"Ka Phniang Ka Pjei" ka dei ka kmie ne kiba haïing hasem kiba dang dei na kajuh ka jait ne ka kur; u thied u symbai.
"Ka Phniang Ka Pjei" is the mother or the relatives who are from the same clan. The phrase also means the root and the seed.
"Ka Phniang Ka Pjei" reiterates the significance of the mother and clan in the Khasi community. Mother, clan, root and seed become beautifully synonymous 🙏🌾🌱🌲
Wallam says:
Ka Shad Suk Mynsiem is celebrated in the month of April as a thanksgiving to mother nature for good harvest and for fresh sowing of seeds. Both men and women participate in the dance where the steps of women are subtle, whereas those of men are more energetic. Men play a part of protectors for the women who are inside the outer circle. Ka Shad Suk Mynsiem dance is also symbolic of women's fertility where they are receptacles of seeds and bearers of fruit, and men are cultivators who plant, cultivate and nurture the seeds until they are harvested.
