🌕 The Spirit of Mithila: Jhijhiya Festival झिझिया

ByRatnesh Jha April 30, 2025April 30, 2025

Celebrating Strength, Devotion, and Cultural Harmony

झिझिया is a vibrant folk tradition deeply rooted in the Mithila region, celebrated during the festival of Durgapuja or Navaratri. It blends spirituality with performance, as young girls sing devotional songs and dance with decorated clay pots (with multiple holes and a lamp inside) on their heads. The glowing light from the pot symbolizes divine power and protection from evil spirits.

Performed at night, Jhijhiya is an offering of faith and cultural pride. The rhythmic songs are accompanied by themes of strength, community unity, and feminine resilience.

At MithilaOnline, we cherish this unique tradition that combines art, prayer, and community bonding.

झिझिया: मिथिला सभ्यता के सांस्कृतिक नाच

झिझिया मिथिला आ उत्तर बिहार के लोक परंपरा अछि, जे दुर्गा पूजा या नवरात्रि के अवसर पर महिलासभ द्वारा राति में गाओल जाइत अछि। एहन समय में कन्याओं द्वारा सिर पर झरोखा वाला मटकी रखि कऽ दीप जरबैत नाचल जाइत अछि।

ई मटकी के भीतर जलैत दीप आ ओकरा में बनेल गेल छिद्र सँ निकलैत रोशनी — भक्ति, शक्ति आ देवी माँ के प्रतिनिधित्व करैत अछि। झिझिया सिर्फ नाच-गान नहि, बल्कि स्त्रीशक्ति, सुरक्षा आ एकजुटता के प्रतीक थीक।

मिथिला ऑनलाइन पर हम एहन लोक सांस्कृतिक परंपरा के सम्मान दैत छी, जे आत्मा सँ जुड़ल होइत अछि।
