Lotus Mandala Green/Blue Oil and Wax Melt Heater

The Lotus Mandala aromatherapy oil heater is made of ceramic in a soothing green and blue. The subtle detail with a mandala on the front and a bowl that is deep, allows for a longer diffusing time.  Fill the bowl with water and add a few drops of your favourite essential oil or fill with your favorite scent of wax melt. Light a tea light and enjoy fragrance in the home or office. Ceramic Oil heaters also make excellent incense burners.

Mandala in Sanskrit means lit or circle. It is a spiritual and ritual symbol in Indian religions, representing the universe. In common use, mandala has become a generic term for any diagram, chart or geometric pattern that represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically; a microcosm of the universe.

The lotus symbol represents an array of concepts, depending on the school of thought. In Buddhism it is symbolic of purity of the body, speech and mind. Buddhists see this flower that floats above the muddy waters of attachment and desire to be symbolic of detachment. In Hinduism the lotus represents beauty, creation and awakening. These simple concepts stem from a complex history. In Egyptology, the lotus represents the sun. In Western culture the lotus has become a popular symbol of meditation and spiritual growth that may include many of these historical concepts.
