Hello friends

Well come to my blog. I hope you are just doing fine.

Today I have come up with one of India's biggest celebration at the time Diwali. In West Bengal ,a Indian state,we call it Dipabali.In defferent states it has different names though. We also celebrates the worship of Goddess KALI at the same time.This even is celebrated in the month of October every year. The month October is full pact of celebration.Schools and collages are closed.None is there to call you prepare your home work.🥳🥳 Students get relief from burden of their studies.Everyone enjoys the through the month.Apart from education sector, employees of public, private and government sectors got maximum number of leaves at this time. It can go 15 days also.

About Goddess KALI:

The hindu Goddess represents time ,death and doomsday. She does wear a chain of human heads and she is often sculpture while she is dancing on her hasband body.She is potrait in different colour but black and blue are often seen.A portion of her is always unclad.She always keep her toung out of her mouth.The goddes is worshiped through out India specially in West Bengal, Kashmir ,Kerala and south india.

KNOW MORE ABOUT HER

West Bengal, India celebrates the biggest worship of her.West Bengal always has huge Puja pandal and idol of her.There is no compare to the rest of the world. Hundreds and thousands of people maintain a long queue to have a glance of her. Once I had to stand for five longs ours to visit a pandel.😂 People from different part of country come here and enjoy the whole night visiting the puja pandel.

The atmosphere wears colourful ornaments. It includes lightings, stalls of food and wearing and different art work.You can have a glance of it in the above picture.

Here are some of the puja pandels I visited:

This is an Indian temple in the middle of mountains.I don't know the name of the temple.

The theme is a shiva linga. Shiva is the husband of godess kali.She always stands on him in all the idol of her you have seen.
Good regional art can be seen to decorate the roof of the pandel.Most probably it is made of cane.


This pandal has a huge light-bulbs. Every pandel has a one but this one is mention worthy.
This one is a two-storied pandel. Picture is not very good. It is more beautiful beautiful than what the picture shows.

She is unclad. It is a form of her among different assumed form.

Lol theme is stranger things. The enviornment here is very fearful.

All the idols and Puja pandals I have visited took me two days of time. There was a long queue infront of good Puja pandel.I haven't covered many of them but I have seen it online.😄

All the pictures above are taken from my cell phone

I hope you liked Hindu traditional celebration , the idols of godess , different Puja pandals and the lighting around.Thank you do much for visiting.
