Pulling to celebrate.....

Throughout many temples in India, there are always some special celebrations in honor of a particular God or Goddess, which involve elaborate prayers , gatherings of large amount of devotees, distribution of Prasad (blessed foodstuff), and many times , a procession of the deity, in traditional chariots, that celebrate the arts and crafts of the region.

Below is a photograph (by Deepak Amembal Magiceye) , of the chariot of the The Goddess Mookambika from the Mookambika temple in Kollur, Karnataka. On a special day during the year, the Goddess is installed in the chariot with elaborate ceremonies, and taken in a procession through the city, pulled by the devotees, with great pomp, celebration and devotion .
