Galungan:
This is the most important holiday symbolizing the victory of Virtue (Dharma) upon Evil (Adharma). The holiday is specialized by the fitting of 'penjor', a tall bamboo pole splendidly decorated with woven young coconut leaves, fruit, cakes and flowers, on the right side of every house entrance. People are attired in their finest clothes and jewels this day.
Kuningan:
This holiday takes place ten days after Galungan, bringing the holiday period to a closing time. On this day, a special ritual ceremony is held for the Ancestral spirits.
2 Timothy 3:16,17 NKJV " All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work."-------------------------------------------------------------------------Every new device comes with an instruction manual. Some people will always read the manual first so that they have some idea of what to do. Others will ignore the manual, and just try and figure it out on their own. Do you know that we all have an instruction manual for life? It's the Bible! [ Romans 15:4] " For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope."----- Everything we need to know about salvation, living a Godly life, and maintaining our faith is in the Bible. The men and women we read about were just like us; They had faults, illness, doubts, and fears to deal with. The Bible is an immovable anchor in the storms of life. No other book has the inspiration, truth, and power of the word of God. [ Hebrews 4:12] " For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit and, of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."---------------- The Bible is the book for everyone. It is revelation, inspiration, and communication of the eternal, living, and powerful God!

I have missed shooting small, sweaty, high-energy gigs like this so, so much. Nowhere near enough of them this year!
The 2019 Holi Pilgrimage with Paramahamsa Vishwananda was an adventure of devotion that took place in the heart of bhakti – Vrindavan and the ashram of the Shree Giridhar Dham. During this pilgrimage, a huge number of devotees from all over the world experienced the joyous festival of colours known as ‘Holi’ and visited many of the sacred sites where Lord Krishna’s leelas took place. The program was filled with prayers, singing, dancing, satsangs and more, making it truly an unforgettable experience.

Durga Puja festival epitomizes the victory of Good over Evil. It is an annual Hindu festival in South Asia that celebrates worship of the Hindu goddess Durga. It's the biggest religious festival of Hindu community and the dates of the celebrations are set according to the traditional Hindu calendar. It refers to all the six days observed as Mahalaya, Shashthi, Maha Saptami, Maha Ashtami, Maha Nabami and Vijayadashami. Durga Puja also includes the worship of Shiva, who is Durga's consort (Durga is an aspect of Goddess Parvati), in addition to Lakshmi, Saraswati with Ganesha and Kartikeya, who are considered to be Durga's children.
Durga Puja commemorates the annual visit of the Goddess with Her children to Her parents' home, leaving finally on the Dashami to be re-united with Shiva. This leaving ceremony is symbolised by the immersion of the sculptures on Dashami.
