I wish you all a very happy Vishu!
We, Keralites, celebrated Vishu today, as usual, in a grand manner.
This auspicious day marks the beginning of the new year according to our traditional calendar. 'Kani Kanal' is an important event that takes place early morning in every Hindu household here when an elder person ushers other family members keeping their eyes closed to the pooja room to have darshan of "Kani", where 'Kanikkonna', the golden yellow flower that you see on the GIF image and many other sacred items are placed in an 'Uruli', a shining brass vessel in front of deities symbolically representing prayers and offerings for a prosperous, happy and blessed year ahead!

Thank you, Maria :) I feel happy reading your beautiful comment. In between, somehow I became less enthusiastic in blogging. Now I have resumed it. Merry Christmas and new year wishes in advance!
Hi Rajiv!
I can not understand why you are discouraged from blogging?
