SOMANATH

FESTIVALS

There are many festivals celebrated throughout the year, dear to Siva. Among them, the Somanath Mela held in the middle of Karthik is very popular and important. Besides, the months of Chitra and Badrapada have special attraction, when Pitru shradda and Narayana Bali shraddha are offered. The Brahmips of this place are Ved pathis, and an authority on Yajurveda; and offer poojas in a unique way.
