a special kolam on aadi perukku.As Judy and Lata mam pointed out,i tried to position it a little away from the grass,but the small ditch created by our neighbours car [in the topmost left side seen]was such that i could not manage the space structure!sorry all!next time i would surely plain the area and do symmetrical kolams

Yes, I went to the moon,
returned with bits of lune,
and arranged them soon,
and fell into a swoon

A simple paDi kOlam is displayed here. It has a central lotus with eight petals. You may find Sankha, chakra, gadA and padmA on the sides. The outer border has tulasi. As purandaradAsa says, hari will not accept worship without tulasI.

Here is another set of my kolams...
1. Rajamma's favourite set of kolams. Interlaced/inbetween dots 7 - 4
2. Gowri this one is for you (my all time favourite chikku kolams) Straight dots 11 - 1
3. This is another of my favourites too. Straight dots 9 - 1
4. Last but not least - Kalasa Kolam I put yesterday for Varalakshmi Vridha. It
was a two in one kolam because it is Amman Temple festival week in my area and
yesterday was 108 Paal Kudam (milk pot) day. 108 women will carry a pot of milk
decorated with neem leaves, smeared with saffron on their head from a given point
and come to the temple in a procession with the traditional urumi mela thaalam
(traditional instrument).. Interlaced/inbetween dots (Purni style) 1, 2, 3 then
continued by straignt dots 5, 9, 9, 7, 5, 7, 9, 11, 11, 9, 7, 5 - Purni waiting
to see you copy this one soon
