People today are unaware about the significance of the celebration of this New Year, which is based on the moon (lunar calendar). The calendar that we follow today is the English Calendar, which celebrates the New Year on 1st January. The Nav Varsh celebrations were marked with fervour all over the country. The divine events commenced with the chanting of Ved Mantras, followed by Havan Yagna, keeping up with the tradition of the sages. The events also included cultural dance performances by both adults and children. Some of the programs also included debates on the spiritual and scientific significance of the Lunar New Year and the difference between the solar and lunar calendars was explained in details. Many branches also included plays conveying the cultural significance of this occasion. Inspirational sermons by devoted disciples helped enlighten the minds of the masses and facilitated them to understand and appreciate our cultural heritage.

The events also included exhibitions on the social programs run by DJJS and stalls of spiritual literature by the organisation. This gave the masses an opportunity to understand the vision of DJJS better.
