If art is the window to the soul, creating a mandala is indeed the roadmap that can show where you’ve been and where you’re going…

Artist and filmmaker Jonathan Nagel discusses a mandala he created for a recent Mandala Painting Workshop hosted by Angie and Paul, Light Bringer: Birth of Consciousness, in this very special Living 4D conversation. (Follow along with the conversation by checking out Jonathan’s mandala at this link.)
