Dashain
Dashain is one of the greatest Festival
of Hinduism and Nepalese people in Nepal and other places where Nepalese people
live. Dashain mainly falls in the month of Ashwin and Kartik (October) of every
year. This year I celebrated this festival with my family, friends and
relatives. It was very enjoyfull.
We started preparation for
celebration before a week of the festival begins. We went shopping in Birtamode
and bought wearing clothes, connected internet, two Khukuri, statue and photos
of Goddess Durga, Laxmi, Swarshoti, Kumar and Ganesh, we also brought items
used in puza.
My
parents managed food items for the festival. Meat, Beaten rice, banana, fruits,
cold drinks etc are the major food for the festival.
This year our villagers
organized a huge durga pooja in a chowk and I helped in preparation and
decoration of main temple up to night 2:00 o’clock. We planed disco light, a
big statue of goddess durga and small, statues of goddess Laxmi, Swarsati, god
Kumar Kartike and Ganesh.
On the first day
of this festival called Ghtasthpana (Jamare aunsi) our family shoed jamara
(sprout of barley and maize) in special prepared plate of leaf (tapari). This
tradition is being followed from satya yuga and we are also following this
tradition in kali yuga.
On the third day of Ghtasthpana
at morning 5:00 o’clock one Siwakoti uncle came to call me to prepare a swing.
Then we 7 people went to bring bamboo 2 people to bring rope called ‘latharos’
and we started to make swing after 3 hour the preparation of swing was
completed. After that we did pooja of swing and started to play.
Every day of
Durga pooja bhajan kirtan, drama performance, religious Quiz, dancing and
others activities were held. I was also the member of Durga pooja samiti so I
had to help in every kind of work at pooja. I also played a role of Balaram and
Maisashur in drama at durga pooja. At last day of Durga pooja we prepared
parsadi. To keep safe the statues we have to sleep in the pooja place. At Dashami
the 10th day of Dashain (Bijaya Dashami). We went to Kankai mai
river to end up the pooja, we took holy bath there, put Tika and ate parsadi.
After that we came back home. We took Tika from our parents at appropriate time
of Tika after that we went to our relatives houses to put Tika and jamara and
to get blessing after 3 days only we have completed putting Tika.
This time Dashain was more intresting,
joyful, and better than last year Dashain. I enjoyed this time Dashain more
joyfully. I wish Dashain will come every month.
