  • Haridwar 2021 / Kumbh Mela
    Haridwar 2021 / Kumbh Mela “E’ meraviglioso il potere di una fede, cosa può fare quando moltitudini di vecchi e giovani entrano senza esitazione o lamentele in viaggi così incredibili e sopportare le miserie risultanti senza replicare. E’ fatto nell’amore o nella paura; non so quale sia. Non importa quale sia l’impulso; l’atto che ne deriva è oltre l’immaginazione, meravigliosa per il nostro genere di persone, bianchi senza calore” “Mark Twain dopo aver partecipato a Kumbh Mela nel 1895 Non c'è occasione migliore per visitare l'India durante Kumbh Mela, che non è solo il più grande festival indiano ma è anche il più grande raduno di persone per il beneficio spirituale. Milioni di devoti da ogni parte del mondo si radunano in uno dei luoghi più sacri per gli indù: Haridwar, letteralmente “Porta di Dio situata ai piedi dell'Himalaya”. Kumbh ha un significato diverso per ogni persona. Dipende da come lo si vuole percepire. Per coloro che cercano la spiritualità, è un luogo divino con tutti i guru spirituali intorno. Per i viaggiatori, è un'esperienza partecipare al più grande raduno di persone giunte non solo dall'India ma da tutto il mondo. Per i fotografi, offre l'opportunità di catturare immagini straordinarie, i vari stati d'animo, l’abbigliamento e la fede delle persone che non trovano riscontro in nessun'altra parte del pianeta. Per i ricercatori, rendersi conto e analizzare un progetto su come creare in così poco tempo un insediamento urbano di vasta dimensione, di organizzare e saper controllare una così grande moltitudine di persone.

  • (Hindu) Calendar - 06-10-2013 by Rajen Barua - Gonit Sora
    Reinventing the Indian (Hindu) Calendar - 06-10-2013 by Rajen Barua - Gonit Sora - https://gonitsora.com Reinventing the Indian (Hindu) Calendar by Rajen Barua - Monday, June 10, 2013 https://gonitsora.com/reinventing-the-indian-hindu-calendar/ Summary: Following the Indian (Hindu) calendar, we Indians are celebrating the seasonal festivals on wrong dates. It is because in the Indian calendars, the seasons are out of phase with the real tropical phenomenon of the earth. This article analyses how and why we are doing that and what to do about it. In the Indian calendars, the Makar Sankranti which marks the transition of the Sun into Makar Rasi (Capricorn), generally falls around 14th or 15th January of the Gregorian calendar. Makar Sankranti also marks many of the Indian harvest festivals such as the Pongal of the Tamils, the Bhogali Bihu of the Assamese, the Maghi (Lohri) of the Punabis, Bhogi in Andhra Pradesh etc. Many communities start their new years on this date. Astronomically, Makar Sankranti is the winter solstice. It is the shortest day marking the beginning of the Uttarayan (the northern journey) of the Sun with gradual increase of the duration of the day. The Bhagavad Gita mentions great importance of the Uttarayan. This was the reason why Bhishma, when wounded in Mahabharata war, chose to await for the Makar Sankranti, before choosing to die. In the Jagannath temple at Puri the Uttarayana Yatra is celebrated on this Makar Sankranti day. Like the Makar Sankranti, three other sankrantis mark the cardinal poles of equinoxes and solstices of the Indian calendar.
