The King Of All Seasons, Came And Went Away with Dhol and Barati....

It was drizzling in the evening time and i was thinking on which type of tea to make today, as i decided on masala chai, a background voice shouted,"ganpati bapa moriya". I went to my bedroom's window and found not only men but kid fully engrossed in making preparations to bid farewell to the lord of all seasons,"Ganesha". 

Though religious  processions are a common sight, but when it comes to the beating of dhols in these processions, i go into seventh heaven of peace. Maybe it is this magic which effects everyone, as i ran down i could see young boys beating the dhols with immense power, continually for twenty minutes at a stretch, people were dancing madly, in spite of the rains, the energy level and the passion of devotion, love and purity was everywhere within every beat of the dhols. Hope i can take you across a bit of that magic through my pictures:-
