“10th anniversary of the Ice Bucket Challenge”.
As we mark the 10th anniversary of the Ice Bucket Challenge, we reflect on the remarkable progress made in the fight against ALS/MND. Thanks to the generosity and commitment of supporters like you, significant strides have been made in understanding the disease, improving patient care, and advancing promising research initiatives.
We have used petals of Marigold flowers which are abundant in India.
In Hindu culture these flowers are used in celebrations and rituals, signifying life, vitality, and positivity. Marigolds can represent power, strength, and light, and are often linked to the sun. In Hindu weddings, marigolds represent brightness and positive energy, and are associated with Lord Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi. In Christian symbolism, marigolds are associated with the Virgin Mary, and are used in religious celebrations to honor her.Their resilience in various climates and their ability to thrive in different conditions also contribute to their strength. In Day of the Dead traditions, marigolds’ radiant colors are believed to guide the souls of the dead back to the living. Hence through this video we hope to spread positivity,radiance and strength like Marigold flowers/Sun to the ALS/MND community.
