Experienced about Dashain

Hello!! Today I am  going to write my experienced on Dashain. As we all know Dashain Festival is one of the most important Hindu festival which is celebrated all over Nepal delightfully. This festival usually falls in the month of September or October and is actually celebrated for 15 days. It starts from bright lunar fortnight (Shukla Paksha) and ends on the day of full moon (Poornima) according to Nepalese annual calendar. Hindus greatest festival, Dashain honors a great conquest of the gods over the evil demons. The symbol of power, Goddess Durga is worshiped during this festival.I also celebrate this festival with my family and relatives. The time during holiday I spend with my family is very memorable. 

Ghatasthapana:
                            The first day of Dashain is called Ghatasthapana, which literally means pot establishing. On this day the kalash, (holy water vessel) symbolising goddess Durga often with her image embossed on the side is placed in the prayer room. Me and my mother made a small rectangular sand block and we put kalash in the centre. Also we filled kalash with the holy water and covered with cowdung on to which seeds are sown. The room where the kalash is established is called 'Dashain Ghar'. 

Fulpati:
            As days passes by regular rituals are observed till the seventh day. The seventh day is called 'Fulpati'.
We brought Fulpati in the house.

Maha Asthami:
                          The eighth day is called the Maha Asthami. The fervour of worship and sacrifice to Durga and Kali increases. On this day many orthodox Hindus will be fasting. Sacrifices are held in almost every house through out the day. The night of the eighth day is also called 'Kal Ratri', the dark night. Hundreds of goats, sheep and buffaloes are sacrificed at the mother goddess temples. The sacrifice continues till dawn. While the puja is being carried out great feasts are held in the homes of common people where large amount of meat are consumed. We also sacrifice He-goat in this day.

Nawami:
               The ninth day is called Nawami.  In this day, Temples of mother goddess are filled with people from dawn till dusk. Animals mostly black buffaloes are slaughtered to honour Durga the goddess of victory and might and to seek her blessing.

Dashami:
                The tenth day is  called the Dashami.  On this day we take tika and jamara from our elders and receive their blessing. We visit our elders in their home and get tika from them while our younger ones come to our home to receive blessing from us. The importance of Dasain also lies in the fact that on this day family members from far off and distant relatives come for a visit as well as to receive tika from the head of the family. This day I played swing with my family and also I had done lots of fun with them. I clicked some photos too.

Janai Purnima

As is well known, Nepal has an abundance of colourful festivals. It may also be clear by now that all such festivals revolve around the different phases of the moon. Which is natural, considering that the Bikram Sambat calendar used in Nepal is also a lunar calendar. In this vein, the full moon day of 10th August 2014 this year (and the same, or a day, near to it every year) is an important day of the calendar, having as it does, a couple of important events.

The most important is called Janai Purnima. Brahmins change their janai (sacred thread) once a year on this day while other Hindus have a sacred thread tied around their wrists. For the Brahmins, it’s an affirmation of their status, while in the case of the latter, the thread around their wrist is supposed to offer them protection against all ills. Most people keep the thread on for at least three months,  until Laxmi Puja, when it is taken off to be tied around a cow’s tail, a deed that assures a smooth journey to heaven since, after you die, you’ll be able to hang on to it as the cow pulls you across the Baitarni River on the way. Well, the tales are as tall as the mountains, you’ll be saying, but hold on, there’s more to come. The story behind Janai Purnima is taller still!

It goes like this: a demon called Bali—having won Lord Indra’s blessings—became so powerful that it scared the gods to death, who then begged Lord Vishnu to set things right. Now, wise Vishnu, what he does, is this: he goes to Bali in the form of a dwarf and begs for some land to call his own. Bali cannot refuse; he is oath-bound to give charity, but he does want to know about the dwarf’s expectations, and asks, “How much?” The reply is succinct: “As much as I can cover in three strides.” Naturally, Bali is pleased because the dwarf has pretty short legs. “Okay then, sure,” he says. However, to his amazement, the dwarf now begins to grow really big, so much so, that his one stride covers the earth, and the other, heaven. Too late, Bali realizes he has been tricked by Vishnu who now asks him about where next to put his third step. In frustration, Bali cries, “On my head, Lord!”

Raksha Bandhan

There are so many festivals celebrated in India. A festival is the occasion of enjoyment and celebration of togetherness which strengthens our bond with our family members, relatives, friends etc. They promote peace and harmony and Raksha Bandhan is one of them. It’s a festival of brothers and sisters. Rakshabandhan is the day we celebrate the love between a brother and a sister and how can we forget the fights that we always have with our sister/brother? We fight with our brother/sister over small things. We fight on what to watch on TV, we siblings, fight on who is going o get the bigger piece of the cake and even if they are quiet we purposely tease them. We just can’t live without disturbing them. Our parents always tell us to stop fighting! But we never seem to stop.  Siblings always fight but they start feeling upset when their sister/brother is not around. The brother sister bond is eternal, to celebrate this loving bond Raksha Bandhan festive is celebrated. It depicts the love of brother and sister. It means the ‘Bond of Protection’.
