Thanks Pras .. as always well written .. brings the festival ‘alive’ for so many I’m sure. Have had the good fortune to see the Mysore palace in all its glory during Dasara ..& Chamundeshwari Temple .. truly something not to be missed.

Thanks Pras. Was informative and useful. Though I am a kashmiri my wife is closely connected to Mysore as her mother is a Poorniya.

[Lakshmi Raman]

Thank you Prasanna for this Sunday's Filter Coffee. For me, the most interesting part was that you were personally witness to some of the festivities and grandeur of the Mysore Dasara as a child! I also visited the link to the Mysore State Anthem, listened to it and enjoyed the measured musical harmony of a song that brings alive devotion along with the heritage of the past.

[M R Prasanna]

Thank you Lakshmi. Much appreciated.

[Renu Gupta]

Took me back to days of listening to stories from my grandmother. What a fabulous collection of several stories.

[M R Prasanna]
