MOONSTONE (Samsara Chakra – Wheel of Life) 🌙

At the entrance of ancient Sri Lankan temples, the Moonstone tells a powerful story about life, suffering, and spiritual awakening.

From the outer edge to the center, each carving carries deep meaning:

🔥 Flames – Represent human desire and endless craving in the cycle of life.

🐘🐎🐂🦁 Four Animals – Symbolize life’s inevitable fears: birth, illness, aging, and death.

🌿 Entangled Creepers – The complexities and struggles we face in life.

🦢 Swans with Lotus Buds – The ability to recognize good and bad, leading to wisdom.

➖ Blank Band – A state of purity and calmness of mind.

🌸 Blooming Lotus – The ultimate goal: freedom, peace, and enlightenment.

As you step over the Moonstone and enter the shrine, it reminds us of the journey from worldly struggles to inner peace 🙏
