Brahma Kamal, a Very Rare Flower Bloomed at My Home

Brahma Kamal(ब्रह्मकमल) is one of the unique flower that blooms only at night time and so it is popularly known as "Night blooming Cereus", "Queen of the night", "Lady of the night". It is also known as King of Himalayan flower. Saussurea obvallata is the botanical name of this flower. Brahma Kamal begins to bloom after sunset and at night sets in and reaches its maximum beauty till the midnight(12.00 am).

Brahma Kamal is the beautiful creation of the Almighty. I was very much happy to see this flower for the first time, blooming at home at Dharwad.

Happy to Spend My Time in the Village

Back with my second post. Hope you all like it. I would like to share my thoughts on a small village, Post Chendia which is in Karwar Taluk in Uttar Kannada District of Karnataka State, India.

It is my granny's place. When I go to the village, I feel so happy and excited to visit Sakalbag which is surrounded by small mountain rocks, fields. When I was small, I would spend most of my summer holidays there along with my cousins. Those are the most memorable days we still remember. As the years passed with lot of improvements, there is less population in Sakalbag, but even now we visit that place, sit on the rocks of the small mountain, gather and eat some of the seasonal fruits like cashew apples, Kantam and spend our evening time on the banks of the river or a dam. We even go for fishing and enjoy a lot.

When I spend time watching the river, I just get completely involved in it. I strongly believe that the sound of the flowing water, the wonderful peaceful evening atmosphere will make anyone forget their worries for a moment.

My Thoughts and Feelings

This is my very first introductory post. I really feel happy to share my thoughts and feelings about the beautiful nature. There are many places where there is much greenery, a breathtaking scenic beauty and wonderful cool beaches. I get lost in it and enjoy each and every moment of my life. Along with it, if there is a good music, then it will be a great leisure time. I know, like me, there are many others who get connected with the nature's beauty which infact is necessary in our day to day life to get relax from the routine life and get peace. So "LET'S GET CONNECTED THROUGH HEART".
