- Kathmandu, Nepal is a rich and diverse city full of many different types of people with different beliefs. In today's video we are going to be exploring two different temples that celebrate two different religions, Buddhism and Hinduism, to experience two different sides of the culture here in Nepal. A long the way we meet some lovely locals, get caught in a festival parade, witness one the most amazing Hindu ceremonies and even speak to a real Yogi.

Hey everyone! Hope you are all doing well 😊Trying my best to get these videos out for you as quickly as possible! I am sure there is probably some missing information and possible wrong information (Hopefully not) in this video, so please feel to correct me or provide more information in the comments 😁 There is only so much I can research and remember, after all these videos are primarily entertainment and not supposed to be super informative. Either way I hope you all enjoy it and it gives you an insight into the culture of Nepal. Look forward to reading you lovely comments as always. Much Love ❤
Please be sure, baudhanath stupa wasn't built by tibetan king, but was built lichavi king of nepal, why would tibetan king come to kathmabdu amd build such large stupa instead of building in tibst. The stupa was originally known as "khasti mahachaitya". Khasu means dew and ti means drop in newari language, becaiuse time when the stupa build, the place was hit by drougjt and stupa was made by collecting dew drop. The stupa was renamed as baudhanarh by king Mahendra.
@@kapil4417037 The multiple sources I read must be wrong then, they said it was built by Songtsen Gampo (Tibetan King). Thank you for the information, I appreciate it 🥰
@@TheJourneyofJosh it was built much before tsongsten gampo. this stupa is completely newari style and not tibetan style. it is just that lots of tibetan refugee start to settle here and made it feel like it was built by tibetan king. before tsongsten gampo, tibetan don't have much influence of buddhism, after him marryin with nepali buddhist princess bhrikuti devi and chinese buddhist princess, the tibet start have buddhist influence,
@TheJourneyofJosh bro go to tip top sweets (new road branch only) and try some samosas there the best
Love from 🇳🇵
"Half knowledge with full confidence" The guy at the last lol 😂
I agree 💯
🤣🤣🤣he fooling ,No way he dumb
Yes he f*ck up so hardly 😂
That fire in the temple beside you was a cremation happening in the temple. It is believed if you are cremated in pashupatinath, you would get away with the continuous cycle of rebirth and get salvation and inner peace.
Josh in pashupatinath temple. You're sitting near river.and big fire 🔥. Bro it's dead body burning. U don't realize be careful next time .u should ask local.
Hi Josh, just correcting the fact that Boudhanath, originally called Khasti Chaitya was built by Lichchhavi king Vrisadeva and not by a Tibetan king
also visit
1. bandipur a ancient architectural city of nepal.
2. Sauraha chitwan´s jungle safari and seeing endangered species only left in world.
3. Visit lumibini nepal= birthplace of lord buddha.
Pokhara and manang-mustang is must don't miss it too. Enjoy your days in nepal. Much love josh ❤️
Thanks for the suggestions! ☺️ Pokhara and Chitwan videos are coming soon! ❤️
Aww that boy at the coffee shop was so cute! Wish you guys can take him to the Philippines!
I gotta say the Nepali kids are too cute!
Yeah he seemed like a good lad, sure he would love PH haha
31:58 that's a person burning
Bro, I was about to say the same thing. My dude was like, it's just a big fire, and the priest is trying to keep the fire alive until Aaratí concludes. Little did he know that the priest was ensuring all the body parts of the dead burnt properly into ashes.
In Nepal people and kids are speaking good enough English to all over South Asia. Do you agree josh ?
Definitely agree! Most people’s English here is amazing
we are very happy to see you ppl enjoying our place.
Being away from hometown for 6 years and now , suddenly this video brings your childhood memory back..🥲🥲
Thankyou for visiting our country 😊🇳🇵
Enjoy your time and stay safe 💜
The fire you see while seeeing arti and in the ending of video is actually people being burn😂fyi
Yeah I mentioned that about the other fires near the end of the video but for some reason my brain didn’t process that the fire right infront of me was the same thing. Thanks for the info
Josh your commentary during the anti was epic… 🤩 dancing is perhaps not a tradition… it may be craziness and a new addition that no one knows what to do with.
intresting vlog
u r so lucky guys
I am glad you went to bhaktapur, my hometown. That was a cool video and you got to enjoy the jatra. I recommend you go to kirtipur. That place is like a time capsule. It's a cool and quite place. People really make your videos though, very welcoming.
thanks for coming nepal have a nice and peaceful journey ...................
Thank you so much ❤️
Carry on josh bro... i like ur looks And have a great journey ❤
Hello Josh, since you are headed to Poon Hill, you are in for a treat! You will get to see the most amazing views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges. By the way, the best time to go to Sarangkot View point is before sunrise.
Great video bro 😊
Thanks brother! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
oh wow its amazing how they do that ceremony every night .. like almost an occasion is it like you said a celebration of life or about their loved ones who had passed.. thats amazing i think in my country every undas or araw ng mga patay .. we gather around the cemetery.. nowadays they have stalls and music in there .
31:57
That is human body burning
So interesting and beautiful❤
Love from Nepal 🇳🇵
Enjoy your trip 🇳🇵🙏😊
Lots of love from nepal 🇳🇵❤️
Love from Nepal 🇳🇵 ❤
Welcome Nepal 🇳🇵
In pasupatinath temple you are standing on the opposite side so you cant see temple people in another side in river and fire people are doing (arati) facing temple and worshiping god shiva .....and all people are saying jay sambho means the another name of god shiva ....and in far you see that is a burning dead body .....other time they used to burn body where you are standing and that white clothman is the man who burn bodies but at arati time they dont use that palce ......
Thanks for the information brother! So many people have told me that the fire next to me was a burning body so I felt pretty stupid not realising.. good to know that I wasn’t being stupid 😂 Sure I would have known by the smell if it was. Much appreciated.
Lol it was being burned ..
the fire that you mentioned was an open cremation..
Love u josh lots of love from Nepal 🇳🇵 ❤❤❤
Even as a nepali i feel watching visitors visiting my country so relaxing
Welcome Nepal ❤

🙏🙏🌹🌹🇳🇵🇳🇵❤️❤️😘😘
Nepal 🇳🇵
11th may Saturday come to lalitpur (pulchowk) for newari festival ❤
Hello josh,
I hope you are having a good time in Nepal. As you have got many comments/information about Boudhanath Stupa, let me tell you something about the arti ceremony. The huge fires you see are bodies being cremated as Pashupatinath is a very important and holy temple for hindus so people who passed away if they are cremated in the vicinity of Lord Pashupatinath it is said that their soul will either recieve mukti or they will not be reincarnated as animals and will be born as a human their next life. Also as Lord Shiva is considered a deity of arts, music and dance as well (nataraja a avatar of lord shiva is said to perform a dance to end the world) so yes those women dancing were in a trance state. These are things that i know as i am not a guru i also might not have the correct information according to the sastras, i just told you what i have heard since my childhood. Again i hope you have an amazing time in my beautiful country, have fun mate.
Go to Heiking bro. People frequently talk about the ABC trek, EBC trek, Langtag trek etc. But Nepal is like an open book there are still innumerable places unexplored. We even Nepali don't know about most of Them.
Rara Lake (Mugu District), Tilicho Lake, and Sheyphosudo Lake are the most recommended ones if you love to watch freshwater lakes. I bet you won't regret. it 🇳🇵❤️
Hiking? Trekking coming soon
@TheJourneyofJosh Love you, bro. Hope you get lucky in the weather conditions.
You can go more up in terrace from that balcony also for better view
At the stupa? Tried to go up another floor but it was locked 🥲
the place u were seating during the time of Aarati is known as (Ghat)..which means the place where peoples burn the dead bodies.
secondly the dance is cumpulsary during the time of Aarati..the most important thing is the faith of the people and the unity of the hidus where they all worships same god,,
Wow, this was good , I never had this detailed tour of boudhanath stupa in real visits.
nicely done
Magandang gabi sir josh!👋😉
Magandang gabi sir Michael! ☺️
Hi Josh how are you.. ❤🇵🇭enjoy take care
Hey Lily! I’m okay thanks, a little sick. How are you? 😊❤️
You look like Chester ❤
I suggest you to visit sindupalchowk last resort
Big fan sir
Thank you so much! Really appreciate the support. Hope you enjoy the video 😊
❤😊🙏🇳🇵
I feel the boy who said he's alone 😔, and he find you and pay for your tea 🍵
Hey josh the fire near was the dead person being cremated. so you also watched the Hindu Cremation.
❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤
Which one do you like most between Architectural monuments and natural sceneries? And yeah they are burning bodies in the last scene.
nah the man catching pokemon was wild for that 😂
when the Nepali people's tell you a long name it's not a two names the first one is their name and second one is their surname enjoy your day
That makes sense, not something I was used to haha, thanks for the info
Grate
🇳🇵❤
Try keema noodles and laphing
My brother didn't knew that the fire he was calling was the place where the death body was burning
Yeah I mentioned that about the other fires near the end of the video but for some reason my brain didn’t process that the fire right infront of me was the same thing. 😅 Had no smell or anything
No worries enjoy the stay in Nepal lots of love
❤❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️

@@TheJourneyofJosh try pork ...coz that place is very popular for pork aswell as the night out
In that fire ,a people was being cremated..
in Nepal, when u ask for their name, they tend to say their full name, unlike westerners that just say their first name only like "Josh".
GGMU❤❤
Love from Pokhara Nepal and bro your mate he dosent post videos I didn't see on TH-cam can u give his TH-cam channel
His channel is Kayyywild 😊 Think he should be posting again soon
@@TheJourneyofJoshtnks
Bro even if yoo are not Hindu you can join in the aeratii in pashupati..🙏🕉
love from Nepal❤(❁´◡`❁)
Much Love! ❤️❤️
The fire next in front of you it was a cremation of dead body
Not sure how I didn’t realise that as I knew that’s what the other fires were.. I guess my brain didn’t process
@@TheJourneyofJosh The cremation of dead body is happening like all day and night every day and why we do this in Hindu religion we believe that our human body is made by five different elements and they're earth,water,air,fire and sky and after our death we give our body back to the nature thanks
🏮
That last guy knows “Tantra”, he is already enlightened in his own way. Oh my Gosh.
32:25 isn't just firing that is the dead body In front of you burning 😅
Bouddhanath was built by a nepalese (Lichchhavi) king or crown prince to be precise
newa culture celebrates both hinduism and buddhism so we have both hindu and buddhist heritages as well
please get your information correctly
The last man gave you misguiding information on people wearing Orange outfits.
People wearing Orange outfits are called ‘Sadhus’- who wear orange to show their dedication to Lord Shiva and orange is Sacred color in Hinduism.
Enjoy your stay at Nepal ❤
I think what he was trying to say is that many of the Sadhus are not genuine, I’ve done research into this since and apparently fake Sadhus are quite common. Thanks for the information though, appreciate it ☺️❤️
Hello Josh namaste
Namaste my friend! How are you?
@@TheJourneyofJosh I'm good 👍👍👍 ma thikai chuu 🇳🇵
You can't find difference between Hinduism and Buddhism in Nepal, especially in Kathmandu. Both religions have syncretized in a unique way that even anthropologists can barely describe. You can find Hindus praying at Bouddhanath and Buddhists at Pashupatinath with zero regard for their personal religious beliefs. We don't differentiate between Hinduism and Buddhism, both are equally important for us.
The fire near you is a cremation going on. Cremation is done in white special clothing and you can't touch them.
Yeah I mentioned that about the other fires near the end of the video but for some reason my brain didn’t process that the fire right infront of me was the same thing. Thanks for the info
if u have a time on Saturday then will you please explore whoope land which is in Kathmandu chovaar so please visit there saturday is the best time...have a good time
Have been told this a few times now, will try to go if I have time! ☺️
@@TheJourneyofJosh i hope u will make ur viewers happy ahaha my sixth sense is telling me that u will go there ok byee
he is not 'Manarayan' . he meant " i am Narayan ("Ma Narayan") 😆
Kathmandu follows Vajrayana Buddhism(Buddhism +shaktism) and Shaktism ,Shaivism most . Shaktism has a older history than of hindusim and Buddhism .
Forget him he didn't care! But i like ur interest in 🕉️❤
Hey josh you just missed the funeral of hindu religion..what you see in front of you burning wood is just burning dead body..
Don't worry I didn't miss it, I just didn't really want to film it 😅 I have been here twice now and the second time a body was brought down to the river
❤️❤️
26:42 another reason why cr7 rules the football world
actually they were burning death body near you
yo bro thats not fire is the cremation... Antyesti''
I am aware that's what it is brother
I’ve just realised you meant the fire I was next to.. that I was not aware of 😅 Thanks for the info bro. Not sure why I didn’t realise that
@@TheJourneyofJosh its all good hopefully u having some good time nepal,
Every god begins from lord krishna , He creats uncountable gods with diffrent faces that means he is self power is as wel as original gods ,for example lord shiva's one hair has power can destroy hole universe means can make zero !!
That was a random dance ,you can do aswell..
The fire beside you and other side is burning the dead bodies
Yeah I mentioned that about the other fires near the end of the video but for some reason my brain didn’t process that the fire right infront of me was the same thing. Thanks for the info
The fire you talking about is the cremation of the dead. (FYI)

Dear,
I have seen your TH-cam channel, you have uploaded many videos, now the main thing is that your content is very good but your video has no view & subscriber. I think the keyword section area of your video should be better, that means SEO so that your channel grows quickly. If you want I can do video and channel seo of your channel, more I can help you.
The dance is actually not a part of aarti or official performance. They were people that just chose to dance.
Aghori at the last are considered to be the worshiper of dark-power or an alternative sect of Hinduism by normal worshipers. They traditionally used human bones and ate flesh from human corpse.
the guy at the last part is just talking shit. spreading false informations. whatever he said about the orange colour dress it was not true. in fact, orange colour is said to be the most sacred colour in hinduism and buddhism, the colour represents kindness, calmness and peace.
Visit gorkha
What do you recommend I do there?
@@TheJourneyofJosh you should visit Gorkha, Nepal for its historical significance, charming old town, and off-the-beaten-path experience. Gorkha, birthplace of King Prithvi Narayan Shah, offers a warm welcome, historical sites like Gorkha Durbar, and trekking in the Himalayan foothills
. With fewer visitors, it provides a unique cultural experience, diverse ethnic groups, and stunning views of Manaslu mountain. Gorkha's rich narrative, diverse population, and attractions like Manakamana Temple make it a must-visit destination for those seeking a rich travel experience.
U should go mad honey hunting 🔥
I have that in my books, just waiting for the right season 😉
I don’t think so that dance is related to Arati.
Someone else said the dancing is compulsory during Arti
@@TheJourneyofJoshyeah three guy up with fire performing. Women that dancing may be too much Ganza marijuana. Nepal is free country so Women can dance when ever where ever they wants. By the way I love your videos I am watching from Philadelphia USA.
@@TheLama7000 Apparently it's a guy dressed as a woman haha, and yeah someone told me they are under the influence. Thanks for the support! ❤
This guy have ho idea what is going on🤣🤣
Think that was pretty obvious 😂
you are true those are the burning body
Yep! I somehow didn’t realise the fire infront of me was though
@@TheJourneyofJoshi think it wasn’t cause you would have known by the smell😆
@@AKASHI6996 That’s a good point, didn’t seem any different to a regular fire to me 😅
Because it happened more than half an hour ago
Thats not fire bro its cremination of person
ignoge the irritating guys ............enjoy
This last nepali guy speaking English is wrong. He don't know anything about spirituality.
