Vedavyaasaa and Narasimhaa Fests

Yesterday was an auspicious day in the Hindu Calender. It was the birth anniversary of Lord Vedavyaasaa, an incarnation of Shree Mahaa Vishnu. Sage Vedavyaasaa is considered to have written the two epics 'Raamaayanaa' and 'Mahaa Bhaarathaa' as well as many other Divine Scriptures.

Today is also a very auspicious day in the Hindu Calender. It was on this day, billions of years back, that Shree Mahaa Vishnu incarnated as Shree Narasimhaa.
