MAHASHIVRATRI- AOL

14th July 2017.

An international color to a Hindu festival Mahasivratri....

# The 'mamopartha-samastha- durodhachayadwara..." ritual...with right - fist - on - left - palm sankalpa.. .

# 70 odd countries mix in a 150000 human mass under the clear sky, doing as told....

# A four hour upward journey transcending all pettiness ...

# Om Namashivaya namsankeetans in an outbreak of global vocal synergy....

# Soul - stirring Vedic chants reverberating in the cool scented spirtual air...

# Is this hysteria, faith or frenzy ? Exemplary Tolerance ?  A Vasudeva kudumbakam in the making ?

# Citizens of all color.. creed.. caste ...shaking a leg..Senior citizens too (I smuggled myself in here)....

Lord Shiva would endorse all this. Can happen only in this enthralling venue. Blessed I was.

Long way to unravel spirituality. But looks like i am on track.

Thanks AoL team. Thanks Shrey and others..

OM NAMASHIVAYA.
