My own encounter with mehndi started in middle school back in Duba


aditionally, Bengali weddings do not have a henna/mehndi ceremony. However, going with the current trend in the West, where over-ritualization has somehow become an intricate part of simulating an Indian wedding outside of India, not having a mehndi ceremony is almost as sacrilegious as a Hindu slaughtering a cow.



My own encounter with mehndi started in middle school back in Dubai, where I was surrounded by muslim girls, many of whom were (or at least, considered themselves to be) mehndi experts. I have had them work their magic on my hands, as well as, those of the other girls in my class. Watching those 12-13 year old girls deftly handle a mehndi cone to produce designs out of pure imagination was an act of sheer wonder.

Henna Artist hard at work

Years later, I am here again, at a family friend’s wedding—at the mehndi ceremony. The henna design artist is a young girl who is a fourth year student at University of Toronto. I hear many sceptical exclaims (in hushed tones around me:,She is the henna ar,tist? So young?” The, disbelief is ripe in their

Mehndi Madness: Indian Wedding


What is it with Indian women and mehndi? Is it the smell (not too bad when its wet, but let it dry, and it really stinks!)? Is it the gooey brown gunk-like texture? The designs that swirl from the plastic mehndi cone, and ,mesmerize those w,ho are watching, on? Or, is it just ,a stereotypica,l wedding madness, that contributes to the mehndi madnes

2010 terms for Mehndi Designs:



Third, if one is unmarried, the I-485 applicant is given the luxury of more time to choose a spouse. That spouse can enjoy dependent benefits and obtain permanent resident status based on being married prior to approval of the I-485. This is a huge benefit to those who were intending marriage, but need more time for one reason or another. There is an enormous benefit to marrying prior to the approval of the I-485, rather than after. If the marriage takes place after the I-485 is approved, the case becomes a family case and the spouse can be stuck abroad waiting for several years.

Note: A spouse is not entitled to obtain the "green card" automatically simply by getting married before the I-485 is approved. A spouse who gets married before the I-485 is approved is allowed to file and obtain the H4 visa from abroad an,d enter the U.S. on, an H4 status as l,ong as the principal, maintains H1B status.

Mehndi Party for the Bride to Be


t strip joint and bar-hopping scene. Before she met her now husband, she spent a year abroad in India, so when it was time for her Bachelorette Party, she knew exactly what she wanted to do.

In Indian traditions, the bride gets together with all her female friends and family right before she gets married and they have a Mehndi Party. She gets adorned with henna tattoos all over her hands and feet, so she looks beautiful on her wedding day. Of course, you may want to plan this party a few months before your big day, unless you want to wear henna with your fancy white dress.

Henna tattoos are all natural but not at all permanent. The henna only stains the outer layer of the skin, so it lasts about 2-4 weeks. The dried leaves of the henna plant are ground into a greenish powder, and then mixed with lemon juice and warm water (and anything else in their family's recipe). The chocolate-colored paste is applied with a cone (kind of like baker's use for decorating cakes) or with a thin stick.

The designs are extremely intricate and take hours to apply. The bride has to sit and wait for the paste to dry and set, so if she needs anything, all her gal pals take care of her. After a few hours, the dried paste is then peeled or brushed off the skin, revealing an orange print. Some people even wait until the next morning before peeling off the design to ensure a darker stain - I even slept with plastic bags on my hands, I like being decorated. Nev,er wash the, dried henna, off with water, since that will ,make the design, fade faster. The color darkens over the next few days, but as the dead skin cells begin to slough off, the henna tattoo, too, begins to fade away.

All,Technically and Legally US is a corporation and federal


All,Technically and Legally US is a corporation and federal-union not a country (union like UK, ussr, future-EU-federal-state etc). Even india is a union. not a country. Your state/ your actual country. All states have their own state-constitution.

Before commenting on the above two points, please take time to watch a great youtube video out there that explains the whole thing based on federal constitution. Search for “citizen 14th amendment” in youtube. When I get home, I will post the link.

Some personal thoughts (not legal technically etc),Your loyalty must be concentrated and focused on the state/UT (technically your country) you live. There was a great question asked to Kalam in his recent Seattle visit and his recent speech in WU campus kane hall. He says more than india, even NRI’s (indian citizens) must have loyalty primarily towards the local place they work and live (I assumed, specific to city/region, state/UT).
* be a proud Californian, Texan Etc (ineffect state citizen first before federal or ancestral, ethnical, etc). In effect not indian-american.
Finally I am a US citizen after being 10+ years in this country. This is one of my biggest fulfillments and it means everything to me. US is just not home anymore for me, it is my country.
I wish ev,eryone th,e best and hope, they get GC very soon.
Proud to be an indian,-american and l,egal immigrant.
