Soul Mandala Painting is the silent meditation process, through the technic of mandala painting, it’s the perfect time to allow us to be relaxing & centering ourselves at the center space. From the practice, we can learn the self alert & awareness, meanwhile it also enhance us to develop our creativity of our own, lots of times we are stocked by our belief systems or thoughts & be at the moment is the key.
Painting the Soul Mandala paints is also the way to paint our inner self images, the energy starting from center of our heart & allow the energy to indicate us to touch deeper of our heart & true self.
The origin of Mandala is from Tibetan monks, through the process of creation, we are relaxed & the technics all surrounded from the center point & forming as the circle, further extending outside as the repeated pattern. In the beginning, we will set up the geometric pattern, then the teacher will instruct us to transform into any element of the paints
Creativity is the essence can pass through the space & emptiness, which allow you to touch yourself. When you are truly open yourself to the present moment & silent to the status, also calm our mind & open up the possibility through the stillness. Soul Mandala is with the special painting skills, which is leading you to the aspects & areas which can contain all the various shapes, colors from the human being, it also can reflect ourselves at the true nature. Each one of us is the channel of creation, though we have learned lots of restriction or regulations since we were young & we have the thoughts that we don’t have enough talent or leave the art works to the talented people, yet Soul Mandala is the perfect skill & channel which can allow us to deeply touch all of those & pass beyond our boundary. Through the skills, the expression of art is rapidly fluently flowing & it will turn out to the formality which we can never imagine of, unless we truly believe & trust that we own these amazing talent.

(Osho) When you are in state of emptiness, the creativity arising up, it’s because of the presence of your divine self & the sense from creator. The creativity belongs to the creator not belong to you, no one in the world with the ability of creation. Yes, indeed, human being can compose, construct, but he never can be the creator. When the human being disappear, he is not at his total presence, another new kind of presence becoming his presence, the presence of divinity is how the creation coming from
Instructor : Italian teacher – Shanti Udgiti
I come from Italy, majored in philosophy & anthropology in the University of Florence, in the past, I was working in Mexico as the anthropologist & studying the Indian people from south of Maya at Tarahumara. At the same time, I was also searching for the true myself also the various life styles.
My name Shanti Udgiti (Song of Peace), starting from on year 1984, when I was the disciple of Osho, he gave me this name. In community of Oregon, I was with my teacher & luckily I was working & living there, later on I followed & moved to Puna of India with my teacher & stayed there over many years, during the period of time, I have received lots of gifts over there. The presence of Osho & involving the community life there, which I deeply in love & absorbed all of the love & beauty in the beloved country.
Later on when I moved back to Italy, I started to share what I have learned & led the meditation group, Osho Reiki & Soul Mandala Painting. Mandala Painting is what I have encountered when I was travelling in India & starting from Tibetan, one of the ancient skill of meditation, I always have great passion for Mandala Painting, she is like my good friend waiting for me home & allow myself to reconnect, relax, back to the center point of myself. Through these years of my constantly teaching Soul Mandala Painting, I have developed my own personal style of Mandala & through the style of study in workshops, learning the technics of style, pattern, coloration, painting skills, such as water color, gouache paint, pencil drawing, poster paint, I ended up expanded my own creativity, beyond the geometry & far beyond the original basic Mandala basic patterns
When I was painting, I will follow the skill from Tibetan not to involve of our brand & mind, just allow the energy to flow out authentically & naturally, in fact, when I was deeply longing for some special moment or material to show up, my mind is always in the experience of tense, yet when I realized that kind of tense & decide to let it go, also let go of my own expectation, then I ask myself – what I truly want? The answer is always obvious, I want to be touched & relaxed, staying in the space of mindlessness, over there, the energy is flowing freely.
