Makar Sankranti marks the sun's transition into the zodiac sign of Capricorn, symbolising the end of winter solstice and the beginning of longer days. Why do we celebrate Makar Sankranti? Makar Sankranti is celebrated to honour the sun god, Surya, and is associated with the harvest season.
#tbt ‘Throwback Thursday’ to 2 decades ago… it was an honour to meet former president ‘Shri APJ Abdul Kalam’ Saab in person at his residence in Rashtrapati bhawan, New Delhi. Fond memories of this man when he wished to watch my sister and me perform Bharatanatyam for him and his guests later that year. A true honour to be able to perform a full Bharatnatyam recital for him… My another memorable life changing experience with him when he blessed me for a bright future and signed his autobiography for me! He is always in our hearts!
✨Received blessings from Goddess Parvati herself in this ancient 🛕 in the #Himalayas. Maa #Baglamukhi is worshipped for power, victory, protection for cuts, scars, operations and accidents and dominance over enemies. The devotees, who worship #Goddess Baglamukhi, never face the negativity problem in their life. People, who are suffering from the evil eye, secret enemy, fear, illness and black magic, can get rid of these negative effects by worshipping Goddess Baglamukhi. मां बगलामुखी का हिंदू पौराणिक कथाओं में दस महाविद्याओं में आठवां स्थान है। मां की उत्पत्ति ब्रह्मा की आराधना करने के बाद हुई थी। ऐसी मान्यता है कि सृष्टि के रचयिता ब्रह्मा का ग्रंथ एक राक्षस ने चुरा लिया और पाताल में छिप गया। उसे वरदान प्राप्�� था कि पानी में मानव और देवता उसे नहीं मार सकते। ऐसे में ब्रह्मा ने मां भगवती का जाप किया। इससे बगलामुखी की उत्पत्ति हुई। मां ने बगुला का रूप धारण कर उस राक्षस का वध किया और बह्मा को उनका ग्रंथ लौटाया।
