Rishikas

Hello there! Today, I'm going to explain to you what rishikas are in a way that a 5-year-old can understand.

Have you ever heard of nuns or monks? Well, rishikas are like nuns but in the Hindu religion. They are women who dedicate their lives to learning about and practicing Hinduism. They are considered to be very important and wise people in Hinduism.

Rishikas live in special places called ashrams where they study and practice different aspects of Hinduism. They have special teachers called gurus who teach them everything they need to know about their religion. They learn about things like meditation, prayer, and yoga.

Rishikas wear special clothes called saris and they have their heads shaved. They also do a lot of good deeds like helping the poor and sick. They believe that by doing good deeds, they are doing what their gods want them to do.

In summary, rishikas are women in Hinduism who dedicate their lives to learning about and practicing their religion. They live in special places called ashrams, have special teachers called gurus, wear special clothes, and do good deeds. They are considered to be very wise and important people in their religion.
