Chhath Pooja

Chhath Pooja is one of the most ancient and spiritually significant festivals dedicated to Surya Dev and Chhathi Maiya. Celebrated with deep devotion across Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, and beyond, it is marked by rigorous fasting, holy dips in rivers, and offering arghya to the rising and setting sun. Through this, devotees express gratitude for life, light, and energy while praying for the well-being, prosperity, and longevity of their families. Known for its sanctity and simplicity, Chhath beautifully reflects the bond between humans and nature, where faith, discipline, and devotion unite in a powerful spiritual experience.

Yet Chhath Pooja is more than a festival—it is a heartfelt return to our roots. The aroma of thekua, the glow of countless diyas on riverbanks, folk songs filling the air, and families gathered at the ghats awaken cherished memories of home and togetherness.

BiJUSA takes pride in hosting one of the largest Chhath Pooja celebrations in North America, where thousands of devotees come together with the same fervor and dedication. These celebrations not only rekindle nostalgia but also ensure that our rich cultural heritage is passed on to the next generation.
