WOMEN THEOLOGIANS OF THE ECCLESIA OF WOMEN IN ASIA [EWA] WEAR A HINDU MARK IN THE CENTER OF THEIR FOREHEADS

THIS MARK, CALLED THE “TILAK” IS OF RELIGIOUS SIGNIFICANCE TO HINDUS.

IT IS NEVER APPLIED BY MUSLIMS OR CHRISTIANS [ESPECIALLY PROTESTANTS].

MANY CATHOLIC WOMEN HOWEVER COMMONLY FLAUNT A STYLISED “BINDI”.
