What Every Hindu Ought To Know

PLACE OF RITUALS, TEMPLES AND FESTIVALS IN HINDUISM    

 
Ours has been a land of temples. There is no town or village without a temple, be that of Shiva or Vishnu, Devi or Hanuman, Ganesha or Subrahmanya. They are standing monuments to the continuing spiritual traditions of our country. And they have played a very significant part in the community life of our country, helping to preserve and enrich our religion and culture, arts and crafts through jatras, rathotsavas and festivals.

Festivals connected with certain sacred days and associated with certain temples or rivers or places of piligrimage, have been another potent factor in the religious life of our society.
