Beyond Ravana: Goa’s Dussehra | Dussehra special | Jungle Book | Epi 19 | 271026
About this episode
Beyond Ravana’s effigy lies a Dussehra tradition rooted in faith, nature and ancient folklore! In the villages of Parye and Keri, Sattari, Dussehra is celebrated through unique rituals that reflect Goa’s rich cultural heritage. The festival comes alive with the grand procession of Tarangas (sacred umbrellas), honouring deities like Lord Ravalnath, Bhutnath and Goddess Pavnai. Devotees also witness Avsar (divine trance rituals) and Palkhi processions, seeking blessings for peace and prosperity. These age-old customs connect people with their local deities, traditions and the natural world around them. In this episode of The Jungle Book, Samruddhi Kerkar explores the fascinating Dussehra celebrations and explains how this unique festival is deeply connected with nature. #TheJungleBook #Dussehra #GoddessPavnai #GoanTraditions #KonkanCulture #GoaHeritage #NatureAndLife #IndianFestivals #RootsOfLife #GoaCulture #SustainableLiving #Nature #TraditionalFood #SamruddhiKerkar
