![Choosing what is right is also Bhakti.
Dussehra reminds us that the victory of good over evil is not only a story from the past.
It lives in the choices we make every day.
To choose truth over convenience.
Kindness over anger.
Courage over fear.
Dharma over ego.
Because Bhakti is not only in prayer.
Bhakti is also in choosing the good, again and again.
Happy Dussehra from Global Bhakti Fest.

![Nine nights, countless traditions, one shared feeling.
Across India, Shakti is celebrated through dance, music, art, prayer, stories and community. Different regions may express devotion in different ways, but the spirit at the heart of it remains the same.
One Spirit of Bhakti.
One Nation. Infinite Shakti.
And as Navratri comes to a close, that spirit continues at Global Bhakti Fest 2026.

![We often look to the Divine for strength, courage and peace. But Navratri is also a reminder to recognise those qualities within ourselves.
In the courage to speak.
In the patience to wait.
In the kindness to care.
In the wisdom to let go.
And in the strength to begin again.
The Devi Within.
Because Bhakti is not only about what we pray for. It is also about how we choose to live.

![In Himachal Pradesh, devotion travels.
During Kullu Dussehra, local deities journey from villages across the valley, carried in beautifully decorated palanquins as music, devotees and communities move with them.
It is a powerful reminder that Bhakti is not always a private experience. Sometimes, it is something an entire community carries together.
Bhakti is also about gathering.

Through the beautiful tradition of Golu, homes become spaces of memory, music and togetherness, where stories of gods, goddesses, saints and everyday life are shared across generations.
It is a reminder that Bhakti is not only what we feel. It is also what we choose to remember, share and pass on.
Sometimes Bhakti is a story that lives on.
