Resumen

It is the biggest religious, cultural and historic street festival of Nepal, particularly within the Kathmandu valley and mainly observed by Newar community. Yenya means "Kathmandu festival" in Nepal Bhasa. It is the time when the advent of the monsoons is celebrated in the name of the rain god 'Indra'. The eight days long celebrations consist of two events. Indra Jatra is marked by masked dances of deities and demons (commonly known as Lakhe Naach, Mahakali Naach, Lusiki Naach and Dash Avatar), displays of sacred images and tableaus in honor of the Hindu deity Indra, the king of heaven. The other event is Kumari Jatra, the chariot procession of the Living Goddess Kumari. Three chariots carrying human representations of Goddess Kumari, Lord Ganesh and Lord Bhairava are pulled along the festival route through Kathmandu Durbar Square. Classical dancers, mask dancers of deities wearing different kinds of traditional masks and costumes and musicians also accompany the chariot procession. The dancing continues throughout the route to celebrate the visit of the rain god, Indra. The procession starts at around 3 pm. Indra Jatra was started by King Gunakamadeva to commemorate the establishment of the city of Kathmandu in the 10th century. Kumari Jatra, which means the chariot festival of Kumari, coincides with Indra Jatra. It was started in 1756 AD during the reign of Malla King Jaya Prakash Malla. Family members deceased in the past year are also remembered during the festival. The main venue of the festivities is Kathmandu Durbar Square. The celebrations last for eight days. There is a public holiday in Kathmandu Valley to mark the festival. Indra Jatra also marks the beginning of the festive season, which is preceded by major festivals Dashain and Tihar.

Am I still yours

"Don't you think it's too late?" I looked at him who is looking into my eyes with so many words in his those 2 little fluffy eyes. He wanted to say something but I cut him off by saying, "It's been two years. It's been two years since you left me even without saying the reason. I know you didn't want to make me worried about you. I don't want to be your partner only on your happy days. I want to share your happiness, sadness, worries everything. But you didn't think of me sharing everything." Now he is looking down on the table, he is not looking at me probably he is crying or afraid to face me but why am I feeling so hurt? . . "It's been two years Eun, you didn't even try to contact me. Let me clear you something. In these two years, you have changed, I have changed, our life has changed. We can't go back to where we used to be." I don't think I can go any further. He is looking so hurt, I can feel my eyes are getting teary, my voice is going to crack. I tried to stay as straight as I can maybe I am being too much harsh toward him but I don't know why am I being like this. "You will find someone in your life who is better than me, whom you can trust, whom you can open up yourself without any hesitation. Wait for the day. Take care." After saying this I felt like an emotionless girl and I left the cafe without looking at my back and he.......... he didn't try to stop me. Is this how love is? So you are changed. Don't you?
