Happy Navratri

[latent-thoughts]

She's here...

Adi Shakti, Durga, Devi... mother, protector, destroyer of all evil!

Today marks the beginning of the nine holy nights of Goddess Durga (Shakti herself), wherein her nine different avatars are worshipped and honoured.

Wishing all my fellow Hindus a very blessed and happy Navratri. ❤️❤️❤️

“I shall have the celebrated name of Durgadevi and again, assuming a terrible form on the mountain Himalaya, I shall destroy the raksasas for the protection of the munis. Then all the munis, bowing their bodies reverently, shall praise me, and thereby I shall have the celebrated name of Bhimadevi.”

—Maa Durga 🔱🙏

Durga Pujo, 2023 !

[zindagi-se-darte-ho]

you know that? i am so excited about october and pujo. i am excited to go pujo shopping, i can't wait to lie in bed at 5 in the morning listening to mahalaya, i am excited to watch my neighbourhood light up in strings of yellow lights, i am excited to go pandal hopping with friends and family, i am so eager to eat all the hearty bengali meals on all the five days, i am excited to wear sarees and jhumkas, i am excited for nabami night outs, i am excited for dhunuchi naach and even for bishorjon. though bishorjon will bring me all the melancholy, yet i am so excited. i can barely contain my excitement.

Mahalaya is so wild because you'd think waking up at 4am is some religious ritual, but no, it's entirely social. Some ninety years ago everyone just collectively decided that it's Absolutely Necessary to wake up at the ungodly hour of 4am every Mahalaya to. listen to a radio program. We Have to listen to it every year otherwise the economy will be in shambles

May the advent of DEVI MAA bring strength swirling in winds, grace following the pious feet of Maa, love in the gentle embrace of Her eyes, and happiness in the form of Dhunuchi filling the environment!

Do y’all realise how “boba tunnel” by anupam roy traces the emotions of “doshomi”? The city dances with madness on bhashan geet while you sit by the bank of a silent river, with your person. The city lights drowning into the ghat just like your love for him but he doesn’t feel the same. He never did. And you softly stare at him as he admires the last lightning of the greatest ever festival of the city. He has always been your best friend, and you realise that he’ll just be the boy you tell your kids about. And the only thing that lingers is “আমি তোমার কথা বলবো কাকে?”

Hail to the Goddess who brings Joy, Victory, prosperity, the saviour of all that is virtuous, the destroyer of all that is evil. We welcome you, Mother, to this mortal home of yours yet another year, with rejoice, love, respect, and hope in our hearts.

Maa, please bless us with your grace, bless us with joy, bless us with justice, bless us so we all can get along peacefully, bless us with prosperity. May your blessings forever remain with us.

It’s Mahalaya,

Our Mother’s journey to Earth begins.
