New Delhi, Nov. 15 -- Gratitude is not just appreciation. It's a way of acknowledging the forces and energies that sustain us. One of its most beautiful cultural expressions is Chhath Puja, a festival devoted to the Sun, the universal source of light, warmth and life. In Indian culture, the Sun is worshipped as Surya Dev, a symbol of vitality, consciousness, and strength. Every plant, animal and human relies, directly or indirectly, on solar energy to survive. Chhath Puja celebrates the basic relationship between humans and nature by offering to the rising and setting Sun and thanking him for the energy that allows us to exist.
