Dehradun Trip For Navratri

We reached Dehradun on Saturday afternoon after driving down from Gurgaon to celebrate Dusshera weekend at our Dehradun home.

Navratri holds special significance in every Hindu household. You can read more about this festival here and here .

This year, my dadee fasted on all the 9 days of Navratri and sowed jau seeds. She broke her 9 day fast on the penultimate (ninth) day of 10 day festival after cutting hariyali (sacred grass grown over 9 days from barley seeds) and performing Kanya Puja followed by distribution of prasad. It seems that three of us were waiting for it...see..... In this picture you can see me and my sister wearing hariyali... Later in the evening, we all went to attend Mini bua's marriage (you have already seen us dancing here ). Now, here is a picture of me, my Rudra bhai and Honey didi clicked prior to leaving for the marriage venue- dressed up for the occasion...see
