Many of the most captivating dahlia varieties display patterns reminiscent of mandalas - forms that have long been used in contemplative traditions to focus attention and encourage inner stillness. Simply spending a few moments observing a dahlia can become a gentle practice in presence. The flower asks nothing of us. It offers no instruction. Yet through its form, colour, and symmetry, it quietly invites us to slow down.
