What You Will Do
A playful approach, but very respectful of Indian spirituality in Mauritius through the visit of 2 emblematic temples, its main deities, anecdotes and the Mauritian history of slavery and commitment to the present day. Why does Shiva have a blue neck? Why should lingam be constantly watered? Why is Ganesh's right defense broken? … Maha Shivaratree, Cavadee, Ganesh Chaturti, Ganga Snan, Govinden? … What are we celebrating at these festivals? Hindu religion, Tamil religion? We also propose to attend and follow the processions or prayers on specific festival dates.
