Night of Mahasaptami at Kolkata, 2013

I came back to my flat yesterday late at night and by that time it was around 1 AM. And then it took some time for my eyes to go into the sleeping mode. But in the morning, my eyes got opened automatically with the chants of mantras and prayers coming from all sides of the sky travelling into my ears.. it's a different day.. it feels so divine at the time when everything looks so unnatural, artificial. It... reminds me that even now our heritage, our traditions, some real devotion to Gods are still left, if not to everyone but to some of the people and that is also satisfying to our hearts. I want to see these prayers live. But did not get chance this time so far. Last time I saw the prayers and aarti.  Durga maa's aarti is really something if traditionally it is done in Bengali style, there is nothing comparable to this.. I hope to see it if possible in the evening today if the much publicized Failin, the cyclone does not spoilsport my plans.
