[mukto-mona] Eid Mubarak and Happy Ganesh Festival

 

 

We wish all our friends Eid Mubarak!

 

This year Eid is being celebrated along with festival of Ganesh Chaturti and we wish all our Hindu sisters and brothers Happy Ganesh Festival!

 

Both festivals are of great significance and apart from having religious importance they are also significant of cultural events. We would also like to share with our friends that I saw original manuscript of Dara Shikho's translation of Upanishad in Darul-Musanaffin, Azamgarh, U.P. which is written in Darashikho's own handwritings. To my pleasant surprise it begins with words Ganeshaya Namaha (I bow to Lord Ganesh) on one hand and, on the other, with Bismillahir-Rahman-Alrahim (i.e. I begin in the name of Allah), who is Compassionate and Merciful.

 

We must be proud of our such unity and composite culture. We again wish all our Muslim and Hindu sisters and brothers Eid and Ganesh Chaturti Mubarak!
