The Makara Sankaranti is a holy occasion to pray to the Lord : Asatho maa sath

gamaya (Lead me from unreal to Real); Thamaso maa jyothir gamaya (Lead me from

darkness to Light); mruthyormaa amritham gamaya (Lead me from death to

Immortality). Festivals connected with the Moon and the Sun are celebrated in

order to drive into the minds of men the importance of mind control (Chandra or

moon is the Deity of the Mind) and of clarifying the intelligence (Surya or the

Sun is the Deity of the Intelligence). When the Sun moves Northward, that is

'Godward', the Intelligence too must proceed on the Godward path.- Baba
