Book Description
Festivals and Holy Days are very familiar, very important interwoven part of our religious and social life. Leaving aside the holy days, undoubtedly, festivals are objects of natural love to the entire human race. Poet Laureate Kalidasa, has observed this truth and says ‘Human beings are fond of festivities’ (“utsava priya khalu manuShyaaH” shaakuntala Act 6). They are especially happy occasions of life. The most common method in which people all over the world celebrate festivals is by getting together with family and friends, enjoying the savory gourmet foods, drinking to the best of their ability (at times, even spending beyond their means), singing, dancing and chit chatting to their hearts content, forgetting their troubles, if any. In this book we will elaborate in a chronological order beginning with the first month of the year, incorporating any special features in the description of festivals (parvas).

Book Description
Hindu ‘Fire ceremonies’ called Yaga, Yagna, Homa, and Havan are observed by the Hindus for thousands of years. My book is a collection of my articles written over ten years on this subject. I have added the festivals celebrated by the Hindus as well. It is not a comprehensive one. There are many more not reported here. But important rituals and fasts are covered in it. In the last section of the book, I have included my articles on Boons and Curses and Haloes and Importance of Days of the Week. In a way, they are all related to the title of book.

Book Description
Saṅkrānti is one of the most important festivals of the Sanātana Ārya Bhāratiyas. In scriptures it is called by other names such as Saṅkrānti, Makarasaṅkrānti, Makarasaṅkramaṇa, Makarasaṅkramaṇa, and Uttarāyaṇa puṇyakāla also. In Tamil Nadu it is called Pongal. Common people also call this as ‘Ellina Habba’. Though the distribution of sesame is in vougue in the next festival also i.e. ‘rathasaptamī’, it is only Saṅkrānti which is renownedly associated with the significance and fame pertaining to the gifting of sesame, and thus is well known as Eḷḷina habba. The Kannada proveb “Eḷḷu bellava tindu oḷḷeya māthanāḍu’ owes it’s origin to this festival. Our other books here can be searched using #BharathaSamskruthiPrakashana

Book Description
The Nāgapañcami occupies an important place in the traditions brought forth by the sanātana Āryabhāratīya Maharshis, This is even considered by some as one of the supreme parvas, in place of Akshaya tṛtīyā. This parva is observed in all parts of this country by people belonging to all sects, creeds and philosophical systems. Though there are differences in the modalities of observance, all of them observe this with great devotion, faith and religious fervor. We see that this vrata is being observed by all, except by those who have a vow not to observe kāmya vratas and those who are devoted to only one deity like Śiva, Vishṇu etc. Even such Ekadevopāsakas (devoted to a single god) sometimes observe this as a kāmyavrata. People observe this vrata with the desires such as - “Let not serpents bite us, Let the peril from poison be averted. Let us have progeny. Let us be bestowed with wealth. Let us be free from skin diseases. Let us attain heaven”, Etc.,. This vrata is also observed with the objective of awakening Kunḍalini i.e. Prāṇaśakti for the early phalasiddhi (results) in yogābhyāsa. As the name of the vrata itself clearly states, the deity that is specially worshipped on this day is Nāgadevatā. Our other books here can be searched using #BharathaSamskruthiPrakashana

Book Description
Akshaya Tṛtīyā is considered as one of the most important festivals celebrated in the month of Vaiśākha. There is a reference to this parva in the Bhavishya Purāṇa where Lord ŚrīKṛshṇa himself has described the extraordinary greatness of this Vrata. This day is considered as one of the most commendable days for taking bath in the Gaṅgā and to worship Lord ŚrīKṛshṇa with dhūpa, dīpa, Pushpa and Candana. ŚrīKṛshṇa, the God of all gods refers to Badari as “My Āśrama” and narrates the great benefits one gets by going on a pilgrimage to Badarī.

Book Description
Subbarāyana Shashṭhī is an important Vrata observed in the month of Mārgaśira. Though its scriptural name is ‘Skandashashṭhī’, since the Lord is famously known by names such as ‘Skanda’, ‘Shaṇmukha’, ‘Kumāra’ etc, is called ‘Subrahmaṇyeśvara’ in tradition, the vrata parva of Shashṭhī tithi (related to his special) worship is called ‘Subbarāyana Shashṭhī’ in custom, where the word Subbarāyana is the kannada version of the Sanskrit word of Subrahmaṇya Rāja.
