All Hindu festivals have a deep
spiritual import or high religious significance.
All great Hindu festivals have religious, social
and hygienic elements in them. In every festival
there is bathing in the morning before sunrise in
the river or tank or well. Every individual will
have to do some Japa, prayer, Kirtan, recitation
of Sanskrit verses and meditation.
Indian Festivals are much more than celebrations.
They are windows into the history of rich Hindu
legends. They reveal the mind and philosophy of a
nation through the different ages. Festivals have
a cultural and social aspect which many feel
transcends even their spiritual significance. They
bring people together in friendship and love, and
help heal broken relationships. |
