Happy mahalaya to everyone

Today is happy mahalaya to everyone in every part of the world. It is the day when Durga puja begins. Hindus give holy ganges water and do tarpan for their fathers mothers and relatives who died.

Happy Mahalaya. It's the biggest festival in your state. I am a big devotee of Shiva and Shakti. Navratri is very close to my heart.

thanks Arunimaji happy navratri and let me hope that devipaksh goes very well. I give sacred ganga water and sesame and offer prayer for peace for the departed souls including my father and ancestors on mahalaya.

@sathviksouvik We do the same, it's a Dat for pitru Shraddha, offering tarpan to our departed ancestors..Navratri begins today. Not celebrating the festival in big way this year as we would normally do as my brother in law passed away in August. Just carrying on with regular Pooja and some shlokas for Devi.
