Silence : lost in the tranquillity after a Dussehra celebration.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: As per the epics in Hinduism, the demon King Mahishan emerged as an unbeatable power against the celestial Gods. As the celestial Gods pleaded to the Goddess Kali, on the day of Vijayadasami, Goddess Kali decided to kill the demon King Mahishan and this is being celebrated on the sea shore in Kulasai. Those who are in the form of Goddes Kali become so furious and dance vehemently to the tune of the musical instruments around.

At last, everyone takes a holy dip in the sea, followed by the elaborate rituals and poojas, anointing with milk and other sacred materials, the entire sequence of celebrations comes to an end with the vibe spread around lasting in our memory forever. Later on, those who were in different attires, return back to normalcy and head off to their places leaving behind the sea shore and the most favorite Mutharamman temple with a hope to come again for the next Dussehra.

Since the ancient times, the temple and the ocean have been witnessing lakhs of devotees who keep the traditions and culture of Tamil Nadu intact, an unique treasure which you can never experience in any part of the world. Tamil Nadu enchants you always with its ethnic traditions, culture, heritage, happenings and spirituality! Plan a tour to Kulasai this Navratri, to get an experience of life time !
