Question

write an article on : the tribal festival of meghalaya in 100 -150 words
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Khasi, the majority tribe of Meghalaya, celebrates their indigenous festivals with traditional music and merry making. Most of their music has sounds of nature like that of a waterfall, bird calls, insect sounds, hum of bees and many more. Niam Khasi, the pre-Christian Khasi religion is monotheistic in nature. There are no fixed places of worship like a church, temple or mosque. According to Niam Khasi, each element of nature has god in it. No particular part can be held holier than the other. Khasi people’s closeness to nature is evident by their belief that man should not desecrate mother nature by their actions. There are no fixed days of worship like Friday in Muslims or Sunday in Christians, rather a Khasi can worship in one’s own house or out in the open because god resides in every element of nature. After the arrival of Christianity through Welsh missionaries, almost 85% of Khasi people have adopted Christianity, but a sizeable minority still practices Niam Khasi.
