The symbol is a tiny detail in a colorfully intricate sand art piece called a "mandala" that 11 monks are creating in the UofA Bookstore.

Tsewang Dorje took a break from working on the mandala and sat behind the information table, dispensing literature to curious onlookers.

The group has been traveling in the United States for six months. It has visited universities and high schools in 18 states so far, sharing its culture and traditions with people across the country. [Read article]
