Happy Easter to all Goenkars!!! But especially to our Hindu and Muslim friends. For their benefit: This's the day that commemorates the resurrection of Christ after his death. It's the first/start of the religious year of all the Christian churches. In the early years of the church it was the only feast/celebration day. With the resurrection miracle, Christ teachings became a religion. And it represented the victory of good over evil. Easter as a religious celebration was even before Christmas and New Year. Which arrived later only in the fourth century under Emperor Constantine.
