    भूमी पूजा

    Exclusive audio

    Before starting planting in Asar, it is customary to worship the soil in Panchatatva form.The famous festival of the Magar community is celebrated with great pomp in the districts of Rolpa, Rukum, Salyan, Palpa, Dailekh, Jajarkot etc. and in all the districts of Rapti zone including Dang. The Magar community of Rukum reached the lake in their traditional attire and returned with the flower from high lands after worshiping the forest deity. Besides this, all the districts of Nepal have their own tradition of worshiping the land. There is a history of celebrating this festival since the ancestors cleared the forest and started farming.

    Bhumi Puja is associated with agriculture and clouds

    Bhumi pujan ceremonies officially start from the last day of Jestha. Bhume Puja is associated with agriculture and clouds. On the last day of Jeshta, flowers are picked from the highlands of mountains and Bhume Puja is started in lower lands. It is believed that there will be no shortage of rain after worshiping the high land where the clouds are.To ward off natural disasters like floods, landslides, and storms and to pray for good farming, the worship and celebration of Mother Earth is celebrated with great enthusiasm for about a week, and during that time, a small fair is held in every village in Nepal.

    Whether there is any construction or agricultural work on the land, the land should be worshiped after testing and cleaning it. It is customary to worship Ganesha in the soil for the initiation and smooth completion of any work. In Sanatan Darshan, the land is considered to be the same as Gaurup (Holy cow), therefore, the land is worshiped with the idol of Lord Ganapati, as well as Ishtadev and Kuldevata.

    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.
