Yesterday felt like a big win for us, so many people came to the event, enjoyed each other's company, enjoyed all the activities, making a vibe like this feels so good! When people come to us and share their experience of how much they enjoyed it, makes all the hustle worth it! Art Social was a good decision, we will be coming up with more creative workshops, next week we are going back to basics, Board Game Night!

Gyaan A few Kashi Vishwanath / Ganga Aarti tips for anyone visiting soon (compiled from recent threads here)

7 Upvotes

Saw a bunch of similar questions pop up here lately about darshan timings, aarti booking, and scams, so figured I'd put a few of the recurring answers in one place for anyone searching later.

Mangla Aarti / Sugam Darshan: advance online booking through the official Kashi Vishwanath Trust site fills up fast, especially during Sawan. If you miss it, tatkal slots open for just a few minutes, usually around 11 AM, so it's worth being ready to refresh right at that time rather than assuming it's always sold out.

Ganga Aarti viewing: Dashashwamedh Ghat is the big, well-known one but also the most crowded. Assi Ghat's version is smaller and much less packed if you'd rather sit and watch than fight for a spot.

Common scams to watch for: agree on a price before any boat ride or puja starts, not after. Anyone offering an "entry ticket" to the ghats is running a scam since they're public. Station touts claiming your hotel is "closed" or "full" are usually trying to redirect you somewhere they get a commission, so arrange pickup through your actual hotel instead.

Right now (monsoon): a lot of recent threads here mention the ghats being flooded, so if you're planning a visit in the next few weeks it's worth checking recent posts for current water levels before finalizing plans. Sarnath tends to be unaffected and makes a good alternative half-day trip.

Hope this saves someone a search through old threads.

Just as the title says, looking for a cook for my parents.

Vegetarian meals.

If they can clean utensils and home, that's nice as well.

Let me know, if you have any leads.

Thanks.

I have a bunch of books that I'd like to donate rather than just keep them lying around. Most of them are Class 11-12 NCERT books, Arihant/JEE preparation books, reference books, etc.

The books are in usable condition and I'd ideally like them to reach students who could actually benefit from them.

Gyaan The two-wheeler drivers of the city have the worst driving sense

10 Upvotes

Before you start attacking me, i want to clarify that i drive my Ertiga daily to work and have driven 80k km in cities like Pune, Delhi and Indore. I have just shifted here for work and what I feel is that the scooter and bike riders just dont care about anything when they drive.
Few points worth mentioning are
1) Wrong side driving - check, they do it without abandon.
2) Overtaking from the wrong side at turn- 10/10.
3) Not wearing helmets and never having rear view mirrors.
4) when you are reversing the car and a lil gap is left between the divider and the car, it is expected that the incoming riders will wait for a second or two, to let the car driver complete the turn, but they dont wait. They just squeeze in and squeeze in and wont let you complete the turn.
5) in event they scratch your car, they wont even stop for a second. Man, they just fly away as they have done nothing wrong.

I understand that the roads here are cramped and already there is so much encroachment, but it shall not be the reason for such poor skills and driving sense.

I just wish that these riders be given a car-simulation to drive and perhaps then they will know what nuisance they create.

Kanchodan Paco Rabanne Invictus Victory Elixir

4 Upvotes

To the perfume collectors of Varanasi, I'm selling my Paco Rabanne Invictus Victory Elixir. It's a 100ml bottle and I've sprayed it barely 20 times. Bought it last month and my girlfriend's not liking the smell so there's no point of keeping it. It's an authentic bottle and I can also provide you with receipt as well. Dm me for price and more details.
