Rituals in Nepal-Swasthani Brata katha

                                                                               

Nepalese people have a month long ceremony of story-telling at their homes during the months of January-February. The story is called Shree Swasthani Brata katha which depicts the anecdote of the Hindu Goddess Swasthani. The tale is instigated on the full moon day of January and is continued till the next full moon day.

Some Nepali women even take fast during this one month. They opt for taking only one meal in a day and also visit different holy temples and rivers. The river of Sali is the popular site for pilgrimage all through this period. Hindu women have a deep belief that worshipping the Goddess with all of these offerings will fulfill the wishes and desires that they have in their hearts.       

The story-telling is done mostly on the evenings but it may differ according to the households. Different cuisines are offered along with the prayers to Goddess Swasthani.

Panche Baja

                                                                               

January is a month for many wedding ceremonies in Nepal. As we have mentioned in our previous blogs, the family members and friends of the bridegroom go to bring the bride to his home in a group called ‘Janti’. They sing and dance to the music played by men carrying typical Nepali musical instruments called Panche Baja.  

Panche Baja is an assembly of five musical instruments that hold great importance in Nepali culture and tradition. They have their own idiosyncratic names too which are Damaha, Narsiha (trumpet), Jhyaali, Dholak (drum) and Shehnai. The experts play the music of various Nepali folk songs, namely the Dohori songs with the help of these instruments. Anybody who runs into one of the Jantis would surely want to dance to the beat of such melody.

One of the compliments that foreign visitors make about Nepal is people over here are amiable and hospitable. You will be greeted by warm smiles anywhere you go in this peaceful nation. Of course there is diversity with regards to caste, tribe and ethnicity of Nepalese people, but there is always unison in terms of mutual cooperation and understanding.

Sherpa, Gurung and Thakali are the main groups that inhabit the Himalayan region. Sherpas are well-known throughout the world for their excellent aptitudes in mountaineering. Similarly, the Hilly region is mostly populated by Rai, Limbu, Magar and Tamang who are reputed for their bravery as the Gurkha warriors. The Brahmins, Chhetris and Newars are scattered throughout the country. The Newari people are considered to be the indigenous tribe of Kathmandu valley.

Trekking In Nepal

Eleanor Roosevelt has said “A woman is like a tea bag - you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.” You may be wondering why we have quoted this saying in the context of trekking in Nepal. Well, being a country well-known throughout the world for its exotic beauty and peace, it wouldn’t be unfair to use this metaphor if we are describing something about Nepal.

Our country boasts of bounteous natural resources which appeal to the eyes of any beholder. (This applies to a woman’s beauty too, doesn’t it?) And when it comes to giving a free rein to your adrenaline rush, Nepal stands in the forefront too! (It would require a lot of ‘manly’ strength to do that, wouldn’t it?)    That’s why if somebody’s in a need to break away from his stressful life at least for some days, Nepal would be the perfect destination. On the contrary, you might get plenty of opportunities here to let the stress take over you! (You might be bemused again with this paradox!) Don’t worry; the stress that we are talking about is ‘beautiful stress’- the one that brings pleasure to you.

Trekking in Nepal could be one of the apt ways through which you can unleash your ‘bad stress’ and embrace the good one. There are many choices as to where you would go for the trek. The Mount Everest, Annapurna, Langtang, Manaslu and Makalu are some of the popular ones. Based on the target regions, tour and travel companies will provide you with different itineraries and arrangements such as food and accommodation.

Not only that, they will also give you information about the best time of the year to do this activity, what to bring or buy, how to apply for the permits and passes and a lot more. Of course your fitness level is very important to be considered if you desire to go on long treks. Nepal One Tours can be your travel operator in this regard.
