Hindu festivals are not just cultural celebrations; they are deeply rooted in astronomy, seasons, and spiritual significance. The dates are determined by the luni-solar calendar, ensuring they align with specific cosmic energies.
Events like Diwali, Holi, and Dussehra mark major mythological victories or seasonal transitions. They are celebrated universally across India.
Days like Ekadashi, Pradosham, and Sankashti Chaturthi are dedicated to fasting and purification. Fasting on these days helps detoxify the body and focus the mind.
Birth anniversaries of deities and saints (e.g., Rama Navami, Krishna Janmashtami, Gandhi Jayanti). These days are for remembering their teachings.
Note: Festival dates can vary by location because they depend on the Tithi prevailing at sunrise. Bhakti5 calculates precise dates based on your selected city's latitude and longitude.
