Pongal — पौराणिकी कथा

According to tradition, Pongal marks the end of the winter solstice and the Sun's northward journey (Uttarayana). The festival is linked to the legend of Lord Shiva sending his bull Nandi to earth with the message to bathe and eat once a month; Nandi mistakenly said daily, leading to the need for abundant harvest.
