Giovedí 17 ottobre, 2024
Buddista- Induista : A harvest festival celebrated on the full moon day of the Hindu lunar month of Ashvin (September to October), marking the end of the monsoon season.
In Odisha, on this day unmarried women keep fast with the popular belief of getting their suitable groom(kumara). This festival starts with maidens welcoming the sun god just at sunrise with a coconut-leaf-made-vessel called 'kula' filled with fried paddy containing 7 fruits like coconut, banana, cucumber, betel nut, sugar-cane, guava followed by 'Aarti'. In the evening they break their fast by preparing a dish containing the fried paddy of the morning along with the fruits, curd, and jaggery to offer the moon god before the 'tulsi' plant. After this maidens play games and sing songs under the light of the full moon. [Wikipedia]

He is the author of the epic Ramayana, based on the attribution in the text of the epic itself.[2] He is revered as the Adi Kavi, which means First Poet, for he discovered the first śloka i.e. first verse, which set the base and defined the form to Sanskrit poetry. The Yoga Vasistha is attributed to him. A religious movement called Valmikism is based on Valmiki's teachings as presented in the Ramayana and the Yoga Vasistha. Wikipedia

Cultura : An Indian tribal freedom fighter, religious leader, and folk hero who belonged to the Munda tribe. He spearheaded an Indian tribal religious Millenarian movement that arose in the tribal belt of modern-day Bihar and Jharkhand in the late 19th century, during the British Raj, thereby making him an important figure in the history of the Indian independence movement. His achievements are even more remarkable for having been accomplished before the age of 25.
His portrait hangs in the Central Hall of the Indian parliament; he is the only tribal leader to have been so honored. [Wikipedia]

Cattolica o Protestante : Festività della nascità di Gesù. dato alla luce dalla Vergine Maria, Gesù è allo stesso tempo figlio di Dio e dell'uomo. Fin dai tempi preistorici in Europa, le feste (con falò, rituali e regali) segnavano l'inizio delle giornate più lunghe. La festa romana di Saturnalia durava molti giorni nel mese di dicembre. Le tribù tedesche celebravano anche il pieno inverno con bevande e rituali. I Bulgari ( con Koleduvane) e i Polacchi (con Gwiazdka) continuano questa tradizione. Gesù nacque probabilmente in primavera( secondo i riformisti in Autunno). Nel IV secolo fu scelto il 25 Dicembre per festeggiare la nascita del Papa Giulio I (Si parla anche del vascovo Liberus nel 354 A.C.). Così, fu introdotto un elemento cristiano durante le antichissime feste d'inverno. Prima del 1852, gli Stati Papali e altre città italiane celebravano il Capodanno il giorno di Natale.

Domenica 26 gennaio, 2025
Ferie secolare : It was the Lahore Session of the Indian National Congress at midnight of December 31, 1929 - January 1, 1930, that the Tri-Colour Flag was unfurled by the nationalists and a pledge taken that every year on January 26, the Independence Day would be celebrated and that the people would unceasingly strive for the establishment of a Sovereign Democratic Republic of India. The professed pledge was successfully redeemed on January 26, 1950, when the Constitution of India framed by the Constituent Assembly of India came into force, although the Independence from the British rule was achieved on August 15, 1947. It is because of this that August 15 is celebrated as Independence Day, while January 26 as Republic Day. Il 26 gennaio dello stesso anno ottennero la promessa della celebrazione della "Festa dell'indipendenza" incitando il popolo a lottare incessantemente per l'istituzione di un Repubblica Sovrana Democratica dell'India. La festa fu definitivamente conclamata il 26 Gennaio 1950, quando l'Assemblea Costituente dell'India creò e diede potere alla Costituzione dell'India, sebbene l'Indipendenza dalla Gran Bretagna era stata dichiarata il 15 Agosto 1947.
Per questi motivi il 15 Agosto viene celebrato come Festa dell'indipendenza e il 26 gennaio come Festa della Repubblica.
