Happy Dussehra :)
Wish you all a very happy Dussehra....
Dussehra/Durga Puja/Navratra
One of the most important Hindu festival celebrated with grand joy and happiness throughout India (mostly in the Eastern part) is Dussehra. This is the celebration of VICTORY of GOOD over EVIL. The 10 day long celebration and worship of Goddess Durga starts from Navratri and ends on Dussehra day, also known as Vijaya Dashami. According to mythology Dussehra symbolizes the triumph of Goddess Durga over Demon Mahisasura and also the triumph of Lord Rama over Demon Ravana. So this festival is to worship the POWER and Victory of Good.
The ritual of burning effigies of Ravana and his brothers, Kumbhakarna and Meghanada, indicates to follow the path of goodness and truth. This is one of the popular event throughout the country on the Dussehra day. Larger than life-size effigies were burnt with the display of fireworks.
This also marks the end of scorching Summer and the welcome of Winter.
This year Dussehra is on 17th October (2010).
PS: Thanks to my student life, I forgot that it's festive season there back home. Now 'm missing India :(

Happy Dussehra
I'm wishing you all after Dussehra.... :(
Due to bad health i need to stay at home during this festive season. Managed to get the blessings of the Goddess on Maha Navami at our Society here in Kousambhi. There was a good gathering of Oriya & Bengali people here. After getting the blessings i really felt better :)
And if I remember I managed to take my camera out after a long time, say about a month.
Jaa Devi Sarvabhuteshu....
Though I was thinking that Delhites don't celebrate this festival that much, but today's news paper is saying that there are 300+ Durga Idols are immersed here in River Yamuna. Quite a fair number I think. And the article was mainly on spreading Pollution with immersing Idols and flowers and things used for the Puja/Worship.
Another thing I missed is the famous Ram Leela at Old Delhi/Delhi 6. Had a special interest to watch Ramleela at Purani Delhi as missed the same chance last year as I was on move, anyways there is always a next time :)
