Mahavir Jayanthi is celebrated by the end of this month. One night mother Trishla is sleeping in her soft and cozy bed. Suddenly she dreams of auspicious things and gets up. She is filled with an hitherto inexperienced joy and ecstasy. She had fourteen wonderful dreams. Her dreams filled her with wonder. She never had such dreams before. She narrated her dreams to King Siddharth.

That is also the Sinhala New Year in Sri Lanka. We call it Sinhala and Hindu New Year and the whole country comes to a standstill with almost everyone on leave from work to celebrate. There are countrywide celebratins and as Sri Lanka is a small country, almost everyone irrespective of nationality and religion will join in the festivities.
