Visarjan

Visarjan is a Hindu ritual that involves the immersion of idols, typically of deities like Ganesha or Durga, into a body of water at the end of a festival. This act symbolizes the return of the deity to their celestial abode, embodying the cycle of creation and dissolution. It’s a way for devotees to bid farewell and express gratitude for the blessings received during the festival. Visarjan is often accompanied by music, dance, and community celebrations, emphasizing both reverence and joy, and reflects the spiritual ethos of impermanence in Hindu philosophy.
