    Dear Chithra and fellow IL-ites,

    I am back in IL after a long time indeed. I have been reading some of the posts, but somehow did not find time in the last 2 to 3 weeks to respond to and relish them, as I usually do.

    I just 'caught up' with the Navaratri specials - description of Goddesses, Kolu photos, do's and dont's etc etc.

    Thank you all for the beautiful and informative write-ups and pictures. It made me feel like I was invited to each of your homes for Navaratri :) Very nice to see pictures of IL-ites and their Golu art works ! Too good.....

    May the Goddesses bless us and our families with knowledge, prosperity and courage at all times on the occasion of this spiritual festival.

    Happy Navaratri to you all.

    With love
    Pavithra

    Dear Revathy,
    The temples for Sarasvathi are less - the same holds good for our knowledge of all details of the Goddess!
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Please refer to Sarasvathi ashtothram. It is available on the net.
    Some that I remember, are
    Shwetha
    Bhadra
    Medha
    Manasvini

    Love,
    Chithra.
