Guest guest Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Jai MAA! The festival of AMBUBACHI begins this year on Monday, June 22 (Amavasya) and not only the SRI SRI KAMAKHYA TEMPLE is closed for three days for Devi's menstruation, but also all the temples in the Nilachal Hills and in the surrounding areas are closed as it is the Earth Herself that menstruates. There are varying views on why the temple is closed, from Brahminical taboo (this is found in the Devi Bhagavatam, I believe) to honoring the Mother and allowing Her to rest for these three days. The temples open again on June 25th. This festival is wonderful and if you can make it, you should go. The most prized (and rare) prasad is a piece of MAA's red sari that She wears during menstruation. You can read an article on the festival here: http://kamakhyamandir.org/culture-and-history/ambubachi-culture Jai MAA -Sundari Sri Kamakhya Mahavidya Mandir (USA) www.kamakhyamandir.org On Tue, May 19, 2009 at 3:30 AM, Dr. Sandeep menon <sanddymenonwrote: > > > Jai Maa > Dear all the readers I want to know about the very important festival of > Mata being celebrated at KAMAKHYA TEMPLE in the month of Ashada (June).
