Village Puja

Tiruvannamalai District is indeed a conglomerate of lots of little villages which have retained their customs, traditions and folklore. In the below photographs; villagers from a small colony Northside of Arunachala and just off the girivalam road, celebrate the land and harvest in an all-inconclusive village puja.

As well as celebrating the harvest, the villagers also take the opportunity to dedicate their agricultural implements to the Divine . . .
