Durga Puja, a vibrant Indian festival, is eagerly anticipated with great fervor and excitement. Celebrated over ten days, it marks the victory of Goddess Durga over the demon Mahishasura. Elaborate pandals (temporary structures) are crafted, showcasing artistic themes and intricate decorations. Devotees immerse themselves in prayers, rituals, and cultural performances, while the air reverberates with the beats of dhak drums and chants of religious hymns. The goddess, beautifully adorned, is worshipped with devotion and reverence. This auspicious occasion brings communities together, fostering unity and joy.
Durga Puja 2024, celebrated by Boston Durga Bari, promises to be a magnificent spectacle, blending tradition, spirituality, and cultural splendor. Location for this year: 39 Kilby St, Hingham, MA (Son’s of Italy).
Like previous years, we will celebrate 5 days (according to tithi) in a pandal reliving the (almost) lost art of Mojilpur. Your support and generosity helps us keep the tradition going. Please see important details below:
