Everyday A Festival

I offered to write about August festivals for my project newsletter. I discovered that almost everyday is a festival in this month of Shravan !! Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays !

Dasarige Namo Namo

I came to know that today is the 201st birth anniversary of Sri Jagannatha Dasaru. Shraavana shuddha Dwitiya. I found out that one of his son's names was Damodar. That's also my husband's name! One thing I have in common with this great man is that I too belong to Haritas gotra. :-)
Of course that was before I married. Now, I share the same gotra as Sri Vijayadasaru - Bhardwaj !!
