PONGAL CELEBRATIONS

A huge, beautiful pongal puja was organized on the 14 January at the main temple of Devanampattinam, next to Project Hope headquarters, near Silver Beach. The entire village came together to worship, pray and rejoice. Pujya Swami Chidanand Saraswatiji and the rishikumars from the Parmarth Gurukul led the entire village in aarti and prayer. Every family brought the pongal pot from their homes and we provided a huge feast at the temple after the puja ceremony.

It was a beautiful time of renewal of faith and joy in the lives of those who have lost everything.
