Normally celebrated the day following Diwali, this year it is being observed on Saturday November 2, aligning with the specific lunar 'tithi' (date) at dawn.
Thanks for thought privoking 'Philosophical and Cultural Significance' of Gocerdhan Pooja.
If Lord Krishna ( who personifies end all and beginning of universe ) inculcated a sense of sanity in no less than Indra, there is no reason Krishna's benovelace will not coax us to emancipation from modren day pollution. Environmentalists ( including you ) are up in arms with collective consciousness to fight polluters.
I think blaming Delhi pollution only on crackers makes little sense. Look at other polluted cities of world, Lahore, Beijing, Dhaka on the same day. There were no fire-crackers in these cities. A myopic view of the problem is the reason why it has not been resolved so far.
