Mehr Mandala Rangoli

"Mehr"

مهر

The word “mehr”--here repeated six times in Persian calligraphy--is often used to mean love, but the origin of the word tells us much about its deeper meaning.

The word mehr derives from the ancient Persian Mitra or Mithra, the Indo-Iranian divinity of covenant and oath, all-seeing protector of truth, guardian of cattle and of the waters. Above all Mehr is the sun, mediator between God and humans, and bearer of light. Mehr is the first month of autumn. The word mehr encompasses the meanings love, affection, kindness, friendship, mercy, sympathy, knowledge and prosperity.
