Hindu Festivals, Fair & Fasts Book
The purpose of this Hindu Festivals, Fair & Fasts Book is to make man aware to use his privileged rare ability. That is to reason and discriminate between good and bad. The purpose of studying the traditional rites, fasts, festivals, and fairs described here is to avail the rare opportunity for the individual to reach the divine level. In modern times, trends have greatly changed the basic concept of festivals. The modern generation, especially in northern India, celebrates the festival as a display of gaiety rather than as a means of worshiping deities and attaining spiritual enlightenment. Old Indian traditions and cultural rituals during festival times are still intact in the East, West and South of India. The descriptions of customs and ceremonies given in the book are brief, and not exhaustive.
If one were to describe each in detail, it would require several volumes, But the details, even if very little, are given in this book, the reader will find useful to enlighten his mind. Every country has some special traditions. These have many links to the culture and heritage of that country. Hence, they become a symbol of the identity of that country or state. For example, the Bhangra dance instantly identifies Punjab (India). It is so difficult to explain the origin and reasons of such customs and ceremonies. That even the sociologists of that country can hardly do so. Many attempts were there to trace their origins from the attested sacred books of the East. Such customs have, over a long period of time, become an integral part of the life of the people. That is of a particular community and country.
