In India or else where Hindus wear the red dots called 'tilak'.The Tilaka is normally a vermilion mark applied on the forehead. This mark has a religious significance and is a visible sign of a person as belonging to the Hindu religion. The Tilaka is of more than one colour although normally it is vermilion. It also does not have any standard shape and form and is applied differently by members of different Hindu sects and sub-sects.

=================================

The tilak improves concentration also. It is present at Brahma sthaan of forehead which helps in spiritual maturity
