Family Tradition

In India, there is no dearth of family traditions. Few are common across the various of her states whereas few are specific to individual states.

In my family, the one tradition which is common is, while leaving home for some town or far distant place, we need to take blessings of the God and also touch the feet of elderly family members and take their blessings as well.

Also while leaving, grandma or mom used to put the “Angara” – the incense stick ash to the forehead.

This is by default and followed through all my family and relations.

This gives a kind of confidence that the blessings of God, parents and elderly with us.

The same getting followed by my kid. Let’s see how far it will go.
