New Mantra of Celebrating Lohri

Monday, January 11th, 2010

Lohri is essentially an agricultural festival, filled with lots of fun. It is a major celebration in the state of Punjab & also among the Punjabi community, on the 13th of January, one day before Makar Sankranti. Lohri is celebrated to signify the last of the coldest days of winter. A bonfire is lit, and friends and relatives gather around. Singing and dancing form a basic part of the celebrations. People wear their brightest clothes and come to dance the bhangra and gidda to the beat of the dhol. Punjabi songs are sung, and everybody rejoices. A prayer is made to Agni, the god of Fire, and Prasad is distributed. The prasad comprises of five main things: til, gazak, gur, moongphali (peanuts), and phuliya or popcorn.
If there has been a happy occasion in the family, like the birth of a child or a marriage, Lohri is celebrated with much greater gusto. The happy family usually hosts a party to celebrate the first Lohri of the new child or couple & everyone eats a rich and fulfilling community dinner.
