About this sheet

Beautiful print of the Bhavachakra, the Wheel of Life or Wheel of Becoming, which is a mandala - a complex picture representing the Buddhist view of the universe. To Buddhists, existence is a cycle of life, death, rebirth and suffering that they seek to escape altogether. It is held by a demon.
