brahma-sudra

the art of mithila yves vequad

survived the innumerable vissitudes of history. countless recapitulations have resulted in an attitude of mind in which they can produce the most abstract designs without conscious effort. assertion of individuality is extremelyt limited. primarily religious paradoxical impermanence caused survival.recreate whenever lost. learning from one's elders. strong colours association with legend for a particular ceremony a design will take on a sanctity which it loses after the ceremony is over. rhythmic compositions. 3000 years India is not concerned with history in the ordinary linear sense. madhubani-vani..valmiki,kalidasa tantrikas are not concerned about winning converts.
