About the Hindu Guru Ravidas on his birthday
Hindu , Religion
Civil Rights
Ends: Feb 09, 2020
DESCRIPTION:
Today marks the birthday of Hindu Guru Ravidas who was born on the full moon of this month in 1377 AD or 1450 AD, depending upon the source, (historians disagree).
Each year on this day the faithful form an Aarti and a Nagar Kirtan procession with the guru's portrait displayed. It is a festival atmosphere of music and dance as the crowd makes its way to the local temple. When a river is near, devotees immerse in the water to perform rites.
Guru Raviass was one of the first civil rights activists. He taught that one is distinguished not by one's caste (jāti) but by one's actions (karma) and that every person has the right to worship God and read holy texts.
Today is a day in the Hindu and Sikh calendars set aside to honor him.
PLEASE NOTE:
We use the Indian Civil Calendar, which is the official holiday calendar in India, the largest Hindu nation. The Hindu faith has many calendars, each specific to different regions and tribes with dates and celebrations marked by differing positions of the sun, moon and stars. Names of months and holidays, as well as the corresponding dates in the Gregorian Calendar, vary widely from one calendar to the next. Use our dates as a baseline. Find out which of the dozens of Hindu calendars is used in the region you live or plan to visit if you are looking to attend or witness a specific observance.
