λίγο πανηγύρι και λίγο συγκέντρωση (διαδήλωση) Explanation: Τα μελά στην Ινδία είναι κάτι σαν φεστιβάλ, που θυμίζουν πολύ τα πανηγύρια που κάνουν οι δικές μας εκκλησίες. Το πιο γνωστό είναι το Κούμπα Μελά: Sacred site festivals in India, called melas, are a vital part of the pilgrimage tradition of Hinduism. Celebrating a mythological event in the life of a deity or an auspicious astrological period, the melas attract enormous numbers of pilgrims from all over the country. The greatest of these, the Kumbha Mela, is a riverside festival held four times every twelve years, rotating between Allahabad at the confluence of the rivers Ganges, Yamuna and the mythical Saraswati; Nasik on the Godavari; Ujjain on the Sipra; and Hardwar on the Ganges. Bathing in these rivers during the Kumbha Mela is considered an endeavor of great merit, cleansing both body and spirit. The Allahabad and Hardwar festivals are routinely attended by five million or more pilgrims (13 million visited Allahabad in 1977,18 million in 1989, and nearly 24 million in 2001) thus the Kumbha Mela is the largest religious gathering in the world. It may also be the oldest. Τώρα, αν σου κάθεται άσχημα και βουλγκάρ να πεις πανηγύρι, μπορείς κάλιστα να πεις "έκθεση". Πάντως "πανηγύρια" είναι. |
