Puja-Tihar


C: OM!
P: We were invited by our friends Buddha and Bimala to celebrate Tihar with all the youth of Dharmadhatu Foundation. Tihar is a multiple day festival. Each day has its own significance. This particular evening, girls go around the neighborhood dressed up asking for money and candy. Then fireworks extravaganza! Every family creates a small design on the floor for puja (worship).



C: Buddha & Bimala's puja room where P and I made our first prostrations.


C: Far off in the distance you can see fireworks.

C: The city reflects itself as if there was a lake below...
