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
