On the other hand, the work of art can generate the viewer modified by consciousness, as shown, for example, Rudolf Otto in the work: About the irrational element in the idea of the divine and about his relationship with the rational: "We say about certain buildings or even about a Song, about a formula, about a succession of gestures or sounds, but especially about certain creations of ornamental or decorative arts, about certain symbols, emblems, arabes or lines, that they produce a "magical" impression and we recognize with enough safety the style and characteristics of the magic even in the most different conditions and contexts in which it can occur. " An eloquent example of spiritual practice from the territories of the plastic arts, meant that through its rigor of discipline the spirit and to direct it, it is the construction and use of mandalas, as an instrument "that must support meditation and concentration". Mandatory, as a complex form of Yantrei-geometric device "is an instrument meant to turn the psychic forces, focusing them on a pattern, and so that this pattern becomes reproduced by the power of view of the believer. It is a stimulated machine Internal views, meditations and experiences. The given model may suggest a static vision of the deity to worship, of the present imaginable superhuman, or it can develop a number of views. " The art of mandala, coming from the blacks of history and the collective unconscious, perhaps defines what we can call transpersonal in art. This archetypal art-of the representation of the terrestrial world according to a predetermined, cosmic model of which Jung was fascinated, is meant to snatch the artist from his time and from his profane space and to restore him in his original ontological coordinates, Manda "supports the concentration by the somewhat circular narrowing of the psychic visual field on the center.
Almost regularly the outer edge is of fire, namely the fire of concnpiscenty, of lust, from which the sufferings of hell come. The purpose of the contemplation of the processes represented in Mandala is that the yogin becomes the "interior" of the god, that is: by contemplation itself is recognized and as a god and will return from the illusion of being universal in the universal state. " , by concentrating to the center, leads to the integration of the subject's consciousness into the archetypal consciousness from where it comes from, this merging producing a radical change at a psychic level that is reflected by a dissolution of its own ego in the universal itself. of the movement of the planets around a star, of the gravity of the human beings around a supreme creator. Also the form of the mandala can designate the focus of the mind in a central point, the desire to find the supreme self in the middle of the created universe, "their basic reason is the assumption to a center of personality, of a so-called central place inside the soul, to which everything is connected, by which it is ordered It all and which at the same time represents a source of energy. The energy of the median point is revealed in the impulse and the almost irresistible Сотриisisis of becoming what we are, as any body must take, in any conditions, that form that is essential. "As the work of art mandala is realized as an act ritually that makes it possible to purify and spiritualize the person who creates it and presents itself as a chromatic space and of the composition that denotes harmony, clarity, Form safety , a representation of the sacred that is intended for its internalization and awareness by human consciousness.
Mandala, which translates from Sanskrit, circle, is made in this form and normally contains three concentric circles, colored in blue and black, "which exclude the exterior and maintain the interior". Mandala represents the original informational transfer from Macrocosm to Microcosm, and some of the interprets of the mandala are identifies it with the transpersonal symbolism of an initial spiritual itinerary, "at the end of which the ordinary, imperfect man, subject to the weaknesses and errors of the material world, is released from the multicolored waves of ignorance, becomes an exceptional character, transcends the illusory universe of forms.
