25th Oct

Completed morning program. In the series of Pujas during Deepawali, Chitragupt is worshiped today. He is the record keeper of our deeds. The children of Kayastha community worship their pen,book,computer and pray to Him to give knowledge and strength to do good deeds. As desired by Venita, I worshiped my computer,pen and one magazine as i did not have a book at hand. It is all e-knowledge these days and computer epitomizes that. There are 6 main days of celebration during Deepawali,namely,Dhanterus,Chhoti Diwali,Badi Diwali, Govardhan,Chitragupta and Bhayya Dwij Pujas. May read more about Chitragupta Puja in Wikipedia or Garud Puran.
 After Chitragupta Puja by me, Venita did Bhayya Dwij Puja praying for the well being of her brothers. She went to Allahabad to meet her youngest brother and his family for Bhaiya Dvij  and to spend a couple of days with them. In the Bhayya Dwij ceremony she did Tilak of her brother wishing him long life.
