Marian festival

I also went to a festival for Mother Mary. (aka the BVM, Mother of God, etc.)

Apparently, Mary is pretty big in India. About %2 of the population are Christian, which means about 20million. I don't know if that percent is higher or lower in Mumbai.

There were a lot of people at the festival- I was curious to know if Hinduism has started to assimilate her into their religion, along with Jesus, but I did not get a good answer from my driver.

(at a couple of places, I saw walls that icons of various Hindu deities- as well as one of Jesus, which I found interesting.)
