The word “Lohri”comes from “Tilohri”.
Til is sesame and Rorhi means Gur or Jaggery.
I am sure many of you would not have heard about Tilohri just like me.
Our ancestors believed that these 2 foods i.e til and gur helps to detox and cleanse the body and kept them warm in the harsh months of December and January.
These foods also help to keep the metabolic fire burning which slows down in winters.
Let’s dance to the beats of Dhol and replenish our body, mind and soul.
