About Crystal salt rangoli : PRINT

There was a seminar [Symposium On Joining of Metals - SOJOM]in my husband's office and I was asked to put Rangoli. Me and my friend together put this Rangoli using coloured crystal salt. Basically it was a dotted kolam. This was done long back, in 1991.

The aSOka flowers are waving in the spring breeze!
The aSOka flowers are waving in the spring breeze!
In kAlidAsA's RtusaMhAram, you will find the following poem: aa mUlatO vidrumarAgatAmraM sapallavaM pushpachayaM dadhAnAH kurvatyaSOkA hRdayaM saSOkaM nirIkshyamANA navayauvanAnAm From top to bottom the trees are resplendant with the copper red flower bunches Alas, the joy-giving aSOkA blooms are filling with sorrow the hearts of the love-lorn young ones The aSOka flower is also one of the five flower-arrows of manmatha. These flowers are coral red. Of course, we all know that sItA spent her time in the aSOkavana as a prisoner of rAvaNa. It is also called vanjula in Sanskrit. In one of jayadEva's ashTapadis (haririha mugdha vadhUnikarE) there is a mention of manjula vanjula! Here are some patterns with an idealised aSOka flower. The spring is around the corner, is it not? Regards! - mOhana
