Namaste,

There is nothing like the faithful keeping the traditions alive by performing ceremonial rituals and reaffirming their faith in their deities/religion. Exposing the next generation to their ideals through such extravagant displays of devotion, and working through teamwork to make everything happen must give the participants an emotional high. Gujratis exemplify the concepts of togetherness and team spirit and must be commended for that.
Pranam.
