Festival of Purification

The Festival of Purification is a religious event in Hindu tradition, typically celebrated in the month of Chaitra (March-April). It centers around cleansing and renewal, symbolizing spiritual and physical purification. Participants often perform rituals, take ritual baths, and offer prayers to seek forgiveness, health, and positive energy. The festival emphasizes the importance of removing impurities—both literal and metaphorical—to attain inner peace and spiritual growth. It also marks the arrival of spring, celebrating rejuvenation and new beginnings in community and individual life.
