जेठ शुक्ल षष्ठी
भोटो जात्रा
Exclusive audio
The sky-touching chariot is constructed in Sikhar pattern (Mountain like pattern), the wooden edifice is about 15 to 20 meters in height and 4.5 meters in diameter. From the construction of the Chariot to the Bhoto Jatra, this longest Jatra has a process of 2 months and today is the main day.
Story of Bhoto Jatra
Bhoto Jatra relates the incident of finding a real owner of a divine vest 9Bhoto) which was gifted to a farmer by a serpent king. People of eight localities in Patan—Natol, Gabahal, Mekhabahal, Kusunti, Kayanni, Walmaya, Dhaugol, and Sachhi Chhe—usually lead the Machhindranath chariot procession. This chariot brings an ancient relevance, it is believed that ancient Lichivi King Narendra Deb brought the idol of Rato Matsandrnath from Assam India to rid his kingdom of the drought. This chariot procession also marks the beginning monsoon in Nepal, clouds have arrived with water and hope within.
Avalokitswora has an eye upon us and his grace is pervasive. Utmost wishes of the chariot procession.
Sithi Nakha
Sithi Nakha
Exclusive audio
According to the Newa civilization and rites, the Sithi Nakha festival is celebrated every year on the day of Jeshtha Shukla Sashti.
Just as Kathmandu is popular as a city of temples, so is Kathmandu a city of pottery and ponds, wells, stone fountains, and boreholes. Considering the cleanliness and orderliness of these things which are very important for water resources, it has become a custom to celebrate Sithi Nakh. Today, the importance of Sithi Nakha to Kathmandu and Kathmandu residents has increased even more.
Highlights of Sithi Nakha
This festival also highlights the importance of water source conservation and the need for clean water. Today, it is customary to worship around wells, boreholes, and ponds and to clean up before worship. In this way, after everyone has gathered and worshiped, the far-reaching ritual of being religiously and culturally compelled not to litter there throughout the year is commendable.
It is believed that the water resource should be closed for a few days after cleaning in Sithi Nakha to stabilize the water level. When water is cleaned, it is cleaned by entering inside the dug wells, ponds, and boreholes, and by doing so, the underneath wastes like mud, silt, and sediment come up to the surface of the water. After cleaning the spring in this way, milk, ghee, honey, curd, and other things are added there. There is a fact that the water source in the Kathmandu valley is not as clean and full as before, resources have degraded because of rapid urbanization and mismanaged constructions/ habitat.
No matter how much rain falls, there is a cement floor around it, so the water source will not be able to absorb the rain. Due to this, most of the water sources are drying up and the people of the valley have to depend on pipes, tankers, and jars for water.
Activities on Sithi Nakha
On the day of Sithi Nakha, after the collective cleaning of the water source, it is customary to go to each other's home to greet and the welcome is delivered also through offering traditional Newa food such as Bara, Chatamari, Choyala, etc. On the same day, Chandi Devi is worshiped at Chaskhel in Bhaktapur and Kumar Kartikeya (Son of Lord Shiva and Parwati) is worshipped at Jaisidebal Kathmandu. Kumar Kartikeya is referred to by the community as a picture of eight lotus flowers placed at the entrance of his house or an artistic expression carved in metal, the entrance of a traditional Newa home is decorated by such artistic metal lotus.
Want to talk a little bit about Kumar Kartikeya, this son of Shivaji is described in the Puranas as a colonel in a supernatural army, referred to as Mahasenani. This strong man, Kumar, who can kill demons like Tarakasur is also described as the son of Ganga. It is said in the Puranas that he had six heads and was on the banks of the Ganges at the time of his birth. The river Ganga itself flows through Shivaji's Jata, so the form of Ganga has a lot to do with the water and its purity.
A unique blend of environment, milieu, and lifestyle, this festival has been teaching us the lesson of water and spring sanitation for centuries. Public awareness programs are being run in the Nepali community through foreign projects, from hand washing to drinking clean water. If we look closely, our ancient traditions are scientific and transformative in themselves. Good luck to Sithi Nakh: May our water source and mind be both pure and clean.
World Refugee Day
विश्व शरणार्थी दिवस
Exclusive audio
Background:
World Refugee Day is an international day designated by the United Nations to honor refugees around the globe. It falls each year on June 20 and celebrates the strength and courage of people who have been forced to flee their home country to escape conflict or persecution. World Refugee Day is an occasion to build empathy and understanding for their plight and to recognize their resilience in rebuilding their lives.
One in every 113 people in the world is a refugee and has to leave home, so all of us need to pay attention to this issue. Let the idea of world brotherhood and Vudaiva Kutumbakam come to every country of the world and reduce the number of wars and natural disasters so that the refugee problem will be solved by itself.
What does seeking safety mean?
1. Right to seek asylum
2. Safe access
3. No pushbacks
4. No discrimination
5. Humane treatment
What happens today?
Each year, World Refugee Day is marked by a variety of events in many countries around the globe in support of refugees. These activities are led by or involve refugees themselves, government officials, host communities, companies, celebrities, school children, and the general public.
The inspiring theme of World Refugee Day 2026, “Until Everyone Is Safe,” delivers an important message that our collective efforts must continue until every refugee, displaced person, and community affected by persecution can live with safety, dignity, and their basic rights protected.
As long as even one person remains unsafe anywhere in the world, humanity as a whole cannot truly be safe. On this day, let us understand the struggles of displaced people, honor their courage, and show our solidarity in building a world where everyone has the opportunity to live in safety and peace.

Skanda is the name of Kumar Kartikeya, elder son of Lord Shiva
Skanda, the eldest son of Lord Shiva, also known as Kumar Kartikeya. Kumar Kartikeya is worshiped on the 6th day of Skanda. Skanda Shashti is celebrated every month on the sixth day of Shukla Paksha.
It is believed that if one can remember Kumar Kartikeya and mother Parvati by fasting and worshiping on this day, the obstacles will be removed.
The Mantra for Skanda Puja
देव सेनापते स्कन्द कार्तिकेय भवोद्भव, कुमार गुह गांगेय शक्तिहस्त नमोस्तु ते॥
ऊँ ऐं हुं क्षुं क्लीं कुमाराय नमः
ऊँ नमः पिनाकिने इहागच्छ इहातिष्ठ
ऊँ नमः पशुपतये
Today worship is started by setting up a lamp urn and setting up an idol of Lord Ganesha.
May the glory of Skanda Shashti alleviate the sufferings of all.
