UPCOMING HHS EVENTS in 2025

FASTS & FESTIVALS

Hindu fasts (vrat) and festivals (utsav) are integral to the cultural and spiritual life of the Hindu community. Celebrated with specific rituals, prayers, and community activities, each event has unique traditions that reflect its spiritual significance and cultural heritage. These observances are marked by devotion, joy, and a deep sense of community, offering opportunities for worship, self-discipline, celebration, and the reinforcement of social bonds. Rich in rituals, stories, and meanings, Hindu fasts and festivals embody the diverse and profound nature of Hindu spirituality and tradition.
