History of Navratri

UDAAN I SSUE -3 15/10/2012—26/10/2012 History of Navratri Legend says that when Mahishasura, the spiteful demon, who was a devotee of Lord Shiva, acquired unbeatable powers of eternity, he started taking away innocent lives. In order to stop him from taking over all the three lokas, Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Mahesh of the Hindu Trinity united their supreme powers and created a warrior goddess Durga who entered a war with Mahishasura. This war extended for nine days and on the tenth day she beheaded him. These nine nights signify the festival of Navratri. This week started with beginning of Navratari which is to be followed by different festivals like Dushera, Durga Pooja, Eid, Diwali etc. The Udaan-5 participants were in the mood of enjoying the day of the biggest festival in terms of duration i.e. Navratri.

These lions were once found across northern Africa, south west Asia and northern Greece. Now there are only around 411 left in the wild and all of them are in or around the Gir Forest National Park. Due to the efforts of Gujarat government & compliance by the people of Gujarat, today there are 411 lions instead of only 15 at the start of 19th century. The local Maldhari community has lived here for generations and coexists magnificently with the wilderness. They sustain themselves by grazing their livestock and harvesting what they need from the forest. The sizeable portion of their herds lost to lions and other predators is considered Prasad, offered in exchange for living in another's homeland. Many people come to Gir because, outside of Africa, it is the only place with wild lions. But to truly experience Gir and the lions, one must explore their natural habitat, with everything from tiny wild birds, not easily seen, but heard singing in the forest canopy, to crocodiles floating in the marsh waters. “The trouble with life is that you're half way through it before you realize it's a do it yourself thing.“ Exploring A’hmedabad– Kankaria Lake Udaanites were given a group task to explore A s h u t o s h Ahmedabad.
