Samsara Map

Audio (note: does not reflect depicted as different illustrations referenced): Alan Watts, from series “On Eastern Wisdom and Modern Life” episode “On Death,” discusses a slightly different Thanka, one depicting five realms. Wherein he begins and progresses through sections herein mapped as: C3, C1 & C2 (combined), C4, C6, C5.
Depicted mapping is of a Six Realm Thanka and part of a broader study. Any errors are solely my own. This is a personal study, shared that it may help others in their practice of compassion.
Backing: “Compassion: om mani padme hum” from Tibetan Mantras for Turbulent Time by Deva Permal & Gyuto Monks of Tibet
