Father’s Day Celebration

Friday, June 17, 2011

Father’s Day is celebrated on 3rd Sunday in June. This is a day of commemoration and celebration of Dad - the special man in our life. The word 'Father' is often used to honor spiritual leaders, inventors and originator of an idea, product, service or person. It is so, that fathers have always been associated with guidance and protection, as the person who can be loved, respected and looked up to.

India is one blessed nation with many such great fathers, queuing up from Vasudeva, who though was not Lord Krishna’s biological father, but Lord Krishna was called with his name as Vasudev Shree Krishna. Coming down the line is Humanyun, who surrendered his own life just to save his son, Akbar’s life, who then was on the verge of deathbed. Though Humanyun had to give up his life, but he left after him the most promising Mughal Emperor-Akbar- The Great.

Father's Day has become a day to not only honour your father, but all men who act as a father figure. Stepfathers, uncles, grandfathers, and adult male friends are all honoured on Father's Day.
