24th Annual Chariot festival of Sri Mayurapathy Paththirakaali temple is held today (6th of August 2011) in Colombo amidst heavy downpour. Five wooden carved chariots parade through the streets of Bambalapitty (Colombo 04) and Wellawatte (Colombo 06).

 

Devotees dressed elegantly and took part in religious rituals such as carrying clay pots of camphor, rolling themselves on the ground, smashing coconuts and hanging on hooks (Kaavadi ~ Men only). Few devotees who fulfill their vows, got into trance and danced on the streets. Devotional songs played throughout the dazzling parade. Traditional and non ~ traditional musical instruments added colour to the festival

In deep state of devotion at Vrindavan Lord Krishna Dham in UP, India

“Always I bless you,

I pray for your problems,

for your pains,

through the atyatmic way

(belonging to the ATMAN).

... I support you,

invisibly I support you.

If you don’t get to talk (with Swamiji) physically,

don’t get time (with Swamiji) physically,

don’t bother – you sit and close your eyes,

you call me in your mind,

your heart,

in front of you,

it is also not necessary to have a photo,

you can call me right here.

Definitely, Sadguru will help you.”

--Sri Swamiji

Cropped this close, these two could almost pass as a couple. I get a sense of love from them.

 

And it is love, in a way, just not the romantic variety. This is the Fisher angel, standing protectively behind a maiden, whether she is a mourner or the dearly departed, guiding her on the last step of her journey.

A riot of colours and people all united by devotion to the Lord in his Chariot.

Acrylic painting depicting an alien Madonna & Child. The baby is wearing a crown of leaves and rhinestones. This mother has a pyramid in her jewelry reflecting she has been here since the days of the Egyptian Empire. The flower background represents nature and our connection to it. The grey in her hair symbolizes her old soul which has lived through l00's of lifetimes.

Saraswati, the goddess of knowledge and arts, represents the free flow of wisdom and consciousness. She is the mother of the Vedas, and chants to her, called the 'Saraswati Vandana' often begin and end Vedic lessons.

Saraswati's birthday - Vasant Panchami - is a Hindu festival celebrated every year on the 5th day of the bright fortnight of the lunar month of Magha. Hindus celebrate this festival with great fervor in temples, homes and educational institutes alike.
