Dear Friends,
Greetings! Wishing you joy and peace as we approach the beloved festival of Navaratri. The fall semester began just a few weeks ago, but the lively energy at Emory has already brought the community together in meaningful ways, and we’re excited for what the rest of the semester will bring.
To start off the new academic year, the Hindu Students Association held a beautiful interactive puja to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi. Each attendee was provided with a personal puja thali and the program was rounded out with a traditional Ganesh aarti and laddu prasad. We were truly inspired to see the enthusiasm around the festival with over 80 Emory community members in attendance.
The enthusiasm continues as we now prepare for a festive Navaratri season. The HSA will be hosting their highly-anticipated, annual Garba tomorrow, and the days following will include a Golu-making session and Durga puja. We are just thrilled to have the opportunity to revive and revisit these festivities in full swing.
