This amazing photo captures an astounding moment of human ingenuity, spirit and strength. These people form the foundation of a soon-to-be human tower, known as a “castell” as part of the annual Castells Competition held in the Catalonia region of Spain. This moment in time showcases a very dramatic human mandala.
The 2014 International Business News article that reported on the 25th annual event made it difficult for me to pick out one photo for the MotD. So I opted to show two others…although I highly recommended visiting the article post to view all of the stunning/dramatic…sometimes gruesome…images from the event.

These wonderful photos demonstrate for us the power of human collaboration, will and spirit. Amazing!

My Mission: awakening our Creative Spirit in delightful, inspiring ways
For me, creating mandalas is more than just coloring pretty patterns in a circle. I do it because my spiritual evolution and creativity require it of me. My mandala designs come about within an active meditative state, connected with my higher self, my spiritual guides and nature spirits.
Together, we bring into form, mandala art the allows me to re-connect with my own inner peace and joy, letting me explore and expand my own creative spirit to however far and in whatever direction I want to take it.
As part of my own spiritual journey, I encourage, and hopefully inspire, others to explore their own creativity, to help them re-connect with their own inner peace and joy. As a means to that end, I make all of my mandalas available for people to color. Why should I have all the fun?
