Manas Mystery Playing Cards

Worldwide Shipping Included
Presented by KINGSTAR
Sold as Mystery Decks

Manas-vijnana, or mind-consciousness, is a fundamental concept in Buddhist philosophy. It perpetuates attachment to a false sense of self through its incessant activity, thereby sustaining the cycle of rebirth and suffering - a cycle mirrored in the histories of civilizations.

This series explores the creation, destruction, and renewal of civilizations, drawing a parallel to the mental cycles described by Yogacara. Across seven unique decks, we delve into motifs such as the worship and deification of nature and the unknown; the rise, decline, and restoration of cultures; and ultimately, the liberation and transcendence of spirits.
