The President's Committee on Religion, Spirituality and 1xbet online casino Diversity presents the global observance information for March 4-10.
Maha Shivaratri — Friday, March 8. Tradition: Hinduism. A feast dedicated to the Hindu deity Shiva. The night before the feast fasting is observed, texts are recited, songs are sung, and stories told in honor of this God whose cosmic dance creates, preserves, destroys and recreates the world.
Nineteen Day Fast — Feb. 29-Tuesday, March 19. Tradition: Baha'i. A designated 19-day period of fasting each year immediately before the Bahá’í New Year. The fasting is seen as a period of 1xbet online casino preparation and regeneration for the new year ahead.
Lent — Feb. 14-Saturday, March 30. Tradition: Christianity-Protestant, Christianity-Roman Catholic. Forty-day period — excluding Sundays — of prayer, repentance and self-denial preceding Easter.
