And as every good thing comes to an end, the greatest festival must too. Melancholy hits everyone when Nobomi ends. As Doshomi morning begins, we come together for one last time, embrace Maa with sidhur khela, dance our way through Bishorjon with all of us crying with joy "ASHCHE BOCHOR ABAR HOBE".
We go to sleep knowing that we will be returning to our daily busy chaotic lives tomorrow.

From Temples to Puja Mandaps to Chandi Medha
Growing up in a Cuttack locality has so many fond childhood memories. One of them is the Bengali style Bhoger Khichudi that we (children of the locality) used to feast on during Durga Puja.
Less than quarter of a km from our residence was located the Binapani Club (Estd 1888) at Badhei Sahi where Bengalis gathered together as Buxi Bazar Durga Puja Samity and organised Sarbojanin or Community Durga Puja in Mrinamayee Murti (clay idol) form. The puja is said to have been organised for the first time by Janaki Nath Bose( father of Subash Chandra Bose), then a flourishing lawyer of Cuttack alongwith some of his friends.
A highlight of Ashtami and Navami was the niramish (without use of onion and garlic) khichudi or khichdi. It had the regular rice and moong dal along with a few additions like spices, peas, potatoes and tomatoes.
The delicious bhog was served at lunch time 1- 2 pm to all those who were in the club around that time for free. The unique feature of their bhog was the individual attention that they gave towards each visitor.
The concept of Sarvojanin puja also brought people of the entire locality together, irrespective of their social strata. This community spirit reached its high point, when hundreds of people, both children and grown-ups regardless of their social backgrounds sat cross-legged in rows to have their delicious serving of hot khichdi bhog.
Before Sarvojanin Durga Puja came to be celebrated in Cuttack, it was mainly confined to the temples – Cuttack Chandi Mandir and Gada Chandi Mandir. It was not before 19th century that the millennium city started celebrating the Durga Puja influenced by Bengalis at a time when the entire country had come under British rule.
Till Orissa attained statehood in 1936 it was part of the larger Bengal Presidency. Initially, a burgeoning middle class of Bengalis who had settled in the erstwhile capital city – Cuttack started to observe Durga Puja in Mrinamayee Murti (clay idol) form. Later they gave way to community Pujas that were conceptualised in permanent puja mandaps.
The earliest worshipping of Mrinamayee Murti of Goddess Durga is traced to a thatched house in Binod Bihar-Balu Bazar area during Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s visit to Cuttack in 1512. The idol was consecrated in the presence of the Bengali saint.
The Bengali priest who had accompanied the saint stayed behind and followed it up by full-fledged Durga Puja in 1513 in the thatched house which is now the Binod Bihari temple and the Puja Mandap of Balu Bazar Puja Committee.
In 1890, the business community of Balu Bazar (then the prime business centre in the city) together with residents of the locality took up the responsibility of the Puja and converted it into Sarvojanin Durga puja. Till now the descendants of the Bengali priest (Banerjees) continue to be the main priest of the Puja Mandap. The Goddess here is known as ‘Elder Sister’.
The Goddess at the Chandni Chowk Puja Mandap is known as ‘Younger Sister’. Nobody knows why. In 1817, a Bengali family (Duttas) started puja of Durga in clay idol form in a thatched house at AstaSambhu temple. Subsequently, it received the patronage of the royal family of Darpani and was shifted to the present Puja Mandap.
By end of 19th century, it was turned into Sarbojanin puja by pooling in the support of Dasah Sahis (ten localities). In the 1940s the Darpani royal family handed over the responsibility of Durga Puja to the people of the locality. Due to the royal link the idols of most Puja Mandaps in Cuttack were brought in a procession to the Chandni Chowk Puja Mandap before being taken for immersion to Purighat.
Even to this day the custom is being followed by around 40 of the old puja mandaps. The present number of Puja Mandaps have crossed 150. Of them around 80 observe Durga Puja in Mrinamayee murti form. The rest come up with idols of Mahadev and Hara Parvat.
Durga Puja in Mrinamayee murti form was also started by Late Swaroop Chandra Das, a Bengali Zamindar at his residence in Machua Bazar in as early as 1752. The Das family which continued with the tradition opened it up for the community of the locality two centuries later. The Goddess there is popularly known as Sarpa Durga.
Another Durga Puja in Mrinamayee murti form was started at Janakinath Bhawan, the ancestral house of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose at Oriya Bazar. When Subhas was rusticated following the ‘Oaten incident’ – alleged assault on E A Oaten, professor in history by students- he came to Cuttack in March 1916. In the same year Subhas along with friends of the locality started the Durga Puja.
Subhas returned to Calcutta within less than a year to resume his studies when Calcutta University revoked the rustication order. But his friends continued this tradition under the patronage of Subhas’s father Janaki Nath Bose. The puja was converted into a community celebration by the Oriya Bazar Sarbajanin Durga Puja Samiti when the entire Bose family decided to shift to Calcutta and settle there. Years later the Durga Puja started by Subhas Bose was shifted to the permanent Puja Mandap of Durgabari Samiti at Alamchand Bazar.
In 1832, Oriya and Bengali employees of the East India Company started Durga puja at Kazi Bazar. This is said to be the earliest Sarbojanin Durga puja in the city.
The Choudhury Bazar Panchayat Committee started Durga puja in Mrinamayee Murti form in 1872. Choudhury Bazar - one of the important business centres in Cuttack is said to have been named after one Manjinath Choudhury who constructed a Jain temple in the locality during the Maratha rule.
The mandap became a star attraction for visitors during Durga Puja when it pioneered use of traditional decorative craft associated with silver as base metal for the backdrop to the clay idol. With it came up the first Chandi Medha – silver filigree backdrop by using 250 kg of pure silver in 1955.
The ornamental style had then no parallel in the country as far as silver filigree was concerned. The Choudhury Bazar puja mandap continued to have the lone Chandi Medha in the city till the unique style was picked up by the Puja Mandap at Sheikh Bazar with a 350 kg Chandi Medha for their Goddess in 1991. Another 26 Puja Mandaps have since followed with Chandi Medhas made of 250 kg to 500 kg pure silver.

Managed to post the penultimate episode from the ongoing 'Arrah' chapter on www.littlebylittle.online. Durga Pooja was not as intense a festival as Chhatth Pooja, but it was around for ten days and that meant the festivities and rituals surrounded our everyday routine like a dew drop rolling on a leaf. Our home would smell of dhoop, agarnbatti and postadana halwa. To this day, participating in the aarti feels slightly heavy because of how religiously my father participated in the ceremonies. The thing I really looked forward to was visiting the pandals early in the morning on Dashmi. The handiwork of different craftsmen trying to outdo each other with their effort on stitching the corners of the pandal's cloth or how beautifully rendered the stage backdrop was a marvel for a six-year-old. I have always felt that from the onset of Durga Pooja, the wind took a different turn, slowly opening the doors to the nippy winter, and the festivals would just pour in from that ajar door one by one, leaving you no choice but to be soaked in it.
Read the episode here.

दशहरा / विजयदशमी इस दिन भक्तों द्वारा र���वण के पुतले का दहन किया जाता है | उत्तर भारतीय हिन्दू पंचांग के अनुसार यह पर्व अश्विन माह में शुक्ल पक्ष के दसवें दिन पर मनाया जाता है |
मान्यताओं अनुसार, भगवान राम ने इसी दिन रावण का वध किया था तथा #देवी दुर्गा ने नौ रात्रि एवं दस दिन के युद्ध के उपरान्त #महिषासुर पर विजय प्राप्त की थी । इस पर्व को बुराई पर अच्छाई की जीत का प्रतीक भी माना जाता है, इसीलिये इस पर्व को हम 'विजयदशमी' के नाम से जानते हैं |
आज के दिन लोग शस्त्र-पूजा करते हैं और नया कार्य प्रारम्भ करते हैं (जैसे अक्षर लेखन का आरम्भ, नया उद्योग आरम्भ, बीज बोना आदि) | ऐसा विश्वास है कि इस दिन जो कार्य आरम्भ किया जाता है उसमें सफलता प्राप्त होती है | प्राचीन काल में राजा इस दिन विजय की प्रार्थना कर रण-यात्रा के लिए प्रस्थान करते थे।
दशहरा अथवा विजयदशमी भगवान राम की विजय के रूप में मनाया जाए या #दुर्गा पूजा के रूप में, दोनों ही रूपों में यह शक्ति-पूजा का पर्व है | #दशहरे का उत्सव शक्ति और शक्ति का समन्वय बताने वाला उत्सव है। नवरात्रि के नौ दिन जगदम्बा की उपासना करके शक्तिशाली बना हुआ मनुष्य विजय प्राप्ति के लिए तत्पर रहता है।
भगवान राम के समय से यह दिन विजय प्रस्थान का प्रतीक माना जाता है | भगवान राम ने रावण से युद्ध हेतु इसी दिन प्रस्थान किया था । ऐसी मान्यता है कि अश्विन शुक्ल दशमी को तारा उदय होने के समय 'विजय' नामक मुहूर्त होता है। यह काल सर्वकार्य सिद्धिदायक होता है। इसलिए भी इसे विजयदशमी कहते हैं।
#संपन्नमाया अगरबत्ती की तरफ से आप सभी को विजयदशमी की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं!
