Rangoli: paDi kOlam a la bElUru
Created by jkmrao on 2009-03-28,

After learning from Mrs Rajamma about the inter-relationship between temples
and paDi kOlams (Did you see my comment and the Borobodur picture?), I ventured
upon this. I call this the bElUru paDi kOlam as this takes a leaf out of the
Hoyasala temple architecture. The outer red square is the outer prAkAram.
Instead of having another square structure for walls on which carvings can be
made, the Hoyasala sculptors had this idea. They took squares and rotated them
by a certain angle repeatedly to get more surface area on which you can carve
more motifs. I rotated the squares by 22.5 degrees with a common centre. Why
22.5, because 22.5 X 4 = 90. Then I represented two circles inside to represent
the God and his consort. Together, they form infinity signifying the infiniteness
of the almighty. Before them I placed two octagons representing the place
where the devotees can sing and dance. Your comments for improvement are most
welcome. Regards! - mOhana

Rangoli: Vasthu Mural
Created by viji_j86 on 2009-03-28,

I don't know why this is called Vasthu mural.
May be because of the swastik, om, kalasam and lakshmi padams are present here.
What ever the name may be I found very interested in doing this mural. This is a wall hanger.
Used with M.Seal
