Clothing is what announces our inner nature to the world around. A special photo-feature on clothing for the spiritually awakened
There is an innate style that the seeker emanates: natural fabric, earthy colours, unstructured fabric, and a non conformist and creative spirit. All of which find happy expression in the cornucopia of ethnic wear, eco-friendly clothing, and energising jewellery available today. The seeker is out of the closet, flashing his malas, kurtas and tees with catchy one-liners. A promising and upcoming line is organic clothing, which does not use any artificially created chemicals. Right from the fertiliser and pesticide used for the crops, to the dyeing and treating, everything is from mother nature, and goes back to her. Kurtas and kurtis help us relate to our roots, our Indian culture, while maintaining ease and comfort. Crystal jewellery, although less known, offers versatile functions from increasing confidence to balancing chakras, and from absorbing negative energy to opening the doors for prosperity. So next time you’re out shopping, we encourage you to buy for the spirit and not the body.
