Shubho Mahalaya 2023 wishes: Messages, greetings WhatsApp/Facebook status, quotes to share with loved ones

On Saturday, October 14, the auspicious occasion of Mahalaya falls. The day marks the start of Debi Paksha (the Goddess' period) and falls on the last day of Pitru Paksha. Mahalaya denotes the appearance of Goddess Durga. It is observed by Maa Durga worshippers a week before the beginning of the Durga Puja festivities. It is widely observed throughout the country, particularly in Bengal, Odisha, Assam, Tripura, and Bihar. 

On Mahalaya, people get up at four a.m. to listen to a radio transmission of Mahishashur Mardini, recounted by late radio announcer Birendra Krishna Bhadra. It is a literary story infused with music that narrates Maa Durga's victory over Mahishashura. 

In addition, family elders pay homage to their ancestors by performing Tarpan, a ceremony in which they present water to the souls of the ancestors on the banks of the Ganga. Finally, sculptors simply design Goddess Durga's eyes, paint them, and perform a special puja. If you and your loved ones are celebrating Mahalaya this year, here are some wishes, messages, greetings, and photographs to welcome Maa Durga that you may post with them on Facebook, WhatsApp, and other social media platforms.
