Preparations for Chhath Mahaparv have begun in Chakjafari. On the occasion, women observing the fast will offer arghya to Lord Surya at the nearly 250-year-old Guradari Math. Local devotees are showing enthusiasm for the religious event to be held at the ancient math.
Chhath Mahaparv is a major festival of sun worship and folk faith. During the festival, women observing the fast undertake a rigorous vrat, praying for the happiness and prosperity of their children, the well-being of their families and good health. As per tradition, they offer evening arghya to the setting sun and morning arghya to the rising sun the next day.
The historic Guradari Math of Chakjafari will be the main religious venue for the event. The Chhath Puja observance at this nearly two-and-a-half-century-old math carries special significance. With preparations for the festival under way, a devotional atmosphere has begun to build in the area. Devotees are engaged in preparing for sun worship according to traditional rituals.
