I have a friend who often wears a bindi. Some times she takes it off in order to get messages tapped into her head. For those who don't know what bindi wearing is about, see links.
The idea is to double up on the decorative function of the bindi, by making it able to mimic the action of a door knocker, only in miniature.
As well as looking good, this would enable shiatsu messages to be tapped into the forehead of the wearer, through the third eye, which is a very lazy organ and often hard to awaken.-- xenzag, Sep 20 2007 bindi http://en.wikipedia.../Bindi_(decoration) [xenzag, Sep 20 2007] Forehead Bindi Door Knocker http://www.vintageh...mages/zlw-32lhn.jpgwakey wakey [xenzag, Sep 20 2007] bindi http://www.chinadai...151514140182735.jpgwith eyebrow extras [xenzag, Sep 20 2007] Brilliant!-- skinflaps, Sep 20 2007 Guess what [bigsleep] you just invented the digital version.-- xenzag, Sep 20 2007 will there be a vocabulary quiz tomorrow? and what the hey is shiatsu messages!

(By the way: Not saying Hinduism as an entity has spies, but that a person who is a spy might also be Hindi.)-- theleopard, Sep 20 2007 Instead of Hide and Seek they could play Hindu and Sikh.-- xenzag, Sep 20 2007 Crikey!
