Vacanze scolastiche :

Cattolica o Protestante : Festività della nascità di Gesù. dato alla luce dalla Vergine Maria, Gesù è allo stesso tempo figlio di Dio e dell'uomo. Fin dai tempi preistorici in Europa, le feste (con falò, rituali e regali) segnavano l'inizio delle giornate più lunghe. La festa romana di Saturnalia durava molti giorni nel mese di dicembre. Le tribù tedesche celebravano anche il pieno inverno con bevande e rituali. I Bulgari ( con Koleduvane) e i Polacchi (con Gwiazdka) continuano questa tradizione. Gesù nacque probabilmente in primavera( secondo i riformisti in Autunno). Nel IV secolo fu scelto il 25 Dicembre per festeggiare la nascita del Papa Giulio I (Si parla anche del vascovo Liberus nel 354 A.C.). Così, fu introdotto un elemento cristiano durante le antichissime feste d'inverno. Prima del 1852, gli Stati Papali e altre città italiane celebravano il Capodanno il giorno di Natale.

Ferie secolare : It was the Lahore Session of the Indian National Congress at midnight of December 31, 1929 - January 1, 1930, that the Tri-Colour Flag was unfurled by the nationalists and a pledge taken that every year on January 26, the Independence Day would be celebrated and that the people would unceasingly strive for the establishment of a Sovereign Democratic Republic of India. The professed pledge was successfully redeemed on January 26, 1950, when the Constitution of India framed by the Constituent Assembly of India came into force, although the Independence from the British rule was achieved on August 15, 1947. It is because of this that August 15 is celebrated as Independence Day, while January 26 as Republic Day. Il 26 gennaio dello stesso anno ottennero la promessa della celebrazione della "Festa dell'indipendenza" incitando il popolo a lottare incessantemente per l'istituzione di un Repubblica Sovrana Democratica dell'India. La festa fu definitivamente conclamata il 26 Gennaio 1950, quando l'Assemblea Costituente dell'India creò e diede potere alla Costituzione dell'India, sebbene l'Indipendenza dalla Gran Bretagna era stata dichiarata il 15 Agosto 1947. Per questi motivi il 15 Agosto viene celebrato come Festa dell'indipendenza e il 26 gennaio come Festa della Repubblica. www.indiaa2z.com

Buddista- Induista : Saint Kabir Das reached the abode of God in Maghar close to Gorakhpur in 1518. However, immediate dispute began regarding the way in which his final rites must be performed. It is believed that both Hindus and Muslims claimed the body to perform the funeral rites. To their utter surprise, Kabir Das stood up and asked them to lift his body and view beneath. Lying there was nothing but a beautiful array of flowers. Devotees and his followers were speechless with Hindus along with some flowers leaving to Varanasi and the rest of the flowers taken by Muslims to Maghar. [festivalsofindia]
