गुरूपुरब की आप सभी को बधाई ll
Guru Nanak Ji stated very unambiguously, “Religion lies not in empty words. He who regards all men as equal is religious.”
Wishing for all our followers, & walk participants, that may the light of this wisdom shine on all of us!
#throwback memories
L>R Swipe. #1-4 is Delhi's famous Bangla Sahib Gurudwara, including the fishes inside the waters of the sarovar.
#5-9 is from my last Amritsar Golden Temple visit. The most famous & holiest Sikh shrine, Harmandir Sahib Gurudwara or Golden Temple, at Amritsar shines at any time of the day due to its picture perfect reflections on the sarovar waters! Devotees take a holy dip, golden orbs & domed section on roof of the Durbar Sahib hall of Golden Temple.

So begins the 1st of our new series of *Full Moon Lotus Temple Cultural Baithaks ~ Sukhan-E-Ghalib* an *offline-actual* baithak in the heart of the green belt of South Delhi, backdrop the beautiful icon of Delhi, the *Lotus Temple*, as it stands bathed in the golden dusk of a crisp, November evening.

हज़ारों ख्वाहिशें ऐसी के हर ख्वाहिश पे दम निकले,
बहुत निकले मेरे अरमान लेकिन फिर भी कम निकले...

A full house of #delhiwala participants looking to immerse themselves in the free flowing river of the softer nuances of Urdu and Hindustani poetic emotions of this legendary shaair of Dilli, our favourite Chachaa Ghalib!!

JOIN IN THE FUN!!!

*Swipe Left/Right*
As the sun came out today, on Maha Shashti, millions around the world prepared to welcome the Goddess amidst us for the 5 days of the annual Durga Puja festival, part of the Divine Mother's 10-day autumnal festivities.
Each year we at DBF organise Durga Idol making & cultural events and Durga Puja Pandal visits, yet this year as the pandemic rages, none of the pujas are happening in Delhi barring a few exceptions and most of Dilliwallas are at home doing our small pujas in our own personal ways.
At home even though we have a Durga figurine in the prayer area, yet mom thought why don't we add a new painting to the prayer area and Dad immediately made this in the morning for the ritual worship over next 5 days....
This is our way, what's been your way Dilliwallas to welcome the Goddess!

May the Goddess bless us all with good health, love & peace.

History De-constructed...In Post-Covid Era!!!
We kickoff our walking tour experiences with this bunch of enthusiastic first timers in India who took up jobs in India during the pandemic and finally after long deliberation about safety & risks with us, today we felt it to safe enough to take travelers around to get a taste of our lovely city.

It's been a day of walking around the lesser known alleys(coz they are more interesting & the main mkt areas are crowded too!!) & exploring hidden tales of the 370+ yrs old city of Shahjahanabad...Built on the orders of the 5th Mughal Emperor Shahjahan, a city whose architecture, in addition to aesthetics & town planning including the water channels, gardens and haveli pavilions made it probably the most beautiful city of the 17th century world.

12/7/20 AC(After Covid)
#Sunday #Stories
Post #lockdown as religious places opened up, so did the increase in footfalls as people turned to faith & prayers to tide over the difficult times in #covid19 Era.
Yet when our team member visited the 17th century CE Jumma Masjid for evening prayers ystrdy before #lockdown curfew hours come into force in that area, he was aghast at being so empty. We shared a post here of how the empty mosque was on Eid...but despite physical distancing steps taken by the mosque authorities, it seems ppl are really being careful & not even coming for prayers.
SWIPE LEFT/RIGHT FOR PICS: First time the Hauz (Wazu Water reservoir) inside is minus the water; near empty courtyard which buzzed with children's voices all through the day; marble prayer slabs marked in Red & Green signs to highlight distancing guidelines; people leaving right after their prayers without chit-chatting among themselves! Physical & Social distancing...scary & momentous!

Post #lockdown as ASI opened the doors of #heritagesites across India on Monday, our 2nd dash today morning to another Unesco World Heritage monuments of Dilli, the 13th century CE Victory Minaret, Qutub Minar! Like Humayuns Tomb ystrdy, this was as empty, yours truly being the 2nd visitor... Even during rains in the past, I haven't seen Qutub complex so empty...
As one of our DBFwallas family commented, this experience is "hauntingly beautiful"...
.
#ASI monuments are open #Dilliwallas so go Dilli go and enjoy them in their 'Isolation Glory'!!!
