Raksha Bandhan, a
festival of togetherness, fun, sharing and warm moments. This festival
liberates us from the boredom of daily routine and provide the much
needed time to rejuvenate the bond of love, shared by a brother and
sister. Society for the Confluence of Festivals in India (SCFI)
seeks to develop a sustainable programme that will assist the people of
modern world to understand the true essence of Raksha Bandhan :
emotionally, socially and spiritually.
As a socially responsible manifestation, Society for the Confluence
of Festivals in India endeavors to create value for the Indian
society by introducing the beauty, grace and wisdom embodied in the
various festivals of India, thereby preserving India's rich cultural
heritage. We bring unique customs, traditions and goodness of Indian
festivals to form a distinct association known as the Society
for the Confluence of Festivals in India. Through this organization,
we hope to form a mutual respect for and foster the common bond that
various Indian festivals share.
The great diversity of Indian religious beliefs is projected through
the various festivals that are celebrated in India. They arise from the
innate desire of man to seek diversion from humdrum activities that help
in symbolizing, reflecting and enriching social life in a specific
cultural setting. SCFI seeks to conserve and promote an
awareness of this rich and diversified cultural treasure amongst the
citizen of this country through various expositions that focus on the
tradition of excellence, conversing the famous legends, rituals,
mythology and philosophy of Indian Festivals and in turn facilitating an
awareness of their deeper and subtler values.
