Women's History Month is an annual observance held in the month of March to recognize and celebrate the contributions of women throughout history and contemporary society. It began in the United States in 1987 when Congress declared the month of March as Women's History Month, and it has since been celebrated in other countries as well. During Women's History Month, events and activities are organized to educate the public about the significant achievements of women in various fields, including science, technology, politics, arts, and more. It is a time to honor the contributions of women who have paved the way for future generations and to inspire young women to pursue their dreams and goals. Women's History Month also serves as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for gender equality and the need to continue working towards creating a more equitable and inclusive society. It provides an opportunity to reflect on the progress that has been made and the challenges that still exist, and to celebrate the achievements of women who have made a difference in the world. Some of the key goals of Women's History Month include: Recognizing the significant contributions of women to society: Women have played a vital role in shaping history, and Women's History Month is an opportunity to highlight the important achievements of women in various fields. Educating the public about the ongoing struggle for gender equality: Women's History Month provides a platform to raise awareness about the ongoing challenges that women face in achieving equality, such as the gender pay gap, workplace discrimination, and violence against women. Inspiring future generations of women: By highlighting the achievements of women throughout history, Women's History Month can inspire young women to pursue their dreams and break down barriers in their chosen fields. Celebrating diversity and inclusivity: Women's History Month celebrates the diversity of women's experiences and contributions across different cultures, races, and backgrounds. Throughout Women's History Month, various events and activities are organized, including lectures, panel discussions, art exhibitions, and more. Women's History Month also provides an opportunity to learn about lesser-known figures in history whose contributions have often been overlooked or marginalized due to their gender. By shining a light on these individuals, Women's History Month can help to reshape our understanding of history and inspire a more inclusive and equitable future.

शिवरात्रि का मतलब "शिव की रात" है और यह फाल्गुन मास की कृष्ण पक्ष की चतुर्दशी को मनाया जाता है। इस त्योहार का धार्मिक और सांस्कृतिक महत्व दोनों है। धार्मिक मान्यता के अनुसार, भगवान शिव ने इस रात समुद्र मंथन से निकले विष का पान करके "नीलकंठ" नाम प्राप्त किया। कुछ मान्यताओं में इसे शिव और पार्वती के विवाह की रात्रि भी माना जाता है। इस दिन भक्त लोग जागरण करते हैं, शिवलिंग पर जल, दूध, बेलपत्र और धतूरा चढ़ाते हैं और "ॐ नमः शिवाय" का जाप करते हैं। यह त्योहार अंधकार पर प्रकाश, अज्ञान पर ज्ञान और नकारात्मकता पर सकारात्मकता की विजय का प्रतीक है। शुभकामनाएँ देना इस त्योहार का एक महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है। पहले लोग एक-दूसरे को मौखिक या लिखित शुभकामनाएँ देते थे, अब डिजिटल युग में यह एक नया रूप ले चुका है। परंपरागत शुभकामनाएँ वैदिक मंत्रों या श्लोकों के साथ दी जाती हैं, जैसे "कर चरण कृपालु, भव सागर तारण।" लोग बेलपत्र, रुद्राक्ष या प्रसाद भी देते हैं। आधुनिक शुभकामनाएँ सोशल मीडिया पर ग्रीटिंग्स, GIFs और कोट्स के जरिए साझा की जाती हैं। लोग ई-कार्ड और भक्ति गीतो...
