The rich history of Hinduism from Vedic era to modern times
FeaturedIndian classical dance forms originated as sacred temple rituals dedicated to Hindu deities. Bharatanatyam from Tamil Nadu portrays stories of Shiva. Kathak from North India narrates tales of Krishna. Odissi from Odisha is devoted to Lord Jagannath. Each dance form combines precise body movements, facial expressions, and hand gestures to convey spiritual stories.
FeaturedHindu weddings are sacred ceremonies that join two families through ancient Vedic rituals. The core ceremony involves the sacred fire (Agni), seven steps together (saptapadi), and tying of the mangalsutra. While these core elements remain constant, regional variations add unique customs. North Indian weddings feature the baraat procession, South Indian weddings include tying the thaali, and Bengali weddings have the beautiful shubho drishti ritual.
