    The divine day to observe and worship the water reflection of Pashupatinath.





    In the bank of Bagmati River and under the lap of mountainous range, there lies the supreme form of Lord Shiva in the holy Pashupatinath temple. The fate of the Bagmati River is to integrate into Ganga and eventually to the ocean, similarly, Pashupatinath manifests the ultimate energy and awakening about the life and death of mankind. This is the holiest place for Hindus and a full circle of Hindu pilgrimage is incomplete without stepping in the holy Pashupati area. This prehistoric religious avenue is cited in several ancient texts and incidents of Sanatan philosophy. Surrounded by devpatan, jayabageshwori, gaurighat, Chabahil, Kutumbahal, Sifal, Gaushala, Pinglasthan and Slesamantak forest, the Pashupatinath area extends up to 264 hectares including about 492 temples/ monuments and more than 1000 shivalingas.

    Today I will be narrating this specific day when devotees are offered the water reflection glimpse of Pashupatinath. This is not an ordinary ceremony or a mediocre ritual, it happens once a year and is observed by hundreds of devotees. For several centuries, the local people from Newa community are involved in this divine day. These community people wash the main shivalinga and put on a new crown over it, the water reflection of the shivalinga is created by filling the southern part of the temple with water. This divine reflection underneath the open blue February sky is observed by pilgrims and devotees till dusk.

    Lord shiva manifests the energy of creating, protecting, and transforming, Pashupatinath itself means the lord of every creature of this universe. The serene environment of pashupatinath translates different energy and a new meaning of existence, make sure you don't miss this specific day of observing Shivalinga in its water reflection.

    Om Namaha Shivaya

    International Childhood cancer day


    International Childhood Cancer Day is a global collaborative campaign to raise awareness about childhood cancer and to express support for children and adolescents with cancer, the survivors, and their families. February 15th is marked as International Childhood cancer day. The theme for 2022 is ‘Better Survival’ is achievable #throughyourhands.

    Cancer is one of the leading causes of death among children and adolescents worldwide; approximately 280,000 children ages 0-19 are diagnosed with cancer each year. In high-income countries, more than 80% of children with cancer are cured, but in many low- and middle-income countries, the cure rate is about 20%.
    Meaningful wishes of this day.

    Hamro Patro - Connecting Nepali Communities
    Hamro Patro is one of the first Nepali app to include Nepali Patro, launched in 2010. We started with a Nepali Calendar mobile app to help Nepalese living abroad stay in touch with Nepalese festivals and important dates in Nepali calendar year. Later on, to cater to the people who couldn’t type in Nepali using fonts like Preeti, Ganesh and even Nepali Unicode, we built nepali mobile keyboard called Hamro Nepali keyboard.
