Weekly Mandala: Deeper and The Peacock Diamond

These two were created from the same source material.

On top we have a tunnel entrance to the underworld guarded by four angry armored heads.  Or are those four bearded gurus with strange headdresses.  Regardless, the tunnel goes all the way down.

On the bottom we have an otherworldly diamond, but not without its own level of trepidation with the four masked figures lurking behind the central cross shape.  Perhaps this is merely an illusion and the top mandala is the truth revealed when the deception falls away.
