HAPPY DEEPAVALI 屠妖节快乐

屠妖节又称万灯节，庆祝光明驱走黑暗，邪不胜正的日子。是印度同胞最盛大的节庆，融合着印度数千年的宗教，神话与艺术内涵，亮灯仪式是所有印度教徒延续至今的重要仪式。

数千年后的今天，印度教徒依然用各式各样的灯火装饰屋子，彻底光明。大部分家庭还会以香油沐浴祈祷，代表洗净过去一年的晦气，迎接崭新的一年。按照习俗，一家人将换上新衣，点着油灯，在布置得亮丽的家中，共享天伦，亲友间互相拜访。

不过，最令人感觉兴趣的其实是他们米粒艺术，也是必行的风俗，作为迎宾之用，印裔同胞将用染上色彩的米粒，拼成一幅或大或小的"Kollam"铺在大门前，犹如一幅五彩地毯，其实重要性就和华人传统的门联及中秋节的月饼一样重要。 (摘自南洋商报)

Deepavali is a festival with joy and brightness for Indian, in Masean we introduce it to Non-Indian, so that every student celebrate the festival. We also invite a Indian teacher to explain the meaning of Deepavali, as well as learning some Indian Arts and Religious practice from her.
