Ugadi (oo-GA-dee), or Yugadi (yoo-GA-dee), is derived from the Sanskrit words yuga (age) and adi (starting) — ‘the beginning of a new age.’ The legend behind this festival is that Lord Brahma created the universe on Ugadi. It is celebrated predominantly in the southern Indian states of Telangana, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh. Like most Hindu spring festivals, Ugadi is a time for new beginnings, as the longer and brighter days invigorate and inspire hope for prosperous growth in one’s work, relationships, and spiritual practices.
