Eyes of the Divine

A GODDESS AMONG MERE MORTALS 

Look up, and you will see brilliant parades of clouds on the backdrop of clear blue skies. See around you. Bushes of 'kashphool' have blossomed here and there. 

It is autumn.

It is as if nature has invited someone. A mother, a goddess. We have again reached that time of year when Durga visits the earth. 

Durga Puja is one of the biggest festivals in Bangladesh. To celebrate this joyous occasion, this week Star Lifestyle has focused on the celebration of a daughter's visit back home. 

The last few days have indeed been an exciting and busy time at the Star LS headquarters, with the team covering different aspects of Durga Puja.

Relish in the sights and sounds during the days of the festival, when the air is thick with vibrant cheers and pomp and also fervour. Immerse yourself in the eyes of the divine, hypnotised by the ethereal beauty. And of course, take your LS copy to the kitchen to follow our recipes and cook mouth-watering delicacies for the occasion. 

From food to fervour to iconography, Star Lifestyle celebrates Durga Puja this week in all its cheer, passion and devotion. 

May this auspicious occasion wipe away all your sorrows and may the Mother bestow her blessings upon all!
