Bishorjon - Ma Durga

Today, 28th September 2009, we bade farewell to mother Durga, who has graced us with her presence for the last nine days. Lots more can be found about the 'Puja' and its significance and astrological and divine instances on the web. However, today I would like to, in my own small way, acknowledge and encourage the development of the tradition of festivity and happiness that has surrounded this years events! My fellow pictographers were rejoiced to see Dhaka emerging as a meaningful secular-minded city where the Bengali culture ties us together. I only hope and pray that the brotherhood strengthens more and more.

 

On a personal note, these days from Eid ul Fitr to Bijoya has been quiet taxing on me in personal life. The strain was relieved to a large degree thanks to being a part of this festivities, no matter how insignificant. The awesome TTLers!!!

 

I await the next year and the next and further on for Ma Durga to return.
