Dear Children,<br />

GUDI PADWA<br />

Every moment of Gudi Padva day is considered auspicious.<br />

It is believed that on this day, Brahma created the Universe and<br />

the Golden Age of Truth began.<br />

Did you know that the ‘Gudi’ consists of a wooden stick and a steel ‘loti’?<br />

The wooden stick and the loti symbolizes a flag post.<br />

This flag-post in turn symbolizes the Victory of Shree Ram over the Demon <strong>Ki</strong>ng<br />

Ravana, and is erected in homes as a mark of triumph of good over evil.<br />

A bitter-sweet mixture of neem leaves, jaggery and jeera is consumed early in the<br />

morning.<br />

The ladies dress in their traditional, beautiful clothes, purchase golden items, adorn their<br />

homes with orange flowers and jubilantly usher in peace and harmony on this, their new<br />

year day.<br />

With love,<br />

<strong>Dadi</strong> Ma <strong>Nani</strong> Ma
