Dear Donor/ supporter!

BARNAMALA EDUCATIONAL AND CULTURAL SOCIETY, our staff and our community wish you “ HAPPY MAKAR SANKRANTI ”. A festival of thanks giving in West Bengal.

About “MAKAR SANKRANTI”

According to tradition, the festival marks the end of winter season and the start of the sun's six-month-long journey northwards when the sun enters the zodiac Makara (Capricorn). The festival is named after the ceremonial "Makar Sankranti", which means "to boil, overflow" and refers to the traditional dish prepared from the new harvest of rice boiled in milk with jaggery (raw sugar). To mark the festival, the makar sweet dish is prepared, first offered to the gods and goddesses (goddess Ma Ganga), followed sometimes with an offering to cows, and then shared by the family. Festive celebrations include decorating cows and their horns, ritual bathing and processions. It is traditionally an occasion for decorating rice-powder based Kolam artworks, offering prayers in the home, temples, getting together with family and friends, and exchanging gifts to renew social bonds of solidarity.

Makar is one of the most important festivals celebrated by Bengali people in West Bengal, Odissa, Asam, Tripura and several state in India. The festival's most significant practice is the preparation of the traditional "makar" dish. It utilizes freshly harvested rice, and is prepared by boiling it in milk and raw cane sugar (jaggery). Sometimes additional ingredients are added to the sweet dish, such as: Cardamom, raisins, Green gram and cashew nuts. Other ingredients include coconut and ghee.

The most important thing is that cows give us milk. They are an essential source of milk for mankind. The milk given by cows helps us in staying healthy and strong. Milk has a lot of benefits which keeps various illnesses away. Moreover, it also enhances our immune system. The milk also produces a lot of products like butter, cream, curd, cheese and more.

Cows are considered to be a sacred animal in the Hindu religion. The ardent followers of religion worship this animal like a Goddess. A cow has been honored with the status of a mother in Hinduism. This is why people refer to it as ‘Gau Mata’ which translates to Mother Cow.

Cows have a lot of benefits to mankind. They help us give milk. Through milk, we get a lot of products like butter, cheese, curd and more. In addition, people also use cows for their cow dung and cow leather. Cow dung comes in handy as a rich fertilizer. Plus, cow leather gives us soles, belts, car seats and more

Even the cow dung is used for many purposes. People use it as a really rich fertilizer. In addition, cow dung is also an efficient producer of fuel and biogas. Cow dung is also used as an insect repellent. Plus, people also use it as a building material and raw material for paper making.

People keep cows at their homes for various benefits. The cow is found all over the world and it is a pet all over the world. Her back is long and wide. It is considered as sacred and used during many pooja and katha in Hindu religion. Almost everyone keeps cow at home to get fresh and healthy milk daily. The cow is an animal that can be domesticated. Cow milk is used all over the world to prepare several eatable It is very important and useful domestic animal. I enjoy being busy all the time and respect a person who is disciplined and have respect for others. It is told by the doctors to patients to drink cow milk. Cow’s milk is considered an elixir. She gives us milk, calf (either female cow or male cow ox), co-dung, gau-mutra while living and lots of leather and strong bones after death. Offering specialized medical care for orthopedic injuries, unlike other urgent cares or emergency rooms that treat people who have a broad range of urgent health problems. In the Vedic period the number of cows used to be the standard of prosperity. It is a successful domestic animal kept by people at home for many purposes.
