Religious Weekend

The weekend was one big whirlpool of religious activities for us. Every year we have religious prayers at home. Its called "Sathya Narayan Katha" and last Saturday (2nd August) we had it at home.

Now even before we have this Pooja we have to do alot of other stuff as part of preparation.

First is spring cleaning (thoroughly cleaning the house and compound). This is what I call as preparation of the surrounding.

Next is becoming a Vegetarian for the duration. Preparation of self (spiritually)

Third is planning and preparing the menu for the day.

Fourth is confirming with the priest the time and date. (Here its ok if you have a family priest). They do not have problems with dates and timings.

Having the prayers, giving of alms and feeding the poor and needy is one way of finishing the days programme.


For me it was fun coz this is one of the activities that I can partake in with my family. Beautiful day.
