Importance of Chhath puja

Chhath Puja is one of the most prominent festival celebrated in India it is known by many names like Chhath Purwa Chhath Chhathi Dala Chhath Surya sasti and so on this festival is purely dedicated to Surya Dev who is the former and creator of this universe if we talk about the main reasons where this festival is celebrated then it is mainly celebrated in the Northern part of India which also includes Bihar and Uttar Pradesh but slowly slowly the people of different reasons started celebrating this festival and those reasons are Chandigarh Chhattisgarh Gujarat and Mumbai they also becoming a part of this prominent festival

Many things are taken care of during Chhath Puja, the first thing is that cleanliness is taken care of a lot during Chhath Puja.

So therefore the first task that is assigned to us is to clean the place where the feet are to be worshipped and these ghats are made on the banks of the river because during this worship we have to offer water at sunrise and sunset.

What you are seeing is a square shaped earthen slab which is used to keep fruit baskets annd first of all when we keep this fruit basket before this earthen mound is worshiped

Me and my friend's mother kept fast this time, so we both went together to make this square shape which is made up of clay and we also made as Swastik chinh with the help of some Rangoli colours it is believe in our Indian rituals that the Swastik chinh spread very positive Vibes

As I mentioned above that this festival is purely and fully devoted to Lord Surya and people also believes that because of only son we are able to live a sustain life on the earth and by doing this pooja be six the blessing of Surya Dev to live longer healthy and prosperous life if we talk about the month in which this festival is celebrated then I am going to give you a general idea that this festival is mostly celebrated in between the month of October and November and this festival is celebrated just after Govardhan puja

Another special thing about this festival is that none of the items offered to God during this festival are made in the shop.It is kept in mind that whatever material we are using in worship should be completely pure.

For this reason, the prasad distributed after worship is also made at home and mainly the prasad is good in pure ghee

Whatever Prasad you are seeing in the photos, we have to make it before the end of the Puja, but most of the time it is prepared at the beginning of the Puja itself.But this time due to many other tasks, we could not make Prasad in the starting, so after the first day's fast My mother and my elder brother together made this entire prasad at night and it was 12:00 in the night while we were making this prasad.

But believe me, when I distributed this Prasad among my friends, after that it seemed as if the hard work of the whole night disappeared in a moment.Because my friends who also ate Prasad, they praised him very much for Prasad and said that it has become very tasty.

Different stages of Chhath puja

• The first day is known as nahai Khaye on this day the devotees who are involved in Chhath Puja use to take a deep and river Ganga Koshi and Karnali and after them they take some Holi water at their home to prepare the offerings and it is one of the most important rituals Chhath Puja which we use to do on first day
  
• The second day is known as kharna on the second day of Chhath Puja the devotees who are fasting for whole the day used to end their first by wasping the sunset and after then they used to prepare offerings like banana and rice for family and after worshipping the sun and moon the devotees consume the Prasad and has a fast for 36 hours without water and this is the toughest part of this fasting Man of the peoples who were not be able to fast in this precious festival they give some fruits and money to the devotees who were fasting because spindle should be offered to the God from their side also
  
• The third day is known as Sandhya Aradhya on this day the devotees observed with full day fast without water for the entire day and makes the remaining things ready so that the Prasad is distributed among the peoples who reach on the Ghat to attend this precious festival of India that is Chhath puja
  
• The 4th day is known as bihaniya Aaradhya this is the last day of Chhath Puja and this moment the devotees again assemble to the bank of river or near any type of clean water source and offer the prayer and Prasad to the Rising Sun after offerings are done the devotees break their fast by eating Ginger sugar or anything which is available in the locality after all the rituals of Chhath Puja this amazing festival is purely ends

Medical importance of Chhath puja

All the people who are living in India must know this very well that all the seasonals are there in our Indian culture Apart from rituals and festivals, they are also medically helpful for us somewhere.A 36-hour fast is also observed during Chhath Puja, in which neither a person can eat anything nor drink water And from the scientific group, it is believed that if a person stays for 36 hours without eating or drinking anything, even a small amount of toxicity in his body will die And after that we complete our worship by offering water at sunset or sunrise on the banks of the river There is also a belief behind that that all the fungal infections etc that occur. Due to the rays of sunrise all those fungal infections and different kind of skin diseases is also cured

After the worship is completed, all the devotees who are present at the place of worship beg from those people who would have kept fast and it is also believed that the person who gets maximum prasad in begging is most fortunate.
