What the day is

Savitri argues with Yama for her husband's life and wins — by argument, not by pleading. The banyan is worshipped because it outlives everyone who sits under it.

How to keep Vat Savitri

One act for the day

Sit under an old tree. Water it. Ask what you would refuse to accept as final.
