Surya in Sanscrit, Chhat parba is thanks giving to lord Surya for sustaining
life on earth and to worship him to provide his continuous blessings to
mankind.
The Sun, source power of nature, considered the
god of energy and lord of the life-force, is worshiped in Chhath to promote
well-being, prosperity and progress. Hindu people believe sun helps to cure
many illness and diseases. Sun is considered as source of healing too. Sun is
also considered as token of stability and prosperity. Therefore, people
worship sun to ensure the longevity and prosperity of family members, friends
and beloved ones.

communities and religions from across the country and world breaking all the
