Gudhi Padwa Celebration
by Triveni Mitra Mandal Executive Committee 2005
 Gudhi Padwa heralds the advent of a prosperous new year and is considered as one of the most auspicious days by Maharashtrians. On this day a pole named Gudhi is erected in front of the house. The 'Gudi' consists of a wooden stick and a steel 'loti' and it symbolizes a flag post.This flag-post in turn symbolizes the Victory of Shree Ram over the Demon King Ravana. The Gudi also symbolizes Shree Ram's triumphant entry into Ayodhya and is erected in homes as a mark of triumph of good over evil.
It is believed that on 'Gudi Padva' :
- The Universe was created by Brahma.
- Satyuga (The Age of Truth and Justice) began.
- King Vali was killed by Rama.Shri Rama returned to Ayodhya victorious.
- This is one of the 3 and a half days in the Hindu Lunar calendar, whose every moment is considered auspicious.

A Kind request:
We would like to bring to your attention, that many people in the past have said "YES" to R.S.V.P. and did not attend the program. This has resulted in considerable avoidable expenses. Only in the case of genuine emergency should this be allowed to happen. We expect you to give a serious consideration before saying "YES" or "NO" to R.S.V.P. Please co-operate.
Thank You!
