Rava Payasam/Semolina/Sooji Kheer [Festival Special]
Wishing
all readers and friends a very “Happy Vijayadashami”. Each day of Navaratri is
dedicated to one form of Parashakthi. Vijayadashami is the last day of
Navaratri on which Durga invoked as Mahishasuramardhini and destroyed all the
evil elements and killed Mahishasuran. Not only Durga’s victory over
Mahishashuran but also Lord Rama’s victory over the ten headed demon king
Ravana is celebrated on this special day. Vijayadashami literally means “victory
on the dashmi-the tenth lunar day of the Hindu calendar”.
Vijayadashami
marks a new victorious start in South India. It is considered very auspicious
day for starting formal education on Vijayadashami. It has been observed as the
day of “Vidyarambham”, the “beginning of learning” for centuries. The custom
goes by making the children aged two to three years to write their first
letters “ohm” and the first alphabet "aah in Tamil" in a plate of raw rice [nellu] by the guru with the right index
finger in temples and schools. Students keep their books and workers their
tools for puja on the ninth day of Navratri[Ayudha Puja, Saraswathi Puja],
these are taken back and used after special puja on the tenth
day[Vijayadasami]. Not only studies any form of art like Bharatanatiyam,
musical instruments, Carnatic music etc. are started on this auspicious day and
special respect and gifts offered to Gurus[teachers]. Check out other Payasam Varieties here.

Sakkarai Pongal Recipe/Sweet Pongal with Jaggery/Chakkarai Pongal Recipe/Sakkarai Pongal with step by step photos
Sakkarai
Pongal/Sweet Pongal with jaggery is an authentic and traditional dish prepared
on special pooja days and occasions for neivedhyam. Usually sakkarai pongal is
prepared in “vengala paanai” [bronze pot] or in a mud pot, but here I used a
regular heavy bottomed vessel. Sakkarai Pongal is made with rice, dal, jaggery
, milk and ghee on Pongal – Harvest festival of Tamil Nadu and offered to Sungod.
Today being Puratasi [Tamil Month] Saturday, I made this special sakarai pongal
for Lord Venkateshwara. Puratasi month is very important for Tamilians because
it is believed that lord Venkateshwara appeared on the Earth in this month. All
the Saturdays of puratassi month fasting is observed and special prayers are
performed. Sometimes fasting is carried out throughout the month also. Also check out other interesting facts about Pongal-Harvest Festival/Pongal Menu here
