Chhath festival is not only a festival of religious faith but also one of health and science. Worshipping the Sun God is held in special importance during this grand festival of folk faith. Pandit Giridhar Gopal Choubey, a renowned astrologer and religious leader from Sitamarhi, explains that the offering of water during the Chhath fast is a means of purifying both the body and mind. During this time, devotees offer water to the Sun God in the morning and evening, which not only provides spiritual purification but is also scientifically proven to help alleviate physical ailments.

Pandit Choubey says that the energy the body receives from the direct rays of the sun during the Chhath festival is miraculous. Scientists have also acknowledged that morning and evening sun rays activate skin cells and strengthen the immune system. Ultraviolet rays emitted from the sun have been shown to have properties that are believed to help alleviate many skin diseases, including leprosy. This is why offering water to the Sun and worshipping it hold special significance during the Chhath festival.

Many diseases will be cured.
Dharmacharya Choubey explains that ancient texts describe the Sun as a "disease-destroyer" and "life-giver." Standing in water and offering water to the Sun during the Chhath fast infuses a special kind of positive energy into the body. This provides mental peace and improves blood circulation. When devotees fast without food or water, toxins accumulated in the body are eliminated, increasing resistance to disease.

The Greatest Power of Chhath Mahaparva
Pandit Giridhar Gopal Choubey explained that worshipping Chhathi Maiya and worshipping the Sun simultaneously brings balance and health to one's life. This festival is not just about worship, but also a medium to understand the connection between nature, the environment, and the human body. He said that anyone who offers water to the Sun God with devotion, cleanliness, and determination will automatically remove negativity and disease from their life. This is the greatest power of Chhath Mahaparva.
