Worshipping the Sun


I am proud of Biharis, who for thousands of years, have exhibited and demonstrated their intelligence by showing a sense of Respect to the Sun by conducting Chhath Vrat and worshipping the Sun twice in a year. There are not many cultural Units in this country or even outside who do such a sensible work of paying back for the Obligation. Pl. note that though it looks like a Hindu Vrat it is not truly that because it does not need Brahmins to conduct the programme nor it has Karmakand to follow and to my information some Muslim families also do this in Bihar. Hats off to Biharis for this great sense for time immemorial.
