The final day of
Omkarananda Mahotsava, starting in the new year, was beautiful and
heart-touching. In front of the nicely decorated Altar of Gurudev,
Puja, Yajna and Bhajan, Kirtan were conducted. The blue water of
the Ganges and the warm sunlight made the atmosphere even more
exciting.
Maa Ganga has witnessed
the highly devoted, pure and divine dances of Kumari Somashekhari
and her students. The dances were dedicated to Paramahamsa
Omkarananda Saraswati to whom we are ever grateful for each and
everything he has provided us.
