Who are Kandari Chronicles?Committed to sharing knowledge, stories and commentary about the Middle East through video essays about topics such as history, folklore, society. The sharing is not strictly about relaying knowledge, but also about documenting and preserving elements of culture that in today's educational system might be challenged by oversight or struggling with potential gradual irrelevance. The commentary revolves around looking at simple realities or concepts, but with a slight change of perspective; hoping that this minute change of view, will shed new light and provide fresh understandings. A final angle is to introduce old stories but told in a modern way to grab the attention of an audience that is now challenged attention wise and expects content to be packaged in a speedier and more engaging manner.
What is Easter?Easter, or Resurrection Sunday is a festival and holiday celebrating the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. This event is described in the New Testament as having occurred on the third day of his burial after his crucifixion by the Romans at Calvary c. 30 AD. It is the culmination of the Passion of Jesus, preceded by Lent (or Great Lent), a forty-day period of fasting, prayer, and penance. Easter customs vary across the Christian world, and include sunrise services, exclaiming the Paschal greeting, clipping the church, and decorating Easter eggs (symbols of the empty tomb). The Easter lily, a symbol of the resurrection, traditionally decorates the chancel area of churches on this day and for the rest of Eastertide. Additional customs that have become associated with Easter and are observed by both Christians and some non-Christians include egg hunting, the Easter Bunny, and Easter parades.
