A visit to Kamakhya Temple during Ambubachi Mela and my personal experience
The Ambubachi Mela is an annual Hindu Mela held at Kamakhya Temple. This yearly Mela is celebrated during the monsoon season that happens to fall during the Assamese month 'Ahaar' around the middle of the June. It is the celebration of the yearly menstruation course of Goddess Maa Kamakhya.
Every year lakhs of pilgrims starting from 'Sadhus' to house-holders from all over India come to Guwahati to observe this Mela festival of Maa Kamakhya Devi. Like other pilgrims I along with my family members also visited the temple during the time of Ambubachi Mela last year. We were total 5 members in our journey. My father,mother, elder brother, mama & myself. That was our first time visit to Kamakhya Temple during Ambubachi time and we were blessed enough as our wishes was soon fulfilled.
We went by our personal car. But as personal car were not allowed to enter...
