Thanks Larry. Regarding the marks on the forehead, most sadhus (holy men) in India make these marks on their foreheads every morning. A lot of them are followers of Lord Shiva (the God of Destruction and also the Master of Yogis) and draw his symbol on their foreheads. The white symbol represents the Trident which is a symbol of Lord Shiva and the red in the centre represents the Third Eye.

Cheers, Vikas.

Beautiful colors in the background, Vikas. Your portraits are always fantastic. What is the significance of the paintings on the forehead? Larry
