This was the conclusion of our Narmada Parikrama.
With the bath in waters of Narmada, which I was gonna miss from now on , started the day with the Sankalpa purti pooja (संकल्प पुरती).
We cooked the Prasad (sweet sheera). Then the prayers , Kanya poojan etc etc.
And then finally crossed Narmada maiiya to reach Jitendra Sashtri's home where we were served tasty lunch.
Spent the whole day visiting various ghats and temples at Omkareshwar.
Had a mixed feeling of Joy of completion of the Parikrama , but also somehow had startedliking the Narmada river , its chilled water , its vast and deep waters , those clean banks.
But as the river flows on , Life too goes on.
The next day let Omkareshwar , heading back to Panvel !!
