Vāsara

Inspired by the Hindu way of life Vāsara explores the dimension of “Day” according to the Hindu calendar system. Taken literally, Vāsara means “Day” and is used as a suffix when referring to the weekdays in Sanskrit.

Hinduism has many festivals and events of significance occurring throughout the year based on dates set by the lunisolar Hindu calendars. These festivals typically celebrate events from the Hindu mythology, anniversaries of many spiritual masters and also aspects of human relationships.

Our mission is to curate information about these celebrations and help you stay informed about them all round the year through innovative digital channels.
