Dear Friend, In all the Hindu Temples the outside wall is been painted with Red and White colors only. Many people don't know the thought behind it. Read the attached pdf to explore on it. Regards Nandi Group.

May be True.

But my version is based on the Upanishads which I stand corrected if wrong:

1.red is the colour of agni

2.white stands for " aapaha " or water

3.Black is Prithvi and in all the temples the base has to be " Prithvi "

the other two elements like Aakasa and Vayu are invisible and hence

we always paint the abode of Brahman with white & red with base as Prithvi

(Elaborate discussion on this in Chandyogya Upanishads..the sun and

moon even conisists of only these basic colours)

with repect to all
