The central deity of the Kalachakra Mandala - Kalachakra - is represented in Thangka art by a symmetrical display of other gods, symbols, and geometric shapes. This artwork is then further enhanced by a luxurious silk brocade surrounding the mandala - an ornamental frame drawing the eye to the piece while further imbuing it with a sense of sophistication and grace.

It functions as an instrument for rituals related to the Kalachakra teachings, such as meditation and contemplation. Through interacting with the thangka, practitioners can gain a greater insight into the Kalachakra theory, strive to embody the qualities displayed in the mandala, and strive for spiritual enlightenment.
