Guest guest Posted July 30, 2006 Report Share Posted July 30, 2006 Reminder from the Calendar of /cal NAG PANCHAMI Sunday July 30, 2006 All Day (This event does not repeat.) Notes: Nag-Panchami is an important all-India festival and is celebrated on the fifth day of the moonlit-fortnight in the month of Shravan (July /August). This is the time when serpents invariably come out of their holes that get inundated with rain-water to seek shelter in gardens and many times in houses. As such they pose a great danger to man. Maybe therefore, snakes are worshiped on this day. From the time when mankind started acquiring some sort of culture, Sun and Snake have been invoked with prayers and ritual worship in most countries. http://www.bawarchi.com/festivals/nagpanchami.html Set up birthday reminders! http://us.rd./cal_us/rem/?/cal?v=9&evt_type=13 Copyright 2006 Inc. . http://www. http://privacy./ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
