Chaitra Shukla Pratipada

From the Hindu Mandir

Dear Devotee

Chaitra Shukla Pratipada is first day of the Chaitra month to mark the beginning of New year according to the lunisolar Hindu calendar. According to Brahma Purana, this is the day on which Brahma created the world after the deluge and time began to tick from this day forth. This day is celebrated as New year in many parts of country. This festival is called Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra, Samvatsar Padvo amongst konkanis in Goa and Kerala, Ugadi in Andra and Telangana, Yugadi in Karnataka, Nevrah amongst Kashmiri Pandits and Cheti Chand among Sindhi people. It is also celebrated in the North-East state of Manipur where it is known by the name Sajibu Nongma Panba Cheiraoba.

We are celebrating Gudi Padwa /Yugadi / Ugadi festival at our temple on Saturday 1st April 2017. For festival details please see the poster.

      This sounds very interesting. We will discuss it at our next committee meeting at end of February and see when and where would be best. What size of space do you require? How many people take part?
      If you would like to meet us and talk about it, please come to our next bring and share dinner at Shirley House Interfaith Centre, 31 Psalter Lane (S11 8YL) on Wednesday February 28th at 6.00-8.00 pm.

      Thank you for contacting us.
      Best wishes,

      Caroline Cripps (Committee Member)
