Suggestions for a word that these mandala images evoke, a complementary quote, or some history or other information about the flower itself are most welcome, as are corrections to my flower identification if I've got it wrong. Thanks, - David © 2004, David J. Bookbinder
Shiva Actually this is more "Shiva's Taillight", since it looks like something you'd see on the back of a beautiful motorcyle (and because the marigold is the most popular flower for religious and other ceremonies in India).
