Jat religious practices
Jat religious practices are rooted in their cultural traditions, primarily influenced by Sikhism and Hinduism. Many Jats adhere to Sikhism, practicing daily prayers, wearing symbols like the turban and kara, participating in community service, and observing festivals such as Guru Nanak's birthday. Those following Hindu practices may perform rituals, pujas (prayer ceremonies), and participate in festivals like Diwali. Jats emphasize rites of passage like naming ceremonies, weddings, and funerals, emphasizing community and family bonds. Their practices reflect a blend of spiritual devotion, cultural identity, and social cohesion, with rituals often centered around their religious and cultural heritage.
