For the first time when I heard that we are going tour tpo Dhading for 2 days I was so excited that when I reached my home I immediately asked permission to my father. He told me to go and he tell some interesting things about Dhading. After listening that I was so much excited and I was waiting for friday. Finally the day came on that day I woke up early in the morning and I went to my friend house. After that we went to school. At school most of the students have already arrived. We clicked some photos in school. We started our journey at 11:00 am. There were altogether 40 students and 4 teachers who were going. We sang a song and dance at bus. We eat samosa at bus. I have a lot of fun at bus. We reached there at 3:15.


After reaching the resort at nearly 4;30 we had our snacks. The food was not as great as expectations. Then after a 5 minute rest we went for a hike. That hike was the best. It didn't even gave me the feeling of exhaustiveness even for a minute. That hike was one of the best part of my trip. After a five minute walk there comes a bridge AKA jhulunge pul. In this bridge we almost spent half an hour or so. 

The view from the bridge was over the top. The sound of the river accompanied by the chirps of the birds was the best thing that could happen. The photos that we took almost filled the storage capacity. The random poses and the random dance was so exciting and fun. The walk on the fields was so good. 

It was one of my best and memorable part of my life which I never forget in my whole life. One who didn't go have missed the best part of their life with teachers and classmates.

TIHAR

Hello guys its me
Mingma to tell my 
Tihar experience.


On the first day of Tihar my “aama” said to me, we are not celebrating Tihar this year. Their had been a death in the family and being a devout Tibetan Buddhist, she doesn’t believe in celebrating outwardly like the Hindu festivals encourage. With some convincing from my “nana” or sister (in Tamang) my Nepali mom agreed to give me a taste of Tihar and struggled to make last minute arrangements. 

On the second day of Tihar my family and I put a “tika” on our dog “Tantre”. In the words of my older sister,”We spend all year kicking the dog and neglecting it. This is the day we give back to it and worship it’s every move.” The ceremony involved giving the dog a bath (which he didn’t like) and oil being flicked at him. When it came time to put the “tika” on his forehead he bit my Nepali mom and ran away. This would have been a funny incident but the dog is an adopted street dog and my “aama” was worried about the possibility of rabies. She went to the clinic later to discover she couldn’t afford the rabies shot. She is fine now but the relationship between her and “Tantre” is still tense.

The third day of Tihar is Laxmi Puja. On this day i came home to a flower design where our front gate is. From the flower their was a streak of brown mud, which i later found out is diluted cow dung mixed with red clay. The streak ran through the house to the beautiful shrine room on the third floor. It is disrespectful to step over the mixture. My Nepali mom brought me to the third floor where we ate sweet breads and fruit. Without explanation i realize this can sound complicated but I want to convey the constant state of confusion i was in while celebrating.

On the last day of Tihar I had an emotional ceremony exchanging “tika” with my older sister. The purposes is for long life and to physically act out the bond between brother and sister. It was similar to the procedure used for the dog. After the “puja” or worship we ate a ridiculous amount of sweets and food. My aama prepared a Nepali feast the likes of which I have never seen but felt like the early dinners Im used to during the holiday season. All together my experience with Tihar was very valuable. It really completed my Kathmandu experience seeing it in this light, and I am grateful to my instructors and my Nepali family for making it possible. I’ve included some pictures to show I am not crazy and most of this actually happened.

janai Purnima

Those who celebrate it as Janai Purnima in the hilly regions of Nepal, it is taken as a day when the men from the Brahmin community undertake the annual changing of their holy thread that marks their coming of age ceremony. Early morning, they take a bath, visit nearby temple and from the hands of a Pundit, they change the holy thread or Janai. Besides, it is also the day when pundits tie ‘Raksha Bandhan Doro’ in the hands of the Brahmin and Chhetri community. The doro or the thread is symbolic of the well wishes of the loved ones for safety and happiness.

In this festival thousands of devotees worship lord Shiva at Pashupatinath in Kathmandu and Kumbeswor in Lalitpur and take holy dips in ponds and lakes to eradicate their sins. A very great religious fair takes place at Gosaikunda lake in Rasuwa District. Ganga Dhanus Sagar at Janakpur and Tribenidham mela is also observed in this day.


Raksha Bandhan

Raksha Bandhan is a festival that falls on the full moon day of Shrawan month according to the Eastern Calander. It is celebrated among Hindus residing all around the world. According to the different geographical locations, it is called by different names as well. In the hilly regions of Nepal, it is celebrated as Janai Purnima. Similarly, in the Terai region and the northern parts of India, it is celebrated as Rakhi.
The meaning behind each of these days is also different to some degree as is evident from the name itself. Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi is mainly celebrated by the Brahmins who belong to the higher casts that are Brahmin and Kshtriyas in India and Nepal. But, coming to this day, it is celebrated by everyone who knows the meaning behind it. Discussed below are the ways in which Janai Purnima and Rakhi are celebrated throughout the Hindu community all around the world and how each have their own unique characteristics.

Gai Jatra



I am so proud to say Gai Jatra is the one festival celebrated only in Nepal. It is not shared by any of our neighbouring country. Only Nepal has the copyright of this festivalwhich is famous for it’s uniqueness as well. Here Gai is the Nepali word for cow. Jatra means carnival of people. In simple words Gai jatra is said to be the day of worshipping cows in which lots of carnivals are shown on the streets by the people according to their culture and tradition. In ancient times it was considered to be the festival only of Newars residing in Kathmandu valley. But now the festival has spread it’s unity and joy all over to Nepal regardless of anyCasts andethnicity.


Literally, the meaning of Gai Jatra is Cow Festival where Gai means Cow and Jatra mean festival. Cow Festival is a jovial Nepalese festival that lasts for eight days. Gai Jatra is 8 days festival in Nepal. It is a typical Nepali festival. There are lots of fun in this festival like dancing, singing, caricature, comedy, play, data, nach, drama, pantomime, anything that causes mirth and laughter are part of the festival’s highlight. On the first day of the Gai Jatra festival, people whose family members have died during that year, parade a decorated cow around the city (especially in Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, Lalitpur) together with their young ones dressed as cows or hermits.
