Holy Basil - Shree Krishna Wedding

Yesterday was a very auspicious day to Hindus in general and Vaishnavites in particular. It marks the anniversary of the devine wedding between Lord Shree Krishna, an incarnation of Shree Mahaa Vishnu, and Thulasi Devi, an incarnation of Shre Mahaa Lakshmi.  Devotees worship the Indian Gooseberry form of Lord Shree Krishna and Holy Basil plant form of Shree Mahaa Lakshmi with utmost devotion on this day. They perform the Thulasi wedding with utmost devotion. A US based devotee has given details about Shree Thulasi Pooja, in Kannada language, in her blog. Divine wedding of Shree Mahaa Vishnu with Shree Thulasi Devi is conducted in all Vaishnavite places of worship,  as shown in this video.
