Nepal observed a public holiday today on the occasion of
Yomari Purnima, one of the important festivals of Newari ethnic community. Yomari
is the name of a delicacy while ‘purnima’ means the Full moon day. This dish is
made up of rice flour that covers the ingredients like ‘chaku’ and ‘khuwa’
(both are sweet in taste). The Newari folks believe that its triangular shape
is a symbol of knowledge and wisdom.
This festival is celebrated on the second day of the full
moon, in the month of December. The Newari people worship and store up the Yomari
which is to be eaten only on the fourth day of the festival. As Nepal has an exemplary harmony among people
of all kinds of castes and religions, the Newars even invite their friends and
neighbors from different cultures to relish their dish.
