January 2013 - A wave of colours and stripes

Resist dyed in the leheriya technique, the unique Leheriya turbans from Jodhpur, Jaipur, Udaipur and Nathdwara in Rajasthan, are prized by the region’s nobility and business community. They bear the characteristic ‘leher’ or wave in two or more colours. When worn, the diaphanous, overlapping layers create a stunning, rippling interplay of colour and stripe. Some complex designs use eight or nine tints to create an extremely intricate visual undulant. These fine muslin turbans are aptly named, reflecting the desert state’s reverence for water.

 The Pandayas, Cheras, Cholas once sailed on my waves.
People bathed joyously on Chithirai Thirumal day!
They bathe today, but Madurai's fish-eyed Devi knows
How once upon a time I well and truly flowed.

I am a House called India.

I am Change. I am Hope.

I am India. I am one. I am many. In one. I have a hundred dimensions. A thousand textures. A million shades.

I am a house called India. I am quite incomparable in this world. I am not stone. I am not wood. I am not mud, bamboo or grass. I am sunshine.
