Short Essay on Vishu 

The festival of Vishu is celebrated primarily in the state of Kerala. This festival marks the beginning of the traditional solar year. Vishu is generally celebrated in the month of April. It symbolises renewal, prosperity and hope. 

It is popularly believed that the first sight on Vishu morning sets the tone for the rest of the year. Thus, people wake up early and witness the ‘Vishukkani’, an arrangement of auspicious items like rice, fruits, flowers, coins and sacred texts, all displayed beautifully in front of deities. The sight of Vishukkani is believed to bring blessings and prosperity for the entire year.

An important part of Vishu is the observation of “Vishukkaineetam,” where elders give money and gifts to younger members of the family, signifying blessings for a prosperous future. 

Traditional feasts called Vishu Sadhya are prepared on Vishu. They feature a variety of mouthwatering dishes served on a banana leaf. 

Vishu is also a time for cultural festivities, with communities organising colourful processions, traditional performances and competitions. 

Furthermore, Vishu is a time for introspection and spiritual reflection, as people visit temples and offer prayers for prosperity and well-being. The day is marked by a sense of reverence and gratitude towards the divine for the blessings bestowed upon them.
