THEN GOD SAID, " LET THERE BE LIGHT! "................DIWALI ON A POSTCARD

Here's wishing all my fellow Earthlings A VERY HAPPY DIWALI !

LET THERE BE LIGHT.................AND NOT SMOKE. Have a safe one.

OVER THE MOON..........POSTCARD AND THE GREAT HUNT

Today is karva Chauth, a festival celebrated by Hindu & Sikh women in Northern part of India. A day when married women observe a day long fast for the safety and longevity of their husbands. This tough fast is broken only after catching the first glimpse of the moon.

Come evening and the frantic search begins for the Moon. Despite the fact that all eyes are on the sky, including husbands,children, senior folks in the family, the hunt for the moon isn't as easy as one might think. For some inexplicable reason the star of the day - The Moon, becomes a little naughty and chooses to play hard to spot on this day. But in the end once this brief spell of hide and seek finishes with the darshan ( sighting) of the moon, all the married women heave a sigh of relief or should we say they are simply OVER THE MOON:)

TIES THAT BIND..............POSTCARD AND HOLY THREAD OF LOVE

Today is Raksha bandhan, a day when sisters tie Rakhi on the wrists of their brothers. Rakhi a symbol of sister's love literally means bond of protection. From time immemorial, this holy thread has held an important place in the history of this mighty land. Its power has saved many a lives, brought people of various religions and faiths together.

Brothers and Sisters of the world, it's time again to spread the message of peace and love..................it's time again to celebrate ties that bind, ties that keeps us all together.

PRAISE THE LORD!............TODAY IS RAMA NAVAMI

India is a country of many faiths and religions. There is no other place in this world where so much of diversity can be seen. Hindu's across the world are celebrating Rama Navami - the birth of Lord Rama today. As thousands of devotees throng the temples across this mighty land, it's time to remind ourselves that.......IN THE END THE TRUTH SHALL PREVAIL.............IN THE END THE EVIL SHALL BE TERMINATED BY THE GOOD INSIDE US.

"Do onto others as you would have them do onto you". Let's not forget this gospel.
