Guest guest Posted October 10, 2006 Report Share Posted October 10, 2006 Reminder from the Calendar of /cal KARWA CHAUTH Tuesday October 10, 2006 All Day (This event does not repeat.) Notes: Karwa Chauth is a fast undertaken by married Hindu women who offer prayers seeking the welfare, prosperity, well-being, and longevity of their husbands. It is said to have an extraordinary observance rate among married Hindu women. Following a bath well before dawn, the woman adorns new clothes and partakes of a meal of select grains and fruit. For the rest of the day, she is bound to abstain from food and even water, though stricter rules of observance aren't always kept. Various items including a karwa, an earthen pot with a spout, are collected and worship is offered to Siva and Parvati.
