Do:

Light the fire with love: Gather with loved ones, offer prayers to Agni, the fire god, and watch anxieties go up in smoke. Let the crackling flames represent warmth, hope, and new beginnings.

Savor the bounty: Indulge in the traditional feast of sarson da saag, makki di roti, and sweet treats like rewari and gajak. Remember, food unites, so share generously.

Embrace the rhythm: Let your soul dance to the beats of dhol and the infectious energy of Bhangra and Gidda. Celebrate life, community, and the promise of a fruitful harvest.

Seek blessings: Offer prayers to Dulla Bhatti, the mythical hero of Lohri, and seek his blessings for fertility, prosperity, and protection.

Don’t:

Disrespect the flames: Avoid throwing plastic or harmful materials into the fire. Let it be a symbol of purification, not pollution.

Exclude anyone: This is a time for togetherness. Welcome all, regardless of background, and let Lohri be a beacon of inclusivity and love.

Indulge in excess: While feasting is encouraged, keep it mindful. Overindulgence can dampen the festive spirit and lead to discomfort.

Neglect safety: Bonfires can be dangerous. Keep children and pets at a safe distance, and follow all necessary precautions.

Remember, Lohri 2024 is more than just a festival; it’s a chance to connect with your roots, celebrate life’s blessings, and ignite your inner fire. Follow these simple tips, and may your Lohri be filled with warmth, joy, and abundant blessings from the stars above.
