That's a really interesting analogy. I struggle with the idea of working so hard on things that feel pointless and ephemeral, and that's a nice way to think about it.

I'm not sure that's the point of a mandala, but it's definitely an interesting idea to ponder.

The 'point' of mandala is everything is temporary.

Something might last thousand years or a billion, but it's still going to end.
