Baisakhi Wishes
Baiskhaki or Vaishaki is an annual harvest festival that marks the beginning of the Sikh New Year. The festival is celebrated with full of enthusiasm and zest in Punjab and neighbouring states like Haryana. On this auspicious occasion, Gurudwaras are decorated and hold keertans, Sikhs take bath in river or lakes before visiting gurudwara. In some places, nagar kirtan processions and community fairs. People gather to socialise and share festive foods. Since Punjab is an agrarian state, this day holds special importance as farmers worship gods before harvest (mainly Rabi crops).
On Vaishakis, Gurudwaras are decorated and hold kirtans. Sikhs visit and bathe in rivers or lakes before visiting Gurudwaras. In some places, community fairs and nagar kirtan processions are also held and people gather to socialise and share festive foods.
People of the Sikh community celebrate Vaishaki with joy and devotion. They take early bath, wear new clothes and visit gurudwara to participate in special prayer meet. After a spiritual discourse and kirtan, prasad is distributed to the devotees. Later, people sit in rows to enjoy langar served by volunteers.
Major celebrations of Vaishaki are organised at the Golden Temple, Amritsar.

Good Friday
Good Friday commemorates the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ. It is a day of solemn reflection for followers of many Christian denominations, including Catholics, Lutherans, Anglicans and Methodists. Good Friday takes place on the Friday before Easter, so its date changes from year to year.
Many Christians observe the day with prayer, and some with fasting. In the Roman Catholic tradition, believers mark Good Friday by praying the Stations of the Cross and reciting other devotional prayers.
Good Friday marks the beginning of the end of Holy Week, which is the last week of Lent. The last three days of Holy Week are known as “Triduum,” or the “Three Days,” which commemorate Jesus’ trial, death and resurrection. Triduum begins on the evening of Holy Thursday or “Maundy Thursday” (the day before Good Friday) and ends the evening of Easter Sunday.
