3rd Oct

Completed morning program. Venita spent a good deal of time early morning celebrating Vijayadashmi in the temple. She remembered her father early morning. She said that he used to take all his children out to show Neelkanth, a bird with blue throat, on the day.It is akin to Shiva Darshan. It is believed that Shiva had taken poison that had come out after churning of the Ocean in the beginning of the universe and kept it in his throat. His throat had become blue due to it. He is known as Nilkantha. He did it to protect all against its devastating effect.
