Press Release Body: Festivals are the nodal points at which all the vibrations of the Universe concentrate in a sound imbued with meaning. Pongal is the most notable example of such a festival. Every Hindu country has its own variant in which it expresses its specific identity. The festival of Ganpati in the land of the Marathas, the festival of Durga in Bengal, and the festival of Onam in Kerala are examples of these manifestations.
Pongal is the festival of the winter solstice, when the Sun returns to its northern course; soon the days will begin to lengthen again. Even if today the solstice actually falls almost a month earlier, around 21 December, the ritual solstice is still observed on the same date as in the sixth century, perhaps because the Sun\'s entry into the constellation of Capricorn takes place at the same time as the harvest of the new rice. The date highlights the relationship between the Sun and rice, the ritual extends the relationship to man and society. The Sun causes the rice to emerge from water and become food and life for man. The instruments of this two-phase transmutation are the oxen which work in the rice-fields and the pot in which the rice is cooked. The festival brings together these four participants in the new life: the Sun, rice, the cooking pot, and the ox--as well as a fifth, village society.
Sankranti is a national festival in India. The word is derived from sat and kranti, meaning \"good movement.\" The festival takes place when the sun moves from Dakshanayanam to Uttaryanam.
