Reading Comprehension Water-splashing Festival is a traditional festival of the Dai, Achang, De 'ang, Bulang and Wa nationalities in southwest China, and it is an interesting water-splashing festival of the Dai people over the years.
Water-splashing Festival is a traditional custom of which minority? Songkran Festival is the biggest festival of Dai people, and it is also the most influential festival with the largest number of participants in ethnic festivals. Songkran Festival is the Dai New Year, which is equivalent to the middle of April in Gregorian calendar. This festival usually lasts for 3 to 7 days. On the first day, the Dai language was called "Mairi", which was similar to the Chinese New Year's Eve. The next day, the Dai language is called "angry day" (empty day); The third day is the first day of the New Year, and it is called "Overlord Horse", which is actually the beginning of a year. People think this day is the most beautiful and auspicious day. In the early morning of the festival, Dai men, women and children put on festive costumes and carried clear water. They first went to the Buddhist temple to bathe the Buddha, and then began to splash water on each other to wish each other luck, happiness and health. People are dancing and shouting "water! Water! Water! " The sound of gongs and drums soared into the sky, and the water of blessing splashed everywhere. The scene is really spectacular.
The Songkran Festival originated in India and was once a religious ceremony of Brahmanism in India. After being absorbed by Buddhism, it was introduced into the Dai area of Yunnan through Myanmar, with a history of 700 years from the end of13rd century to the beginning of14th century. With the increasing influence of Buddhism spread to the south in Dai areas, the valley study of Water-splashing Festival has become more and more extensive. Water-splashing Festival is a celebration of the Dai New Year, which usually lasts from April 13 to April 15 in the solar calendar. At that time, people will go to the Buddhist temple to bathe the Buddha first, and then splash water on each other to express their sincere wishes. Laughing everywhere, full of festive atmosphere.
April 13 every year is the Songkran Festival in Thailand. Gan Song is Sanskrit, which means "the sun moves to Aries, which is the beginning of a new solar year". The Songkran Festival lasts for three days and is the hottest time of the year in Thailand. Clean the house and burn old clothes before the festival to avoid bad luck. On the day of the festival, sand towers should be piled in the temple, colorful flags should be inserted and flowers should be presented to pray for a bumper harvest. In the evening, the perfume soaked in petals is sprinkled on the arms and backs of the elders to express their best wishes to the elders; Afterwards, the elders showered water on the heads of the younger generation to show their blessings.
De 'ang people also celebrate the Songkran Festival. On the seventh day after Tomb-Sweeping Day, the most distinctive custom of the De 'ang People's Songkran Festival is to wash the hands and feet of the elders, in addition to splashing water for blessing and dancing elephant drums. At that time, the younger generation of each family should prepare a pot of hot water and put it in the center of the hall, invite their parents and other elders to come out and sit in the hall, kowtow to them and ask them to forgive their filial piety in the past year. The elders should also review what they have not done enough in the past year to set an example for the younger generation. Then, the younger generations wash their hands and feet for their elders and wish each other a harmonious and hardworking atmosphere in the coming year. If parents die, brothers and sisters, sister-in-law and brother-in-law will all become the objects of washing hands and feet. This custom comes from an old legend: On the seventh day after Tomb-Sweeping Day died, a disobedient son worked in the mountains. Seeing the scene of young birds feeding back, he realized something and decided to treat his mother well. At this time, his mother was preparing to come to the mountain to deliver food to her son and accidentally slipped. Her son came to help her, but she thought his son had come to hit her and ran into a tree. My son is very regretful. He cut down the tree and carved it into a statue of his mother. Every year, on the seventh day after Tomb-Sweeping Day's death, he would wash the statue in warm water sprinkled with petals. Later it evolved into a custom.

The majority of De 'ang people live on rice, and some areas live on corn and potatoes. They are all eaten by steaming and stewing, and they are good at making various foods, such as pea powder, tofu, rice flour, rice cakes, Baba, jiaozi and so on. There are many kinds of vegetables, and bamboo shoots are one of the vegetables that can be eaten all year round. Except fresh, most of them are processed into sour bamboo shoots or dried bamboo shoots. The consumption habit of other vegetables is to stir-fry with sour bamboo shoots. Sour bamboo shoots are widely used, even when stewing chicken, frying meat or cooking fish, they should be seasoned with sour bamboo shoots. Influenced by the local Han nationality, many Chinese pickles and fermented bean curd are also common side dishes on the dining table of De 'ang nationality. De 'ang people have a long history of growing tea. Tea is not only a standing drink for De 'ang people, but also the best gift for relatives and friends.

For example, on festivals such as Water-splashing Festival, Harvest Festival, Opening Festival and burning white firewood, we should respect Buddha. On the opening day, a "Geting Festival" will be held in villages with temples. On the day of burning white firewood, every household will kill chickens and prepare wine, and the whole village will get together for a meal. Each family will also make various glutinous rice cakes, wrap them in banana leaves, steam them and give them to each other to taste each other's flavor. Newlyweds will bring sugared rice cakes to the village leaders and elders' homes to worship. De 'ang people also have ceremonies such as ancestor worship hall, village gods, land gods, dragons and girls, among which Dragon Boat Festival is the most interesting. Usually in the spring, when it is time to kill pigs and chickens, the priests will draw paper dragons, and everyone will bow together, then have a drink and picnic together, and beat and scold each other after getting drunk to vent their usual dissatisfaction. No one is allowed to dissuade you here until both sides are exhausted and apologize to each other the next day.

In the evening, young men and women get together to play melodious cucurbit silk and sing songs.
2. Water-splashing Festival
It is an annual traditional festival of De 'ang people. On the morning of the ceremony, people put on festive costumes, carried clear water on their backs, brought prepared food and held bunches of flowers in their hands, and gathered in the Buddhist temple (Square Wood) in the village to celebrate the festival. The ceremony was presided over by the venerable elders in the village and delivered a congratulatory message. After the toast, the boys rang the elephant foot drum and danced the elephant foot drum dance; Young women joined the drums and danced "sand dance". Others hold bamboo barrels in their hands, hold them above their heads, and pour water into the water tanks carved with dragons and painted with phoenixes in turn to bathe the Buddha statue symbolizing the incarnation of the Buddha, which means remembering the kindness of their ancestors and wishing a good weather in the coming year. In the meantime, people are still carrying empty bamboo tubes, scrambling to pick up the water dripping from the Buddha statue, or drinking it into their stomachs, or washing their faces and hands to show good luck in the coming year. After the Songkran Festival ceremony, people began to put their own food on the big plate for the Buddha statue, recite the sacrificial words in unison, and then let the people who participated in the Songkran Festival taste it wholeheartedly. Afterwards, guided by the Elephant Foot Drum Team, people lined up to fetch water from wells, springs and rivers to celebrate the festival. There are strict rules for splashing water. On the first day, you can only water the Buddha statue, and then wash your hands for the Buddha and the monk. Don't throw water on yourself, and don't throw water on each other. Early the next morning, young men, women or children, carrying bamboo buckets, went to their elders' homes to wash their hands and faces, which meant thanking them for their dedication and wishing them health and longevity. From the third day, we splashed water on each other and blessed each other.
3. "Living in the Rain" Festival
Also known as "closing day". It was in the sixth month of the lunar calendar, when monks gathered in the Buddhist temple to observe the precepts, and the Buddha announced the ceremony. On this day, De 'ang people should prepare money, banners, flowers and other offerings to the Buddhist temple, worship the Buddha statue, listen to the Buddha chanting, and dance with gongs and drums for three nights at night. For the next three months, monks were forbidden to leave the temple, and De 'ang people were not allowed to go far away, to build houses, to string together women and to get married.
4. "Living in the Rain" Festival
Also known as "opening day". In August of the lunar calendar, monks gathered in the Central Buddhist Temple to hold a religious ceremony of "Peace after Rain". The elders of De 'ang people will go to temples to listen to scriptures, give alms and worship Buddha statues, and young men and women will beat gongs and drums to get God's blessing. After that, monks can enter and leave the temple without restriction; People can also travel far away, build houses, string girls, hold weddings and so on.
5. "Make a pendulum"
The date is uncertain, which is generally determined according to the fund accumulation of village collectives and individuals. It is held every three to five years for two days. Every believer or village collective can host "posing". If the whole village is "putting on a show", everyone will save money to go to the temple to worship Buddha, pay tribute, and give up their work. If an individual is "putting on a show" alone, the host must invite others to participate and perform merits. "pendulum" means to pray for the safety of people and animals in the whole village or at home, to eliminate disasters and solve problems, and to have good weather in the coming year.
6. Burning white wood
"Burning white firewood" is during the Buddha Festival, which is 65438+February 65438+April in Gregorian calendar every year. That night, a 5-meter-high white wooden tower was built in the square outside the village and set on fire. De 'ang people think that the cold season has arrived, and they are afraid that the Buddha will catch cold, so they need to burn white wood to warm the Buddha, drive away the cold and increase the warmth.
