Wish you all the happiness!

[@MissHandicraftsUganda]

Seems like every Indian is an artist

[@KethTamilTubing]

The use of rice flour in place of chalk in the traditional Tamil art of kolam is seen as a way of connecting with the natural world. The rice flour serves as a source of nourishment for small creatures like ants and microorganisms, and by creating kolam in the morning, practitioners are offering a small offering to these creatures that play an important role in maintaining healthy and fertile soil for farming

[@veenanarendaran4030]

[@Esprite9]

Wow! Loved this video so much! Those Kolams were so cool! 👌 What foods did you eat during Pongal? For me my favourite pongal memories with Tamil friends in India involved eating the yummy pongal dishes at their homes or the Prasad at local temples. And second favourite memory was to prepare that pongal boiling milk ritual at a temple in Utah with different women from India living in Utah, all communally participating together in a temple prayer ritual.
