雖然日前才正是中國玉林惡名昭彰的狗肉節,讓人不忍目睹我們的狗狗朋友都面臨了什麼事情。但轉換個場景在尼泊爾,有個為期5天的提哈節 (Tihar),每天都會有不同崇拜的對象,其中一個對象,就是人類最好的朋友:狗狗。

跟印度的排燈節 (Diwali) 有點像,大約在每年10月至11月,參與盛會者會崇敬神明,也會崇敬他們的動物,包括烏鴉、牛、或是狗狗。

狗狗被認為是死神閻羅Yamaraj的信使,在儀式中,他們會給狗狗戴上花環、吃特殊的點心,尊崇他們的忠誠還有與人類的連結。

他們會在狗狗身上灑上顏料粉,也會挨家挨戶地唱歌跳舞給狗狗聽、並用蠟燭點亮每個夜晚。

雖然狗狗被灑上花朵還有粉末感覺會超想打噴嚏,但有點心可以吃絕對是何樂不為呀!

感謝你啊,小可愛!
