I have incorporated the mantre Om Mani Padme Hum. A beautiful buddhist mantra. It is said that all the teachings of the Buddha are contained in this mantra: Om Mani Padme Hum can not really be translated into a simple phrase or sentence. You may be interested to visit the website Dharma Haven where you can see the mantra in tibetan and learn more about the meaning and other interesting information regarding the mantra.
