I am trying to find the proper word for the English word
symmetry. I found the word saushThavaM being used for
that purpose. But I feel this word denotes more beauty
than symmetry. I coined a word tAdrUpaM. This is not in
the dictionary. I coined this word based on tAdAtmya
(sameness of nature). The repetition of motifs and figures
forms an integral part of symmetry. tAdrUpa represents
this better than saushThavaM. I'll be grateful for any
suggestions.
With kind regards - mOhana
