Manage episode 445777111 series 3490690
Asoo Chand** is a significant Sindhi festival that marks the celebration of the full moon in the Hindu month of **Aso (Ashwin)**. It generally falls in September or October, coinciding with the harvest season. This festival holds religious importance as it is dedicated to **Jhulelal**, the patron saint of Sindhis, who is considered an incarnation of the river god Varuna.
During Asoo Chand, devotees offer prayers and seek blessings for prosperity and protection. The festival is marked by devotional songs (bhajans), prayers, and community feasts. It is a time for Sindhi families to come together and strengthen their cultural and spiritual ties.
