Shubho Bijoya Dashami Bengali Greetings to All

Significance of Bijoya Dashami

The main rituals on Dashami, the 10th day of the Durga Puja festival are: Devi Boron, Sindur Khela, Bisorjon (immersion of idols) and sprinkling of Shanti Jal.

The idol of Goddess Durga and her four children are immersed in water; often a tearful farewell. Friends greet each other with a hug and wish “Shubho Bijoya!” meaning “The Auspicious Victory”. Water from this spot is carried back to the pandals. This water is Shanti Jal and is sprinkled on devotees by the purohit.

Today the sky looked gorgeous. Sunbeams diverged from behind the clouds; my daughter got this spectacular view of Crepuscular rays.

How to wish Shubho Bijoya

Youngsters and kids touch the feet of their elders to seek blessings. Elders in return treat them with loads of blessings and sweets. Men do kolakoli, which is the Bengali word for embrace. It is a hug; mutual embracing, a form of warm greeting.

Shubo Bijoya is celebrated from the last day of Durga Puja for about a period of three days till Lakshmi Puja is celebrated on the full moon night immediately after Pujo.
