Rathasaptami is a festival dedicated to lord Surya, also known as Graharaja. He is said to ride a chariot with 7 horses and a single wheel and Aruna being his charioteer. You can read more about this HERE.

On Rathasaptami day we worship lord Surya to bless us all with good health and peace. Rathasaptami is observed on the 7^th day of Sukla Paksha according to the hindu Lunar calendar.This generally marks the beginning of the change of season from winter to summer. This day is celebrated with great significance in Karnataka, Orissa, Tamilnadu and Maharastra. We recite Aditya Hrudayam, Surya Ashtakam and do surya Namaskar as well on this day. Neivedyam or Prasad that are generally offered to the lord is Sakkarai Pongal, Payasam or Paramannam

Looks nice!

Thanks Raj 🙂

Raj there is huge positive feedback on the makeover of this blog. Thanks so much

Mission Accomplished 🙂

Looks so inviting Veena. Love the setup as well.

I like the new layout. It is simple and yet elegant. Some more color as a background in the title space may enhance the total getup.
Paramannam, possibly a variant of sakkarai pongal, looks very tempting.
