Preparations For Pongal Thaipusam In Full Swing In Malaysia


 
T. Tharshini, 26, looks at clay pots while shopping in preparation for the Pongal festival at B. Mathavon Stores Sdn Bhd in George Town January 11, 2022. — Bernama picKUALA LUMPUR, Jan 12 — Preparations are in full swing for the Pongal harvest festival and Thaipusam which are drawing near.
A Bernama check around Little India, Brickfields found that the essential items for the pongal celebration, such as clay pots, sugarcane, milk and turmeric were selling like hot cakes, while yellow clothes for Thaipusam which will be celebrated on January 18 were also high in demand.
Flower seller, M. Visakama, 34, said orders for flower garlands keep coming and she has her hands full preparing them.
“I received many orders for flower garlands ahead of the Pongal and Thaipusam celebrations,” she told Bernama today.
For fresh milk seller, R. Thanen, 27, the demand was higher this year as both festivals are celebrated in the same month.
Pongal falls in the 10th month of the Tamil calendar, called Thai, and is a major celebration, especially for the farming community.
On this day, the Tamil community will prepare the Pongal (sweet rice) and offer thanksgiving prayers to Surya Bhagavan (the Sun God), the earth, and the cow.
The day after Thai Ponggal is Mattu Pongal which is dedicated to cows, while on the third day of the Ponggal celebration, known as Kanni Ponggal, young ladies pray for a good life and a great husband.
On the other hand, Thaipusam is a festival celebrated by Hindus around the world in the month of ‘Thai’ which is the 10th month in the Tamil calendar, to commemorate the event where Lord Murugan received the sacred spear from his mother Goddess Parvati, to eliminate the evil demon, Soorapadman, and restore prosperity and human well-being.
Meanwhile, Malaysia Hindu Sangam president Datuk RS Mohan Shan said that this year, the auspicious times to prepare the sweet rice are between 7.30am to 10.25am and from 6.30pm to 9pm for those who do not have the opportunity to hold Pongal in the morning.
However, he said it is advisable to have Pongal in the morning.
Mohan also urged the Tamil community to celebrate Ponggal at home, in view of the current pandemic situation.
“Devotees attending the Pongal celebrations held at temples should ensure that they comply with the standard operating procedures set,” he said. — Bernama
