Lucknow. Bada Mangal is being organized with great pomp this time too. Preparations are in full swing for the 18-year-old Bhandaara of Goyal Sons Samiti in Arya Samaj Mandir Road area on the first Tuesday of Jyeshtha month, i.e. 28 May.
,
Food is being prepared in the bhandaar for about 10 thousand people. Hanuman devotees will get puri, sabzi, boondi and chana in the bhandaar from 10 am till God’s will. Tents are being set up to protect people from the heat.
There will be long queues for darshan in temples, prasad will be available in the bhandaar
The belief of Bada Mangal starting is associated with the old Hanuman temple of Aliganj. In Lucknow, on Bada Mangal, there is a huge crowd in Hanuman temples from morning till late night. Darshan is done in the temple, but people reach the Bhandaars to get the Prasad. There will be a fair-like scene outside the temples.
Organisers of the Bhandaara, Rajiv and Suchit Bajpai say, “Our Bhandaara has been organised for the last 18 years. The taste of the vegetables served here is such that people automatically extend their hands for another dona (plate). Both pedestrians and people travelling in cars participate in our Bhandaara.”
Rajeev and Suchit Bajpai, who are associated with the bhandaara, say that the idea behind the bhandaara is that no one should remain thirsty or sleep hungry in the heat of Jyeshtha. Lucknow has been following this very religion.
