Nepal is observing a public holiday today to mark the
auspicious occasion of Mahashivaratri. Nepalese devotees are worshipping and
offer prayers to the Hindu deity Lord Shiva, on this special day. Pilgrims from
all over Nepal as well as the neighboring countries like India have gathered to
pay homage to the Pashupatinath temple. Others are going to the temples of Lord
Shiva situated nearby their localities. Religious priests and preachers are
telling stories of Lord Shiva at various places.
There’s a tradition in which the children stop the pedestrians
and other people who are commuting to their work and ask for money. The adults delight
them by donating either money or any kind of food. This day also coincides with the Nepali Army Day.
