Jagran

Jāgran( जागरण ) or jāgrata ( जागरता ) or jaag is a Hindu ritual, consisting of all-night vigil, songs and dance in honour of a deity and puja. Often, jagran is performed in honour of various Hindu goddesses (Devi), Shiva as well as various folk deities like Khandoba and Devnarayan. Devotees worship the deity throughout night by singing bhajans, reciting aarti and listening to legends of the deity.
