 Hindu
Swayamsevak Sangh USA (HSS) announces its fourth year of an offering
(“yajna”)
of one million Sun Salutations, known as Surya Namaskar, to create
awareness about Yoga and its advantages in achieving a healthy body,
mind
and spirit.
Surya
Namaskar integrates simple Yoga postures
of well-balanced movements in 10-steps that along with easy breathing technique
can provide immense health benefits to both body and mind. Therefore, “Surya
Namaskar Yagna” is also rightly, termed as “Health for Humanity” marathon.
Each
year Hindus worldwide celebrate January 14th as Makar Sankranti – a day that
marks a change of season as the sun enters the sign of Capricorn or
Makar. Makar Sankranti ushers in longer days; thus the festivity
symbolizes sunshine in life. Therefore, to mark this occasion, HSS will
conduct a collective Surya Namaskar Yajna from January 16th to January 31st, 2010. |

 Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS), USA 501(c) (3) Non-profit is celebrating Universal Oneness Day during the month of August all over the US.
This event is a part of the festival of Raksha Bandhan. The word "Raksha" in Sanskrit means "to protect" and "bandhan" means obligation. Centuries ago during challenging times in Indian history when India faced numerous invasions, sisters used to tie a simple thread on their brother's wrist, reminding him of his responsibility to protect her. Over the years this celebration evolved from individual "brother-sister" relationship to "individual-societal" relationship and the responsibilities of individual towards society across all of its sections.
Working in that direction, volunteers of the HSS chapter of Arkansas got an opportunity to meet with Mayor of Fayetteville Mr. Lioneld Jordan on August 13, 2009 at 2.00 PM. The Meeting lasted for 30 minutes. |
