[ Time For The Festivity
Sharad Purnima is known as Kumar
Purnima in Odisha. Kumar Purnima is the full-moon day in the month of
September- October. This autumn festival is one of the most popular and
important festival of Odisha. 'Kumar' or 'Kartikeya', the handsome Son
of Shiva was born on this day. He also became the 'God of war'. As
young girls always wish for a handsome husband, they propitiate Kumar,
who was most handsome among the Gods. ]
Away from their homeland, Odias in North America always love to be
in festive mood;never miss a festival. Along with Holi, Ganesh
Chaturthi, Saraswati Puja, Car Festival of Lord Jagannath, Dashahara,
Deepavali , they Celebrate 'Kumar Purnima' with lot of enthusiasm and
put lot of hard work to make this event a memorable one.
The belated Kumar Purnima 2008, was celebrated on
1st Nov 2008 at Life fellowship church. [ 611 Little School Rd, Kennedale, TX ]
Well... Who says Odias don't like Church and Hindu festivals can't be
celebrated in a Church ? That is not certainly the case in USA .
Who says Odias are only good in studies ?
Well.. Here is the proof and just wait for the NGN (Next-Generation)
Odias to hit the National Competitions and steal the limelight.
