Our theme for this year is about devis and the significance of Maha Meru. We have represented our golu steps in the form of Maha Meru, which is the 3d form of Sri Chakra. The Sri Chakra is considered as the highest form of Devi worship.

The Golu is a 10 ft x 10ft - 4 sided structure. Each side of this structure is dedicated to a different goddess.

The Maha Meru structure, from bottom to top, consists of three concentric squares, three concentric circles, two layers of lotus petals, followed by interlocking triangles, all culminating in the Bindu. In this setup, the Bindu is symbolized by Goddess Mahishasura Mardini.

Each layer of the Meru structure symbolizes a stage in spiritual progress of a devotee. The square boundary represents the physical world. The circles represent the materialistic things The 2 layered lotus petals represent vital aspects of life, such as 5 senses, 5 elements, 8 naadis of the body, etc. The interlocking triangles represent the spiritual progress and the Bindu, which is the union of Shiva and Shakti represents the culmination of spiritual journey and attainment of oneness with the universe

Hope you enjoy this golu!
