In Buddhist legend, the 8 Auspicious Symbols represent offerings the gods made to the Buddha after his enlightenment.  It is believed that each of these symbols have powers to bring blessings.  The flaming dorje is also considered an emblem of protection.

The compassion mantra, Om Mani Padme Hum, invokes the powerful benevolent attention and blessings of Chenrezig, the embodiment of compassion.

Surrounding the Lingham you will see a Tibetan mandala design, a geometrical design often used for meditation.  Mandalas are rich with symbolism and sacred meaning.  In fact, the etymology of the word "mandala" suggests not just a circle but a "container of essence."

Bowl rings at a F note when struck with a woolen mallet.  This note resonates with the Heart Chakra, which is the center of real, unconditional affection, spiritual growth, compassion, devotion and love.
