"Every street, everyone's mouth, the first word of meeting is congratulations"... This familiar song sings people's joy and Chinese important New Year custom - New Year's Greetings.
A word of auspicious blessings, a beautiful vision, although it is an "old tooth" ceremony, but it is the most simple emotion of the Chinese. The series of activities in the Futian District New Era Civilization Practice Center (hereinafter referred to as the "Practice Center") have added a lot of new ideas to the "New Year's Greeting", keeping Chinese their sense of ceremony.
Borrow the "treasure land" to pay homage to the New Year
Embark on a journey full of energy
"Happy New Year and all the best!" On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the practice center attracted a large number of citizens to visit, and everyone's face was full of joy, and when they met people who knew each other from a distance, they warmly greeted each other. Children wear brand-new costumes, some of them also wear cute tiger hats; young people like to dress themselves in red, and the festive atmosphere is in full swing; the elderly join the ranks of "selfies" surrounded by children, and write down this picturesque and pleasant mood...
Why do people like to meet at the Practice Center on new Year's Day? The beautiful environment is the "innate advantage" - the practice center is located in Xiangmi Park, which is the first park in the Greater Bay Area to practice the new era of civilization. It makes full use of the core geographical location of Xiangmi Park, the natural environment, the internet celebrity punch card place, Shenzhen's first 5G + smart park and other advantages, and organically integrates the themes of culture, civilization and natural ecology. At the beginning of the New Year, is it not a beautiful thing to wander in the four seasons flower valley and rose garden of Xiangmi Lake and see the flowers blooming? Chinese culture, the flowers mean rich and beautiful, and during the Spring Festival, the mood of the year will have a good start. Many citizens simply set the New Year's friends party and family gathering here, a family with flowers as the background to take a family portrait, people laugh in the flowers, a happy year with the United States!
The abundance of activities is a "plus" for the Practice Center. The Four Seasons Flower Valley and the Rose Garden are natural science popularization platforms, enjoying the blooming of a hundred flowers while understanding some flower knowledge; children go to the candy playground to play freely, and parents have a happy parent-child game; electronic signs along the way play calligraphy and painting exhibitions about the Spring Festival, unconsciously accepting the influence of culture; in the lecture hall of civilization practice, the "Schematic Diagram of The Spring Festival of Beijing Normal Students" shows the colorful Spring Festival customs, attracting people to stop... Borrowing the "treasure land" of the practice center to pay homage to the New Year, you can not only harvest the good mood of "painting in the middle", but also experience a mobile civilization feast.
Learn customs from the "ancients"
Establish the roots of traditional civilization
Is new year's greeting to auspicious words? What should I do with the gesture of making a gesture during the New Year's Greeting? What should be done in addition to the New Year's Greetings during the Spring Festival? ...... In fact, the New Year is a science that condenses the Chinese civilization that has lasted for thousands of years. "If you find the New Year boring, it's because you know too little!" Cultural scholar Hu Yeqiu "woke up the dreamer with one word".
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Civilization Practice Lecture Hall of the Practice Center organized a "Ancients' 'Fancy' New Year - Sharing Meeting of Traditional Chinese Festivals and Customs", and the well-known cultural scholar Hu Yeqiu took the New Year customs as the starting point to share the traditional customs under the 24 solar terms of Chinese tradition, as well as the differences and evolutions of traditional customs in different regions and different periods, leading the public to further understand and understand traditional Chinese culture, appreciate the fun of customs and the beauty of customs.
With the change of the times, people's New Year's way is changing, but Hu Yeqiu believes that the Spring Festival, as the most important festival in Chinese, has its irreplaceable cultural significance. "Although the customs between the north and the south are different, in fact, every day before and after the Spring Festival is exquisite, and there are arrangements for what to do." Hu Yeqiu believes that modern people certainly do not need to follow the customs of the ancients to celebrate the New Year step by step, but understanding the story behind it, reliving the sense of ceremony of the New Year, and retaining the "New Year's taste" is a Chinese exclusive cultural inheritance.
Teacher Hu Yeqiu's words aroused strong resonance among the participating citizens, who lamented that "reunion is easier, but the taste of the year has become lighter", and on the other hand, they have also thought about the inheritance of cultural bloodlines. After listening to the lecture, 12-year-old Xiao Peng said happily: "I used to think that the New Year was to eat and drink, paste a couplet, and I didn't expect that there were so many exquisite and rituals. Today when my mother filmed a New Year's greeting video for me, I was still struggling with how to do the gestures, and after listening to the teacher's introduction, I knew that it was a man left and a woman on the right, and the boy should have his left hand on it, and he would never be 'timid' in the future! ”
It is worth mentioning that around the Spring Festival, The First Online and Offline Interactive "Civilization College" in China, Futian Civilization College, has also "taken a new" series of courses, many of which are related to the Spring Festival culture - Chinese traditional festival stories, the most Chinese twenty-four solar terms & the most traditional festival stories, the Spring Festival those things... New Year, long knowledge, this Spring Festival harvest can not only be weight Oh!
Borrowing "Yoshiki" sending blessing
Transmit the warmth of happiness energy
New Year's greetings are to send blessings to relatives and friends, and it is also to cheer up their own New Year. On the first day of the Chinese New Year, the "FuHu Welcomes the New Year, Nafu Warm Heart Field Blessing Drift bottle" activity organized by the Practice Center is extremely popular. People have written down the things they feel happiest in 2021 and their yearning and hope for the Year of the Tiger, so that happiness relays, circulating and passing in Futian...
"Becoming beautiful and thin and becoming rich" is the common voice of young girls; "good health, peace and longevity" is the simple wish of the elderly; "learning and progress, mother buys me an Ultraman", the children's childish wishes make people's mouths rise... Mr. Chang, a resident of Futian, solemnly wrote down his wish: "I hope that the epidemic will recede as soon as possible and I can go home to see!" "He said that because of the epidemic prevention and control and work reasons, this is the third year that he has not returned to his hometown for the New Year." Every festive season, he thinks of his relatives", his greatest hope is that the epidemic will no longer stop people from returning home for reunion, and everything will return to normal order in the New Year. People from all over the world share this sentiment, and this blessing makes the citizens who participated in the activity unanimously praise. Citizen Ms. Pang's child is about to take the middle school entrance examination this year, her wish is "the child is admitted to the ideal school", hearing this, people who have never known each other next to them have said: "Children come on, their hearts will come true!" "A wish receives a bunch of blessings, and the kindness of strangers warms people's hearts the most."
From the verbal "Great New Year's Greeting" to the "Happiness Drifting Bottle" on paper, the carrier of blessing transmission has changed, but the flowing wish has not changed. In the Year of the Tiger, may everyone live an ordinary life of brilliance, and everyone feel happiness, discover happiness, and spread happiness in the fireworks of the world.
