Hello and greetings to everyone!
Writing after so long cause I got busy and I was preparing for my exams.
Now I'm back again, my exams are over and I'm happy that I finny got time for writing blogs on the platform which is not only connecting people all over the globe but also helping them to grow and make friends.
So basically this place is magical.

Today I'm here to show you all how we welcome our Maharaj/God / Deity, the higher power we believe in at a beautiful location called Boli which is at the top of mountain and covered with evergreen trees.

These are the apple trees in picture as it's an occupation of local so they are everywhere.

To welcome our Maharaj we made garland with the help of needle and thread and added money and flowers to it.

To offer blessings to all Maharaj Ji stayed at this place for an hour and then we started our journey to temple of maharaj at Giltari village.

It was half an hour walk between the deep woods and I also joined them in this lovey walk.
