Bishorjan
Bishorjan is a traditional ritual in India, particularly celebrated in the state of West Bengal, marking the immersion of idols of Goddess Durga after the festival of Durga Puja. This event symbolizes the return of the goddess to her heavenly abode, signifying the cycle of creation and dissolution.
During Bishorjan, devotees gather at rivers or other water bodies to immerse the idols, accompanied by music, dance, and prayers. The ritual is not only a spiritual farewell but also a community celebration, reflecting cultural heritage and devotion. It emphasizes the transient nature of life and the importance of renewal.
