National Aviation Day 2025

Tuesday, August 19, 2025

Why we celebrate National Aviation Day?

In 1939, President Franklin Roosevelt announced on August 19th National Aviation Day. The holiday coincides with the birthday of Orville Wright, who piloted the Wright Flyer. He and his brother Wilbur created the first plane in the world. On December 17, 1903, Orville Wright made the first flight in 12 seconds and 120 feet around the site of the Wright Brothers National Memorial. They were not the first to create and fly an experimental aircraft, but they were the first to invent aircraft control systems that made the fixed wing and flight possible.

What Do People Do?

Every year the president gives a festive speech. The flag of the country is hung out, air events are held. On this day, some schools organize festivals on the subject of aviation: a discussion of the history of aviation, the fulfillment of tasks for creating interactive airplanes. Aviation lovers and students can visit museums about the history and technology of aviation. Some people visit the Wright Brothers National Memorial in North Carolina.

How to Celebrate?

National Aviation Day is considered a federal holiday, but in the United States it is not a public holiday. Schools and public organizations work in the usual way.

Why we celebrate Assumption of Mary?

On the day of the Assumption of Mary, the following events are celebrated: the death of Mary and the ascension of her body to heaven. According to the official teachings of the church, after death, Mary was taken by body and soul to heaven. In 1950, Pope Pius Xll preached that Mary “after the completion of her earthly life was accepted by body and soul to the glory of heaven.”

The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is an important holiday for Christians. In the Catholic Church, The Assumption of Mary is one of the 4 Marian dogmas. In the Eastern Orthodox Church, this day is called the Dormition of the Mother of God. It is known from ancient sources that Jesus, along with angels and righteous souls, came to the resting place of the Mother. He took her soul and body or resurrected her, and they went to heaven together. Many Christians took this as a hope and an example of sending the soul to heaven, for a righteous life.

Raksha Bandhan 2025

Friday, August 08, 2025

Why we celebrate Raksha Bandhan?

The name of the holiday comes from two words: Raksha means “protection”, and bandhan means “to bind”. In Indian history, shakhi were used to fortify kingdoms and create alliances. One of the oldest stories associated with Rakhis was when Alexander the Great launched an invasion of the Indian subcontinent in 326 BC. They say that when they met with the powerful king Porus, Alexander’s wife went to Porus and tied Rakhi’s hand to him to ensure the safety of her husband.

What Do People Do?

Raksha Bandhan is a celebration dedicated to brothers and sisters. Since the concept of love and duty between sisters and brothers is universal, therefore Raksha Bandhan is popular among many cultures of India and not only. Brothers and sister gather this day at the same table. A sister ties a rakhi on her brother’s right wrist, which symbolizes their emotional connection. Raksha Bandhan also celebrate friends. Rakhi itself is a silk dressing with gold and silver threads, decorated with sequins and semiprecious stones.

How to Celebrate?

Raksha Bandhan is an ancient Hindu festival, also called Rakhi Purnima. It is celebrated on the full moon of the Hindu month Shravana. Raksha Bandhan is a public holiday in the following regions: Gujarat, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh.

Why we celebrate Eid al-Adha?

Eid al-Adha is a Muslim holiday that starts at the sunset of the previous day. The date of celebration is different in countries, depending on the calendar used. Eid al-Adha is considered a universal Muslim holiday commemorating the sacrifice made by the Prophet Ibrahim. Ibrahim showed a willingness to sacrifice his son Ishmael, but his son was replaced by a lamb by Allah.

What Do People Do?

Every year, 10 numbers of Muslims around the world are celebrated by Eid al-Adha. On this day a lamb, a goat, a camel are killed in order to honor the sacrifice of Ibrahim. The feeling of generosity and gratitude paints this holiday. The festival is designed to make the Muslim more virtuous in their affairs. This does not mean only the offering of sacrifice, but also the extraction of hidden lessons of freedom from selfish desires and elevating the Muslim from everything dirty.

How to Celebrate?

In different countries, Eid al-Adha holiday is celebrated in different ways. In Pakistan, it is celebrated for several days. The date Id-ul-Azha is established by the Central Committee of Ryuet-i-Hilal, which meets to make a decision on observing the Zul-Haj moon. In the Philippines, Eidul Adha has been a public holiday since 2002. According to the Law of the Republic No. 9849, the tenth day of Dhu al-Hija or the twelfth month of the Islamic calendar is declared a national holiday. The date is set by proclamation each year, usually issued about a week before the date.According to the legislative base in Saudi Arabia, public holidays are considered public, starting on the fifth day of Dhu al-Hija and ending at the end of the fifteenth day of the same month. In Turkey, the holiday is known as Kurban Bayramy and is the most important religious holiday of the year, which lasts 4 days. In India, the festival is known as Bakrid.

 Why we celebrate Tisha B’Av?

Tisha B’Av – Jewish post Av, during which they pray, mourn and remember the destruction of the temples of Jerusalem. The Jewish people observe fasting after the restoration of the first temple in 586. During the Tisha B’Av period, Jews recall other calamities that they experienced during their history of existence. Fasting begins at sunset the previous day and lasts more than 24 hours. This is the culmination of a three-week period of mourning. Weddings and other parties are not held during this period.

Why we celebrate Day of Arafat?

Day of Arafat is the second day of pilgrimage, which precedes the main Islamic holiday, Eid ul-Adha. The holiday itself falls on the 9th day of Dhu al-Hija, the twelfth and last month in the Islamic calendar.

What Do People Do?

Day of Arafat begins with an early Muslim pilgrimage to Mina, located near the slope of Mount Arafat and the Arafah plain. It was here that Muhammad delivered his farewell sermon in 632. Hajj is an annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca.The state of the ability to perform the hajj is called istitah, and the Muslim who fulfills this condition is called mustati. Hajj is considered the largest annual gathering of people in the world. The Quran tells how God asked the prophet Ibrahim to sacrifice his son as a test of his faith. When the prophet prepared to submit to the will of God, the devil tried to dissuade him, and the prophet Ibrahim threw stones at the devil.This act is repeated by pilgrims in the hajj, who throw stones at symbolic columns. A portion of the hajj is regarded as equal in the eyes of God. On this day, men are wrapped in two equal pieces of white fabric, and women’s clothing is chosen so that only arms and legs are visible.

How to Celebrate?

Unlike other Islamic rites, there is no gender segregation in Hajj. Men and women are allowed to stand nearby. This day is considered a weekend to Mecca, but some companies operate in the usual way.

Why we celebrate Rath Yatra?

Rath Yatra is a regional holiday celebrated in India, Odishe. The celebration falls on the second day after the new moon in the month of Ashadha – this is the end of June or the beginning of July. The holiday is marked by the organization of big chariots, which are pulled along the streets to commemorate the annual journey of Lord Jagannath, his brother Lord Balabhadra and their sister Subhadra to their aunt’s temple, the temple of Gundich. He is in Puri.  The holiday has been celebrated since the 12th century. Jagannatha means “Lord of the Universe” and is a deity worshiped in the regional traditions of Hinduism and Buddhism in India and Bangladesh. Hindus consider Jagannath to be a form of Vishnu. In the past, people often threw themselves under the wheels of chariots in order to achieve salvation. The chariot itself for Jagannath has a height of 14 meters (45 feet) and an area of ​​11 meters (35 feet). Construction takes about two months. Artists and artists of Puri adorn chariots with bright colors with religious motifs.

What Do People Do?

The chariots stop in the temple of Gundich for a week and then return to the Jagannath temple through the Mausi Maa temple. Here the poor people hear the cake. Similar festivals are held in other parts of India, including Bangladesh, but the most solemn events are held in Puri.

How to Celebrate?

Rath Yatra is a large annual festival celebrated on the Hindu lunar calendar. It currently falls in the months of June or July according to the Gregorian calendar. This day is working in some countries, but in India it is a day off.
