I had great fun too, almost doing nothing but being back here in Kolkata again to just get pampered silly by my doting parents, and bro (he had dropped by and this time w/o wifey.... heeeheee) <br />DurgaPujo means different things to different people, but personally speaking, it is the best time to be in Kolkata, especially now that I am out of my favorite city for work purposes. The wholesome Bangali concept of Goddess Durga's homecoming rings true for most of us.... more than the celebration of the sacred feminine, or rejoicing amidst lot of pomp and show, and regaling in the feisty traditions handed down generations, since ages. Long live Kolkata's annual feast of colors-flavors-spirits-whatsoever....!!! It may evolve in a thousand different ways, yet it is here to stay.... Happy Pujo! Happy festive madness!Sharmeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762205137119048162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36989715.post-45554935746698571342010-10-16T06:27:11.090-07:002010-10-16T06:27:11.090-07:00Whenever I am in Kolkata, I enjoy the Pujas to the...Whenever I am in Kolkata, I enjoy the Pujas to the fullest...... the night-long pandal-hopping, attending the soirees, eating out with friends and family members, and simply basking in the madness that is the other name for this annual Bengali festival, the mother of all festivals in Kolkata! I am not much into the religious rituals, as that's how I have grown up, not having to adhere to the socio-religious customs, but the Pujas in Kolkata mean so much more than the actual <i>puja</i> (worshipping the Mother Goddess) and the offering of the prayers, breaking the all-morning fast. For a section of the Kolkatans, it's juts the feasting..... feasting on the sights and the sounds and the colors and the smells; to sum it up - it's the time for collective rejoicing. <br />Festive Greetings to you too!:)Deephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117325166575854615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36989715.post-16114484663788512572010-10-13T05:04:14.913-07:002010-10-13T05:04:14.913-07:00SHUBHO SARADIYA!SHUBHO SARADIYA!Anirban Halderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15210502797271658022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36989715.post-50790769948520242882010-10-13T03:58:20.855-07:002010-10-13T03:58:20.855-07:00Wishing you a very happy Pujo, and a joyous Diwali...Wishing you a very happy Pujo, and a joyous Diwali - in advance - too!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09179681389332642207noreply@blogger.com
