6 months back when I visited Chennai , I came across a ‘perfect’ family .This time too that part didn’t had any change other than a small one . I got to meet more than one ‘perfect’ families. So if this goes on like this every time I go to Chennai I get to meet ‘perfect’ people, ‘perfect’ families, I don’t know where will it reach. The one great problem with this ‘perfect’ people are all others are imperfect except them which make the situation worse .But this ‘perfect’ people are too good, they want to make this world a ‘perfect’ one.. so they try telling out the sort of imperfections in others so that they can correct them self .(Remember ! the situation is becoming worse, all are ‘perfect’ people and they think others should change, But how did they manage to compromise in the same slogan ‘others need to change’ , which I don’t understand yet )
I fear , how may more ‘perfect’ people or families I will have to come across.. The only possible way which came up in my shallow mind is I must stop going to Chennai for a while, at least until till I could take up the next :D
( my dear readers , I am telling you about these ‘perfects’ only on behalf of very small number of people I get to meet there, in Chennai ,Sorry! If my knowledge is wrong )
To do shopping with my mum is really a tough task , indeed I enjoyed it this time , and I felt “ I want to spent more time out shopping, just a sack full of money and more time would have made me buy more .
One wish : I want to spent 3 months of my active, energetic time in Chennai
My purpose of visit to Chennai was my cousin’s wedding
Allow me to take you the wedding place
Just enough crowded with close friends and relatives, bride and groom are chanting some vedic mantras along with the bride’s father which instructed to them my priest.
Now its time for the wedding
The priest : “ In this world we all know there are two grahnams (eclipse ), Surya grahnam (solar eclipse )and Chandra grahanam( lunar eclipse ), But No , there are three grahanam , the third one is pani grahanam (accept the bride’s hand in marriage).
The two above said grahanams, surya and Chandra just last with us for 2 ½ hours with us after that they leave us, But pani grahanam doesn’t leave you once it holds your hand. It last as long as you live. From now you must earn and allow her to spent ,
Now , Hold her hands “
Poor groom had no other choice, he made “couldn’t you tell about this before “ face to the priest .
The bride’s mother, uncle and even mother in law where crying after the marriage. My father got stuck with it. He was made to think by the bride’s mother in law, “ why should the mother in law cry ??“.. and finally he concluded may be because she thought about she losing all her power over her son.
Food was indeed good and different , the night before wedding they had chat stalls, kulfi , fruits stalls, sandwich stalls and even more on the following day .
So that’s the marriage update
My wishes to the Bride and Groom :
To the Bride: All the best!!! Let God make you remember all the possible and non possible things you want to accomplish in this birth .
To the Groom : All the best!!! Let God may give you power, patience and energy to full fill all her wishes
We returned back after the function was over :)
PS: This time I had plans to write travelers note, But I couldn’t as most of the time I was busy sleeping .
