Guest guest Posted July 12, 2003 Report Share Posted July 12, 2003 Dear Devotees, Dandavat Pranams All Glories to Srila Prabhupada, All Glories to Mother Ganga In Mayapur today 16-3-03 we celebrated the auspicious occasion of Sri Ganga Puja. As it is tradition, hundreds of devotees in general (with senior Prabhupada's disciples) go to the Ganges in a special procession to bath HDG Srila Prabhupada and to worship Mother Ganga Devi. As well it is a very auspicious occasion that we bring the ashes of devotees and ashes of relatives of devotees to perform the traditional rituals and Mantra chanting for their immersing into the Holy River, the rituals are called Tarpana and Pinda and are performed by expert Brahmanas. In this occasion there were ashes for almost 20 persons. We are sending many pics about this occasion and all you can follow Mayapur festival by visiting http://www.mayapur.info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
