Hindus worship the sun during the Indian Hindu festival of Chatt Puja. Chatt Puja is the only occasion where the setting sun is worshipped and considered to be one of the most rewarding fasts and pujas. Celebrated twice a year, the sun gives as much significance since it is the sustainer of life and becomes God in the Hindu way of life. India. November 16, 2007.
