I wish all my family and friends in Sri Lanka, here in Canada and around the world a very Happy & Prosperous SRI LANKAN NEW YEAR!!! - ඔබ සැමට සුබ නව වසරක් වේවා... - உங்கள் எல்லோருக்கும் இனிய புத்தாண்டு வாழ்த்துக்கள்... - Sri Lankan New Year: Sri Lankan new year predominantly marks the ending period of the agricultural harvest and the beginning of the Spring (rainy) season. This auspicious time of celebration is observed in Sri Lanka as well as Tamil Nadu, South India. The event usually lasts for seven days but the actual observance depends upon the Hindu/Buddhist lunar calendar, which usually falls either on April 13 or 14 of any given year, a public holiday. - Sri Lankan New Year is basically a festival mutually celebrated by Sinhalese Buddhists and Tamil Hindus residing in Sri Lanka. - During this time, the homes are whitewashed, decorated with lights, and new clothes are also worn. However, domestic rituals like lighting the fire, making a kiri (milk rice) bath and exchanging gifts can be easily met upon. - By leaving the house gates open all come to streets to indulge in customary preparations. In this way, everyone feels truly blessed and settles down with a hope to celebrate the coming year with great joy. - #HappySriLankanNewYear2020 #SinhalaNewYear2020 #TamilNewYear2020 #HarvestFestival2020🌾🌸🌴🥥🍯 https://www.instagram.com/p/B-6A97mjm5t988oUxgTcsFi04DtFhvo4vHDqYw0/?igshid=10ie7436ofd90
