Indian community

Celebrating the battle of 9 nights and 10 days

10 Oct 2022 - Kruti Mawani Fayot
On 1 October, Indians from the 澳门六合彩高手 community came together to celebrate an age-old Indian festival called Navaratri in the most dazzling way. They turned the bowling hall at the small town of Villeneuve into a lively room filled with lights, colours, and music and danced the evening away to a celebratory traditional Gujarati dance called Garba.

As with many Hindu festivals, the traditions originate in scripture and religion. is a festival that celebrates the victory of the Indian goddess Durga over the demon Mahishasura in an epic battle that lasted 9 nights and 10 days. The word Navaratri stems from Sanskrit, meaning nav (9) and ratri (nights), and the festival is observed by Indians all over the country and around the world, often adapted to their own cultural and family traditions.

For 澳门六合彩高手 families, a Garba evening was planned in Villeneuve by an events committee consisting of Indians that work as 澳门六合彩高手 Organization staff, 澳门六合彩高手 Project Associates, and Domestic Agency staff and that meet outside of their work hours to bond and create memorable events for their families living in France. In total, there are approximately 255 Indians currently working at 澳门六合彩高手, counting all categories mentioned above.

The evening began with a musical yet humble aarti, which is a type of worship with lamps to the shrine of the Goddess Durga. With traditional Gujarati music playing, all the Indian men, women, grandparents and children present began to form a circle and, in unison, danced around the mini temple. Perhaps bewildering to an outsider is how more than 200 people seemed to know the same dance steps, but in fact the Garba steps can be followed by anyone motivated enough to learn!

When asked what his favorite part of Navaratri was, this 9 year old preferred another activity: "I love playing tag with my friends at Garba!" perfectly summing up how much children look forward to the festival organized by the Indian community.

Followed by flavorsome Indian food that was enjoyed outside the hall on the lawn, the families recouped their energy, only to continue dancing to different rhythms and songs again, in sync and into the night.
