It all started with an idea...

A short, interactive guide helped them discover their design style and clearly captured what they needed.

Needs

We would like to get a VERY POWERFUL logo.
The logo should look great on the internet, merchandise (T shirts, bags, stickers, etc) paper work.

Our budget is strictly limited because we are now in transformation from a non-profit organization to a fully commercial business.

Company description

Blind Makers:
In our daily lives we are exposed to many things that make us blind; They numb our consciousness and block our development. You can think of:
- norms and values
- Ideals and ideas
- Opinions and beliefs
- Knowledge and 'science'
- Rituals and superstitions
- Sacred cows and golden calves
- Prejudices and conclusions
- Objectives and measures.

Above cases are the result of our reactions to our thoughts about reality.
They have nothing to do with reality itself! These so-called "Blind Makers" hold fast to our thoughts about reality.
Maha Kundalini Tantra ™ is aimed to recognizing in real time our 'blind makers' and exposing this blind makers so you can unmount them yourself by using MAHA KUNDALINI TANTRA™ techniques.

You are quick!! Thank you. Ok, lets start:
1. can you make the circle on the left image a (very thin)snake? His head is pointing to the left (against the clock direction).It can be a "modern"snake..

2. Can you find a way to integrate the bindu symbol in the logo? Maybe above the sharp point of the drop or under the word "TANTRA" ? TRY TO GOOGLE "BINDU SYMBOL"for inspiration or look at those links:

Hello,

Thanks for your feedback. Hereby some versions in black and white. I've incorporated the snake and the eye in the logo in different ways. Given the time, these are some rough sketches of how it could look like. Let me know what you think!

Best,
Maarten

p.s. also after picking a winning design, there is still the opportunity to make changes and fine-tune it.

Hallo Maarten,

It is a last minute call because the wedstrijd is ending tomorrow.
We do see some potential in your design and maybe we can bring it closer to what we want.
Is there a way to communicate directly to make it easier to understand?

1. Colors: version Black on white and version wight on black.

2. Use 7 lines ipv 6.

3.can you integrate an eye in your design?

4. The name: "MAHA KUNDALINI"SHOULD BE VERY VISIBLE!
4. Can you make the central/vertical part to look more as a drop of water and/or as a pijnappel ?

To make it more interesting for you:

The highest aim and source of Tantra is the BINDU. Link to symbols: LINK
The point with no size. It can not become bigger or smaller. It contains everything and nothing at the same time.

It is the port to unity and oneness.

Bindu is a Sanskrit word meaning "point" or "dot".

In metaphysics, Bindu is considered the point at which creation begins and may become unity.
It is also described as "the sacred symbol of the cosmos in its unmanifested state."
Bindu is the point around which the mandala is created, representing the universe.

In Tantra, Bindu (or Bindu visarga—"falling of the drop") is a point at the back of the head where Brahmins grow their tuft of hair.
This point is below the 7th sahasrara chakra and above the 6th ajna chakra, and is represented by a crescent moon with a white drop.
It represents the manifestation of creations such as consciousness.

The Bindu visarga is said to be the source of Bindu fluid, which contains a nectar (amrita) and a poison.
The fluid is released from the Bindu visarga, and can be stored in the lalana chakra and purified in the Vishuddha chakra. When the Vishuddha is inactive the fluid flows to the manipura chakra, where it is consumed (leading to physical decline).

Bindu is often merged with [seed] (or sperm) and ova.
