Carrying their god in a sedan chair, believers head out from Guantian Benevolence Temple to Longhu Temple where they ask the gods for water. 迎观音、请水路,庙宇的阵头,一大早就从官田慈圣官出发,到龙湖岩请水。
Those ceremonies offering sacrifices to the gods of water, mountain, dragon, rice and fish, in particular, fully represent the essence of the rice culture and eventually form the unique rice culture of the Dai people living along the Jinsha River. 特别是对水神、山神、龙神、谷神和鱼神的崇拜,充分体现了傣族农耕文化的精神内核,并形成了金沙江河谷傣族独特的稻作文化。
Immortal Tantalus, having committed unspeakable crimes and having stolen food from the gods, sits in a pool of crystal clear water that recedes from him each time bends to drink. 不朽的坦塔罗斯,犯下滔天罪行,并有从神偷菜,坐在一池清澈的水从他每一次弯腰后退喝。
Wine is the drink of the gods, milk the drink of babies, tea the drink of women, and water the drink of beasts. 酒是神的饮品,奶是婴儿的饮品,茶是女人的饮品,而水是野兽的饮品。
