Navraatri sabhi ke liye shubh ho !!!!
You might be an atheist, an agnostic or a strong believer but the fact remains that these religious festivals makes India one in a holy sense and keeps the spirit going.
The means are different but the spirit of celebration is same whether it be the enchanting and alluring Garba folks or it is the “mela” in our local cities. The colors of joy, the hustle bustle all around infuses in you that something we called a feeling of being a “Proud Indian”.
In those daily “Ramlilas” kids shouting “Jai-ho-veer” that in our childhood days we used to pronounce “jayovee” (:-). people watching them from their terrace and telling their kids the Indian tales, there lies some cementing belief that binds us to our roots.
When Ravana’s effigy is turning to ashes the joy in the yells and the shouts is so vivid as if the evil in us has been wrecked down………..
Whatsoever it may be ……the spirit of celebration, the feeling of oneness, a zeal of Proud Indian, temptation of delicious sweets, chirpy perky mood of festivity or whatever………….. but It brings an incarnation of Happiness, joy, elation and a break from our hectic and monotonous schedules………………. aur phir “ek break to banta hai !!!”
WISHING YOU ALL HAPPY NAVRAATRAS !!!!!!
