This image appears to be a scan or photograph of a traditional Asian, possibly Buddhist, mandala accompanied by text, likely in an Asian script. The image is divided into two main panels: On the left panel, there is a circle with several figures arranged in concentric circles. The central figure seems to be seated in a lotus position and is possibly a depiction of the Buddha or a bodhisattva, surrounded by other figures in various poses and sizes, which may represent other deities or important figures in the Buddhist pantheon. Below the circular mandala, there are images of individuals who appear to be engaged in acts of worship or supplication, with one figure raising an offering towards a larger figure seated above them on what looks like a throne or altar. Clouds and possibly other symbols of an ethereal nature are present. On the right panel, there is a square with a Dharma wheel (Dharmachakra) in the center surrounded by a square border containing different symbols in each box. The Dharma wheel is a significant symbol in Buddhism, representing the teaching of the Buddha. Each corner of the square has a symbol that looks like a flame, which may indicate illumination or enlightenment. The symbols in the adjacent boxes might be various auspicious signs or tools related to the practice of Buddhism. The text accompanying these images would most likely be explanatory, providing context and possibly mantras, prayers, or descriptions of the figures and symbols within the mandala. The language of the text is not specified in the image, but it may be in Chinese, Japanese, or another Asian script, often used in Buddhist texts. This kind of artwork is typically used for meditation and as a guide for the practitioner to reach higher states of consciousness and understanding within the Buddhist practice.

This appears to be a traditional Japanese or Buddhist religious manuscript featuring two main diagrams. On the left side, there's a circular mandala-like arrangement showing Buddha figures seated on lotus thrones, surrounded by attendant figures in a flowing, dynamic scene with clouds and waves. On the right side is a more geometric, square mandala design with various Buddhist deities or symbolic figures arranged in medallions around a central wheel or sacred diagram. The artwork is done in a linear drawing style typical of religious manuscripts, with precise black ink lines on what appears to be aged paper. The composition includes Japanese text characters along the edges. This type of religious diagram was likely used for meditation or ritual purposes in Buddhist practice.
