Answer:

India is the land of festivals. Makar Sankranti is one of the important festivals of Hindu religion that they celebrate with great joy and happiness. The festival is celebrated every year on 14 or 15 January depending upon the solar cycle. They celebrate by taking an early morning holy dip in the river and offering prayers to the sun because according to Hindu mythology sun is one of the many God.

The word Makar Sankranti derives from two words Makar and Sankranti. Makar means Capricorn and Sankranti means transition, which makes Makar Sankranti means the transition of the sun in the Capricorn (Zodiac sign). In addition, this occasion is a very sacred and auspicious occasion according to Hinduism and they celebrate it as a festival.

The shift of sun into Capricorn is of divine importance and we Indian’s believe that taking a dip in the holy river Ganga washes away all your sins and make you soul pure and blessed. In addition, it signifies the increase of spiritual light and reduction of materialized darkness. From the scientific point of view, from Makar Sankranti, the days become longer and the nights become shorter.

At this time if you take a holy dip in the river then all your sins and obstacle in life will wash away with the flow of the river.

To sum it up, we can say that it is a festival of great importance. Besides, it is important not only from a religious point of view but also from a scientific view too. In addition, it is a festival of happiness and joy and socializing with people. The true aim of the festival is to be respectful to others and live your life in peace and harmony with others.
