Chhat
is a one of the most important occasions in the Bhojpur
region. People fast on this day to please 'Chhati Mata'
and sing songs in her prayer. Since it falls on the sixth
day of the month of Kartik; September-October, it has
got the name 'Chhat' (Chhati - is sixth in Hindi).
Women stand near rivers or ponds early in the morning,
singing these songs and waiting for the sun to rise. The
prayers are addressed to 'Chhati Mata' and the Sun God.
Mostly the prayer in these songs is a wish for a son or
the longevity of the son.
Chhat songs are also sung on the sixth day after a baby
boy's birth - as part of the 'Chhati puja' ceremony.
