Dussehra




Today it felt so nice to have my students come celebrate dussehra with me. It creates a special bond between the teacher and the student which goes a long way. All my students came and offered their prayers to king of Dance - the Nataraj. And they performed their favorite steps and items. As for me it gives a big satisfaction. No wonder in south of India after the saraswati puja when they do puja of all the learning medium be it the books, musical instruments, or in the business , their machinery, this custom is believed to be so sacred. And therefore on this auspicious occasion of dussehra they enrol in new school or have a new beginning blessed by Goddess Saraswati.
