Relaxing time

-
Its holiday today....a day, full of relax and comfort... 
Actually it is Dussehra today....a festival of kshatriyas, showing victory of the truth. This festival comes just after the 9-days long 'Navratris' in which we worship maa Durga. So the festive season has started. Shops and streets are adorned with colourful things. After a few days, 'Karwachauth' will come and next is Diwali 😊, my favourite day. Meanwhile, my birthday also falls in this festive season. Actually this whole season is my favourite season. Weather is also very nice as the Winters are starting gradually. 

The other happiness which I want to share is that I have bought my new kindle on my husband's advice and have started using it from today. It is like a library in my hand. I have downloaded some free books and have purchased some others. Feeling nice with my kindle. When I was a kid, Mom used to say that books are our best friends. Right now, I am feeling like I have found a new friend, with whom I can spend my time and can learn new things. 😊

वरकला की यात्रा

नमस्कार 🙏 काफी समय से 'हिंदी' में कोई पोस्ट नहीं लिखी थी, तो सोचा, अब लिखती हूँ.  मैंने अपने पिछले पोस्ट में केरल के ' karkidakam ' महीने के बारे में जानकारी दी थी, जो कर्क राशि के नाम पर है और मॉनसून/ बारिश लेकर आता है। उससे अगला महीना chingam , जो कि सिंह राशि के नाम पर है, केरल वासियों का एक पसंदीदा महीना है क्योंकि यह अपने साथ "ओणम" त्योहार की धूमधाम लेकर आता है.  इस साल, 'ओणम' 5th सितंबर, शुक्रवार को था. मुस्लिम त्योहार मिलाद उन नबी भी उस दिन ही था. मेरे पति नीरज की 4th सितंबर, बृहस्पतिवार को भी ऑफिस की छुट्टी थी, ओणम की. तो हम लोगों ने प्लान किया कि इस वीकेंड हम लोग केरल के एक प्रमुख पर्यटन स्थल  ' वरकला'चलते हैं. वरकला ( Varkala ) केरल का एक खूबसूरत समुद्रतटीय शहर है. तो अपने-अपने offices में ओणम celebration attend करने के बाद ( मेरे ऑफिस में ओणम celebration 2nd September को था. इसमें हमें पारंपरिक क्रीम साड़ी with golden बॉर्डर पहन कर ऑफिस जाना था और एक पारंपरिक नृत्य " Thiruvathira " परफॉर्म करना था..इसके अलावा कई गेम्स थे.....

Thekkady trip

                So far, not only have we seen the beautiful sea beaches (read " my  Varkala  trip ") but also have witnessed the picturesque beauty of the mountains (read "my  Munnar  trip ") of Kerala. So, now we planned to explore the forests of Kerala by visiting Thekkady.          In December end (year 2025), when I asked my husband Neeraj to visit somewhere nearby as my 02 Casual leaves were going to lapse in the year end, he denied for the plan saying that in the quarter end he would be busier than usual. However, he told me to make a plan in the 4th week of January 2026 as there were 3 continous holidays (Saturday, Sunday and Republic day). As I knew that more than exploring the new place, Neeraj would be more interested in exploring the luxuries of the hotel as always, I decided to book "Niraamaya", a famous luxury hotel chain of South India in "Thekkady, Kerala" from January 24-26, 2026. "Nira...

Malayali new year

     Namaskar!       Today (Aug 17) is the first day of Chingam month (Malayali calander month). From today, all the auspicious functions like marriage ceremonies, etc would be started in Kerala which were prohibited in the previous malayali month Karkidakam. Karkidakam, the monsoon month, is considered good for taking ayurvedic healing therepies, massages, reading Ramayana, etc but not for auspicous functions or starting new events.           I had already introduced you all with the 'Malayali calander' and its months, especially Karkidakam and Chingam (Onam month) in my previous post / " Monsoon in   Kerala "  written last year. So, today, when I came across an article, published in 'The Hindu' newspaper (Aug 17, 2026, Kochi edition), I thought of sharing it with you all. You can read it  by clicking on the image. The article is regarding the beginning of Malayali new year, 'Chingam', the first month of Malayal...
