This year, top educational institutes are celebrating with programs like Nazm-e-Bahar, Jashn-e-Abha, and Jashn-e-Roshni. While these names may sound festive, some people think this is an attempt to Urdufy our traditional celebrations and make them less special. They argue that by not mentioning Diwali, the true meaning of our festivals is getting lost, similar to how Kerala's Onam has become more secular. Are we seeing a trend that weakens our cultural identity? It's important to think about how we celebrate and protect our rich traditions. What are your views on this?

🌅 નૂતન વર્ષાભિનંદન! 🌅 As we step into the Gujarati New Year, or Bestu Varas વિક્રમ સંવત 2081 , we celebrate not only a fresh start but also a convergence of tradition, spirituality, and resilience. The day is unique as it starts with the month Kartik (or Kartak in Gujarati), which is the eighth month in Saka Samvat calendar —the traditional national calendar. Moreover, this day connects with the story of Govardhan Pooja, where Lord Krishna lifted Mount Govardhan to shield the people of Gokul from torrential rains caused by Lord Indra. This act of protection and compassion is a reminder of the strength that lies in unity and devotion, values we carry forward into the new year. The origins of this New Year date back centuries and are deeply intertwined with Gujarat’s history. With strong roots in Jainism, where Diwali marks Lord Mahavir’s nirvana, the Vir Nirvan Samvat calendar begins the day after Diwali. This tradition grew, especially in Gujarat, where many businesses start their new financial records on this day—a blend of religious reverence and financial renewal. To everyone celebrating, Saal Mubarak! Wishing you a year filled with peace, prosperity, and the unwavering spirit of community. #GujaratiNewYear #SaalMubarak #BestuVaras #NewBeginnings #TraditionAndCulture #Community Reference: https://lnkd.in/dM-afgev (Declaration: The content for this social media post is sourced from a specific reference.

Dev Deepawali, also known as the "Festival of Lights of the Gods," is celebrated to mark the victory of good over evil and light over darkness, but with a unique spiritual and cultural significance. It occurs 15 days after Diwali and is observed primarily in Varanasi, the holiest city in India, where the ghats of the River Ganges are beautifully lit up with millions of oil lamps. According to Hindu mythology, it is believed to be the day when the gods, led by Lord Shiva, defeated the demons and returned to their heavenly abode, hence symbolizing divine victory. For businesses and organizations like Cosmos Staffing Solutions, Dev Deepawali is a reminder of the importance of striving toward excellence, overcoming challenges, and shining a light on the values of integrity, innovation, and collaboration. It also highlights the role of knowledge and community in creating positive change and progress. The occasion encourages reflection on how we, as individuals and teams, can contribute to a brighter, more prosperous future, much like the lamps that light up the night sky during this sacred festival. #DevDeepawali #FestivalOfLights #InnovationAndGrowth #CosmosStaffingSolutions #LightingTheWay #CollaborationAndProgress #EmpoweringTalent #Success

#BandiChhor Diwas: A Festival of True Freedom and Compassion on #Diwali While many celebrate Diwali as the victory of light over darkness, for #Sikhs, it also marks Bandi Chhor Diwas – a day honoring liberation, justice, and the power of standing up for others. On this day, Guru Hargobind Sahib ji, the sixth Sikh Guru, was released from imprisonment by Mughal Emperor Jahangir. But what makes this story remarkable is that Guru Sahib refused to leave alone, ensuring the release of 52 unjustly imprisoned kings before he walked free. So why should Bandi Chhor Diwas be a part of our curriculum? 1. #Promotes True #Heroes of #India: Instead of focusing solely on the reigns of Mughal emperors, our students should be introduced to stories of courage and compassion by real heroes like Guru Hargobind Sahib, who prioritized justice and humanity above all else. 2. Instills #Core Values: This event teaches students about compassion, courage, and justice—values that help build character and inspire students to stand up for what is right. 3. Enhances #Cultural #Awareness: Bandi Chhor Diwas, celebrated on Diwali, offers a unique perspective on the festival and reminds us of the shared history that unites India’s cultural fabric. Let’s #discuss: Wouldn’t introducing such events in our curriculum make our students more aware of their rich heritage? How can we inspire the next generation by sharing these stories of moral leadership? #BandiChhorDiwas #IndianHeroes #Diwali #IndianCurriculum #ValuesInEducation #InclusiveHistory
