Finely being able to be here in Hindustan in the land of Mehndi and beautiful Rangoli designs has been a real blessing and very enjoyable. I love the 'head shake' of approval thing they have going on! The food is wonderful and healthy as long as you stay cool with the spices and don't eat to much rice! The population here in Rajahmundry A.P. is about 95% Hindi and 5% Muslim. Everywhere you walk and in front of most doorways are beautiful rangoli designs for protection and to ward off evil spirits. Some are done in paint but most are done with chalk daily. On the way back to my flat I sighted this beautiful design and snapped this photo.
These type of designs are used in prenatal henna designs for expectant Moms.
Peace
Aminah
