Yesterday went to this event. Good luck, people were all moved to the Polytechnic Museum. Talked to the organizers, made a positive impression on them and I even gave myself to try something nibut depict sand. It is very difficult.
Hard and flat line can not hold.
Another quote:

Avalokiteshvara - the embodiment of boundless compassion. You can consider him a god or a Buddha, if you so easily ;-)
Mandala - this is his abode. World, the astral level, the palace ... Again, all these different names for the same.
Make it a monks from colored sand. They take a marble crumb, paint, and pour out of tubes. It turns out that's a miracle.
On Sunday, during a special ritual, the mandala will be destroyed - as a symbol that all is born sooner or later die. Therefore, I advise to hurry to see the mandala.
