Gadhimai Temple is in the Mahagadhimai Municipality of Bara district; the district being southern most in central Nepal. The temple is located about 160 km far from Kathmandu near the Indo-Nepal borders with Bihar.  Known for centuries old tradition of animal sacrifices, Gadhimai Temple is mostly famous for Gadhimai festival. All the religious visitors from Nepal and even from India have their reverence to the Goddess Kali who is believed to be in the form of Gadhimai to her devotees.

The old tradition dates back to more than two centuries. The goddess is believed to have been appeared in the devotees dream with the demand for sacrifice. Since then the tradition has remained where the rituals of animal sacrifices has continued. The ceremony occurs every five years in the months around November to December. And the goddess is thought to fulfill everyone’s wish. Although protests against animal sacrifice remains, the traditions still continues at some extent. Gadhimai Temple Trust has already made a formal decision to end animal sacrifice in July 2015.

The People of Larke and Siar- Upper Manaslu Region

May 04, 2019

The high valleys around the back of the Manaslu Range  and bordered by the Ganesh Himal to the east and Tibet to the north, are called the Larke region. There are two groups of the people who live here, the Mongoloid Buddhist people in the Ro (Sama) and Tsum valleys, and the Siar people of mixed Gurung ancestor who occupy the hills above Gorkha and Dhading.

The people of the high valleys of Larke originally came from Tibet and are therefore enthusiastic followers of Buddhism. The Siar people share many of the habits and traditions of the Gurungs to the south, while still being ardent Tibetan Buddhism practitioners. Their economies are based on agricluture and trade, as their villages lie along two important trade routes to Tibet, which were possibly established by the Sherpa of the Solu-Khumbu. Tibetans exchanged salt and wool for food grains and Nepali merchandise. They are relatively poor, but kind hearted and fun loving and always ready to share a glass or two of rakshi (fire water) or a pot of boiled potatoes.
