NDB Wealth invites everyone to celebrate the joy and abundance of Thai Pongal, the first harvest of the season in its full measure.
This traditional festival dating back over 2,000 years is commemorated with the boiling of the first rice grown in the New Year, and is marked by Tamils in Sri Lanka and all around the world. Homes are spruced and decorated, new clothes are bought and gifts are exchanged among friends and family as they gather together to partake in activities like cooking “Pongal” sweet rice and drawing intricate and colorful rice flour patterns at the entrances of their homes.
“Thai Pongal has a key cultural and religious significance for Hindus as it marks the return of the Sun following a six-month long period, signaling a prosperous and bountiful New Year to come. It is the season to let go of the old and herald the new, and in particular new thoughts and ideas that allow people to enter into prosperous times”, commented Dilan Jayakody, Assistant Vice President- Head of Retail Sales.
