    Abstract: Aus Myrtenblättern wird eine Paste angerieben, mit der sich Durga Kumari eine Symbolzeichnung auf ihre linke Handinnenfläche aufträgt. Nach mehrstündiger Trockenzeit entfernt sie die Masse, und die Zeichnung steht rot auf der Hand eingegerbt.
    Abstract: The film shows the sixteen-year-old Durga Kumari decorating her hand with a mehndi painting. Her mother, Bhagvati Devi, prepares the mehndi paste. On a grinding-stone she grinds mehndi leaves, gathered by the girl in the garden near the house, into a fine paste. As tannic acid she adds the juice of a small lemon, to regulate the humidity, small pieces of a dried grass-blade. With the paste Durga Kumari draws a small square in the middle of the inner surface of her left hand. This square, which can be interpreted as a centre of magic power is extended with curved lines and formed into a stylized lotus-flower. Fingers and nails are decorated too with mehndi. Only the nail of the middle finger (in other cases the whole middle finger) is not painted: this finger symbolizes the brother and decorating it would bring harm to the brother. The mehndi is left on the hand for several hours, then the dried paste is removed and the hand is washed. There remains a red painting absorbed into the skin shich will keep for several weeks.

    Abstract: Drei Priester bei ihren morgendlichen Tätigkeiten am Kalitempel: Malen eines Symbolzeichens für den Verkauf, Beten von Mantras mit Gebetsschnüren, täglicher Verehrungsritus vor den Ahnengräbern.
    Abstract: Two brothers, priests of the temple, assisted by the younger brother's son, carrying aout their morning acitivities. The elder brother, seated on a wooden bedsted on the veranda of the temple, is praying his daily mantras. In each hand he holds a chaplet, the right hand hidden in a prayer-bag. The younger brother is seated near the temple entrance on the veranda, painting on hand-made paper a Durga-yantra for sale. His activity represents a modern phenomenon: the secularization of traditional ritual diagrams for commercial purposes, occuring since the beginning of the seventues because of a worldwide market for tantric art. In front of the temple, at the ancestral graves, the younger brother's son is performing, with flowers and water, the daily rite for the ancestors. At the end of the ceremony he walks round the graves from the right to the left, then he returns to the temple.

    Abstract: Mit selbstgefertigter weißer Farbpaste aus Reismehl fertigt Baua Devi eine Bodenzeichnung in Form eines Achtecks im Lotos. Die Ritualzeichnung wird mit roten Farbtupfen belebt und dient als Bodenaltar für Hausriten.
    Abstract: Aripan is the name of ritual floorpaintings at Mithila. The paintings serve as an altar for the performance of domestic rites of the life and calendar cycles. One of the basic motifs of these paintings is the octagon (ashtadal), associated chiefly with the worship of Lakshmi and Narayan. The ground on which the painting will be made is smoothed and cleaned with water and cow-dung. The lines are then traced with the fingers on the base, the material used is a paste of rice-flour and water (pithar). Two intersecting rectangles are drawn first, forming the octagon ashtadal. The square centre of the octagon is the holy space reserved for the divinity depicted therein in figurative outlines. The octagon is extended with curved lines and formed into an expanding lotus-flower. Finally, dots of red colour powder are added to the design. The rite for which the painting has been made will be performed the very same day.
