Dans le bouddhisme ésotérique, il est censé révéler le « corps de l'extase parfaite » (sambhogakaya) du bouddha Vairocana, caractérisé par l'éclat et la vacuité. Il est couramment rencontré dans le bouddhisme ésotérique japonais, en particulier l'école Shingon et certaines branches de l'école Tendai. Apposé au mur Est des temples, il représente la matière et les cinq éléments (terre, eau, feu, air, éther), la matrice, le soleil levant, la compassion, le féminin. En même temps le mandala Monde du Diamant est apposé au mur Ouest. (fr)

In other translations, the term Matrix Realm or Matrix Mandala are used. The Womb Realm is a very popular subject for mandalas, and along with the Diamond Realm (vajradhātu) Mandala forms the Mandala of the Two Realms. This mandala, along with the Diamond Realm, form the core of Chinese Tangmi and Japanese Tendai and Shingon Buddhist rituals, including abhisheka "initiation". In this ritual, new initiates are blindfolded and asked to toss a flower upon a mandala. Where the flower lands helps decide which Buddhist figure the student should devote themselves to. In traditional Tangmi and Shingon halls, the Womb Realm Mandala is hung on the east wall, symbolizing the young stage of Mahāvairocana. In this setting, the Diamond Realm Mandala is hung on the west wall symbolizing the final realization of Mahāvairocana. (en)
