• Brothers and sisters, Goswami Tulsidas Ji says in Ramcharitmanas: ऋतु बसंत बह त्रिबिध बयारी e., three kinds of wind –the fresh, mild and fragrance – are flowing in the spring season and every organ of life from farms to orchards is joyful.
• Indeed, wherever we look, flowers are blooming and every person is standing to welcome spring.
