If we move to the second week of 2025, China celebrates the Laba Festival (腊八节), a traditional holiday that represents the beginning of Chinese New Year preparations. On this day, the Chinese are preparing Laba Congee, a special porridge combining various grains, dried fruits and nuts. This

The nourishing mixture symbolizes harmony, prosperity and happiness – with any component representing the diversity and burning of life. This traditional practitioner dates back to the time when Buddha reached enlightenment after the consumption of rice porridge, making it a symbol of material and spiritual nutrition. The festival, which occurs on the eighth day of the twelfth monthly month, refers to countdowns to the spring festival, the most important traditional holiday family meeting and the restoration of China.
