Back from India after 3.5 weeks of vacation. Family, friends, relatives, Temples, Couple of family functions, Parent’s Doctor Visits, can’t believe , so much of travel .. Hmm let me take a breath.. |
We went to India for Vel’s Chitti Chittpa's & my Parent’s Shastiapthapoorthi. |
I need to say something about Shastiapthapoorthi here. |
We are living, enjoying this lovely world only because of parents. Our Name, Happiness, Education, Health, House, Job, Kids everything belongs to our Parents. It is a very long & hard way raising us to a good position. Lots of difficulties, struggles, hard times ... But still they did their best part to full extent. Now Appa is 60. Attaining age 60 in human life is a wonderful blessing and it is really special to celebrate as a grand occasion. Kids and Grandkids will get the chance of seeing their marriage. It is one of the greatest opportunities for the kids to show their gratitude for parents. Really I am so pleased to Thank my In-Laws, Banu Chitti, Chittappa, my DH, Jayanthi, Geetha Athai, Amul Athai, Andal Athai Kavitha akka, Parvathi mammi, Dr. Mamma, Kasthuri maammi, Gandhi Mammi, and dear relatives & dear friend .for their support in arranging such a gr8 event. Also Guna Athaan came all the way from B'lore with his whole family. I am mentally Thanking God for giving me the chance to do this blessed celebration. I am sharing few Glimpses of the event..                                   |

ReplyDeleteReally a blessing to do this for our parents.
so why is 60th birthday special? In the Indian system, we count time in cycles of 60 years (the names of the 60 years - prabhava, vibhava etc) So when a person reaches 60, he is in the year of the same name as in which he was born and hence the successful completion of one cycle.
