Why do Hindu women wear a dot on their forehead?
<|assistant|>
Hindu women wear a dot, or bindi, on their forehead as a symbol of honor, virtue and sacred tradition. It is said to represent the third eye, or the power of wisdom and intuition. They also wear it to ward off evil spirits and attract positive energy. It is often also used to symbolize marriage, as a Hindu woman will typically only put on a bindi once she is wed.
