After very long time post man was at our doorsteps and calling out us . Ya it is an invitation for navarathri golu from my relative . As soon as read invitation i planned to go . Navarathri means nine sacred nights which is one most celebrated festive in India . The most interesting thing about it is golu. Golu is arrangements of various gods and scenes dramas exposing their culture . On the seventh day of pooja i got ready for our relation house which is 8 km from my house . When we reached their house around seven ' o clock the pooja was already over . In the entrance of their house , the first room is decorated with lights to mark the festive season and there are seven steel steps which is mounted on wall for support . And the seven steps were covered by silk cloth . The sand idols of various gods beams in the serial lamps . As soon as we entered their house we are offered prasadam and tea . Having snacks i stared at Laksmi , sarswathy , durga , ganapathy , Murgan , perumal idiols which holds prominent posture . It is not only the arrangement for various dolls but it also the place for innovative work . With the help of mud they had made thiruvannamalai temple and also the scenes from famous epic ramayanam . I was very keen in observing the dolls and their arrangements . After my observation we had little discussion about the arrangement . From that i came to know that they are celebrating this golu for 30 years . This golu doesn't simply mean for arranging idols and this is time for all the relations to gather together and we had a wonderful time over there . And the most amazing thing is neighbor came along with their children . An old lady came with her twin grand daughter . They were dressed like and sang a devotional song in their melodious voice which breaks the silence over there . As their voice fades away we started to our house with small gifts packs.
