Day 21: Maha Shivaratri

It was another happy practice. Mysore is bubbling with the spirit of Mahashivaratri. The colors were extra vibrant. In the market, garlands and bilva leaves were plentiful. We had another lunch at Adil's home and Henna hand painting after.

This was done by Adil's sister.


It was such a special night as Raju took us to temples and we walked the temple streets and palace grounds with bare feet. We were dressed auspiciously in white, taking milk and holy water with our hand.
On the night of Lord Shiva, may we cleanse our deep seated karma debts and may all our good wishes be blessed.
