Ram, Naga Chaturhti is done just by married ladies. Panchami is done by young and old, men and women. No, I don’t think Naga Panchami and Garuda Panchami are the same.

Meera,

How can Naga Panchami and Naga Chaturthi be celebrated here in the US? Other than making “beyisida kadubu” to eat, I cant think of anything else.:-)

Sashi

Sashi, What’s the problem in celebrating the festival in the US? I have Silver Idol of Nagappa, and we do the pooje to the same.

Really commendable work! Thanks, especially for the songs.
do you have similar material on the Jyeshta-Kanishta( Yele-ashtami) festival coming up next month?

Sudha, I don’t think I have any book on that. But, will check.
