This image features two distinct parts. On the left, there is a detailed mandala consisting of multiple concentric circles, each containing an individual figure in various seated poses typically associated with Buddhist iconography. The central figure of the mandala appears larger and is depicted sitting in the lotus position with hands in a gesture of meditation or teaching. Surrounding this figure are numerous other smaller figures arranged symmetrically within the squares and circles, each sitting in similar meditative poses. On the right side of the image, there is a detailed line drawing of a multi-armed deity seated in a cross-legged position on a layered cushion or lotus, framed by elaborate stylized floral elements. The deity is depicted holding various symbolic objects in its hands. Despite the lack of facial details, the general impression is one of serene, divine composure typical of Eastern religious art.

The image shows two separate but possibly related illustrations on what appears to be aged paper. On the left side, there is a grid containing various circular emblems or drawings, with a larger central figure that seems to be seated in a meditative or yogic position. This figure is surrounded by an array of symbols and smaller figures, also within circles, which are organized into rows and columns. The overall layout suggests a structured representation, which could be symbolic or illustrative of a particular cultural or spiritual concept. On the right side, there is a single illustration of a figure also seated in a meditative posture, with what looks like foliage, flowers, or some sort of ornamentation surrounding them. The figure appears serene, with their hands placed in their lap. This drawing is more detailed around the figure, with less emphasis on the surrounding area. The style of both illustrations suggests a connection to a particular cultural or spiritual artwork, possibly originating from Asia based on the iconography and style of drawing. The exact cultural significance and the meanings of the symbols would require further context to determine.

This appears to be a traditional Buddhist mandala or religious diagram shown in two parts. On the left is a geometric arrangement of circular medallions containing seated Buddha and deity figures in a square grid pattern. Each figure is depicted in a meditative pose within their own circle, with a larger central figure in the middle. On the right side of the image is a single figure drawing of what appears to be Avalokiteshvara (a bodhisattva of compassion) with multiple arms in a peaceful, seated pose on a lotus throne. Both drawings are done in a simple line-art style on what appears to be aged paper or parchment with a beige or cream color. The artwork reflects traditional Tibetan or East Asian Buddhist iconographic styles and likely served as either a teaching tool or meditation aid.
