Otherwise known in English as Oester/Easter. Today is celebrated 'he is risen. Indeed he is risen'. We went to the Greek Orthodox Cathedral in New Orleans this morning. Last night was the Pascha Liturgy, but it was raining hard and the kids and I are sick. So we didn't go. The midnight Liturgy is very Kul.
The link above is not to Pascha, but to a Buddhist blog about Christianity in Tibet. Thomas the Apostle was sent to India by the risen Christ, and the Nestorian church was all throughout central asia and china. The Malankara church of India, founded by Thomas brother of Christ, was not Nestorian, but what is today called Oriental Orthodox, along with the Copts of Egypt and Ethiopia.
