🌞 The Soul of Mithila: Chhath Puja Festival छठ पूजा

छठ पूजा is one of the most spiritually significant and visually stunning festivals celebrated in the Mithila region of India and Nepal. Dedicated to Surya Dev (the Sun God) and Chhathi Maiya (the Goddess of Power and Nature), this ancient Vedic festival honors nature, purity, and gratitude.

For four days, devotees — especially women — observe fasting, purification rituals, and offer prayers while standing in water during sunset and sunrise. The celebration includes traditional songs, diya offerings, bamboo baskets filled with fruits, thekua, sugarcane, and seasonal produce. Families gather near ponds and rivers to worship the life-giving Sun, invoking health and prosperity for their loved ones.

The highlight of Chhath is the evening and morning arghya (offering water to the setting and rising sun), where devotion meets breathtaking beauty. Women in vibrant saris, singing ancient folk songs, create a powerful symbol of community strength and spiritual endurance.

At MithilaOnline, we celebrate and preserve this timeless tradition — connecting the global Maithil community with their roots.
