New Year s Day in the Tibetan calendar is the most important festival of the people

The most important festival of the Tibetan people is probably the Tibetan New Year, which is as important as the Spring Festival.

Hello, what is the Tibetan festival? The Tibetan calendar is the most important festival of the Tibetan people, and the Tibetan language is called "Losa", which means "New Year".

It starts from the first month of the first month of the Tibetan calendar every year and generally lasts for one week. For the sake of solemnity, people begin preparations for the New Year from the beginning of the twelfth month of the Tibetan calendar. Every household cultivates barley seedlings and places them on the tea table of the Buddha shrine to wish a bumper harvest of grain in the New Year.

In mid-December, each household deep-fried the fruit with ghee and flour. Approaching the end of the year, each family should prepare a grain bucket, which is filled with butter mixed with tsamba, fried wheat grains, ginseng fruits and other foods, inserted barley ears and two colored flower boards, and prepare a sheep's head made of colored ghee to show that the coming year is smooth and rainy, and the people and animals are prosperous. Two days before Chinese New Year's Eve, the house was cleaned inside and out, new card mats were placed, and New Year's pictures were pasted.

Before dinner on the 29th, on the wall in the middle of the stove room, sprinkle "eight auspicious micro" with dry flour. Symbols of eternity are painted with lime powder on the gate to express congratulations and good luck. In the evening, the whole family eats dough tuba (similar to dumplings), which symbolizes reunion.

Tibetans in Yunnan wrap individual dough tubali with stones, chili peppers, charcoal, wool, etc. Each of them has a specific meaning, such as eating the dough stuba wrapped in stones, indicating that he has a hard heart in the new year; And the one who eats the dough wrapped in wool indicates that he is soft-hearted; Charcoal indicates a black heart; Chili pepper means mouth like a knife. It is a kind of food and entertainment activity, and whoever eats something must be spit out on the spot, which often causes laughter and adds to the festive atmosphere.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the whole family wakes up early, dresses up carefully, and then lights an offering lamp to worship the gods. Then everyone sat down in order of eldest and youngest, and the elders brought a bucket of grains, grabbed a few grains from each draft, and threw them into the air to show their respect, and then each person grabbed a little more and sent it to their mouths. The elders wish everyone "Tashi Delek" (auspicious wishes) in turn, and the younger generations wish "Tashi Delek Pongsongcuo" (auspicious wishes, complete merits).

After the ceremony, everyone ate the ginseng fruit mixed with cereal toba and ghee, and toasted and congratulated each other. In some Tibetan areas, when they get up on the morning of the first day of the new year, everyone sells a kind of barley wine with brown sugar and milk, called "Guan Dian". According to the traditional habits of the Tibetan people, it is forbidden to sweep the floor, say unlucky words, and visit each other on the first day of the new year.

From the second day of the Lunar New Year, family and friends congratulate each other to celebrate the New Year. On the fifteenth day of the first month of the Tibetan calendar, religious pujas are held in most Tibetan areas.
