‎"KARWA CHAUT "TODAY;
REASONS TO CELEBRATE "KARWA CHAUT"AMONG SOME SECTIONS OF HINDU WOMEN !
It is really surprising why so many so called educated-enlightened Hindu women observe "karwa chaut"while their respective men have no such rite to follow or observe for the longevity and well being [???] of their wives-symbolizing once again male chauvinism.I wonder what might be the main motivation for such mythological superstition one or more of the following:-
*To prove that she loves husband,all despite discord,conflict and reservations against her husband ?
*To make the husband and/or his family [in laws] happy!

*Pressure and compulsion from society and peers to follow traditional ritualism !
*The psychological fear that if she does not follow tradition with closed eyes and recite mantra and story parrot like,her hubby might be in trouble!
At least the educated person need to realize that "tradition"must not be the exclusive cause to follow superstition and whether such blind dogmas really provide any "divine benefit and benevolence" in practice and perception?
