About
India is a land of holy festivals and celebrations that rejuvenate and relieve its people from the monotony of daily life and its burdens. Its social and predominantly spiritual content make its people vibrant and religious. For devout Hindus festivals provide a mystical connection with God and their own atman. Festivals also lighten the burden of bad karma and help integrate devotion and knowledge in their lives. Festivals provide a beautiful and joyful mosaic of colour, pageantry, beauty, music, dance and rituals. Hindu festivals reinforce the innate fundamentals of each individual’s existence, both spiritual and temporal, which are otherwise overshadowed by mundane and rational activities. The spiritual fervour inspired through festivals convinces one that life is worthwhile, and that it is possible to live happily, religiously and righteously in the midst of an increasingly materialistic and indulgent society. Before we briefly explain how some of the main festivals are celebrated by Hindus in India and abroad, let us consider the Hindu calendar system.
