This application should be interesting for people who are fond of drawing, and those who, in between work, take a pencil or pen in hand and begin to draw various figures on paper without thinking about their meaning at all.

Simetria will help you to abstract yourself from your daily routine, relax your mind and at the same time do something truly beautiful.

Many people, having tried this application, immediately say something like the following – “Mmm … this is an excellent application for drawing mandalas.” And indeed it is! Let’s be honest, mandala drawing has never been the main idea behind this. Initially, We just wanted to create a utility that allows you to build symmetrical shapes, but during testing it was noticed that this is a truly unique solution for creating mandalas. So why not!

Before moving on to a detailed description of the application, for those who are not yet in the know (as we once did), a little information about what mandalas are:

mandala (emphasis on first syllable; Sanskrit मण्डल, maṇḍala – literally “circle”) is a geometric configuration of symbols. In various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for focusing attention of practitioners and adepts, as a spiritual guidance tool, for establishing a sacred space and as an aid to meditation and trance induction. In the Eastern religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Shintoism it is used as a map representing deities, or specially in the case of Shintoism, paradises, kami or actual shrines.
In New Age, the mandala is a diagram, chart or geometric pattern that represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically; a time-microcosm of the universe, but it originally meant to represent wholeness and a model for the organizational structure of life itself, a cosmic diagram that shows the relation to the infinite and the world that extends beyond and within various minds & bodies…
