This documentary is telling the story of child goddesses in Nepal.
Kumari is the living child goddess who represents the belief and faith of the Nepalese, some could be as young as 5 years old. Her blessing is considered auspicious by everyone, including the head of state, even in modern times.
Kumari's life is different from other girls due to the strict set of rules and regulations she must follow, for example, Her feet cannot touch the floor at any cost, she must not to speak to anyone, she is considered to be above all others, including her parents.
Once a Kumari reaches puberty, a whole new world outside of the temple awaits her and that’s when reality hits.
This episode has been filmed in December 2018.

"the priests take them in to a dark room where even the parents aren't allowed to know what's going on" sounds alarmig
Agree
yea right, I hope she is really safe
@@heyheyhey6730 if not family relationship, women never safe with men
Nothing alarming. No such issues raised by previous Kumaris ever. Also dark room is due to the traditional architecture of temples and houses in Nepal. Most of the interior of temples and houses are dark by design of Nepali traditional wooden windows which act like one way glass window
Gladly, it is not a problem as the priests are highly religious and the girls are considered goddess. Cases of priests exploiting kumaris is unexistant

For those who dont know, the guy in this clip is the living god Ganesh.
And yes Kathmandu have the tradition of keeping two male deities alongside kumari who have to follow similar regulations like herm
What didi you do this summer:
Oh i was a god
Several times I have visited nepal and saw the living godess. True paradise
Going to watch all the videos on your channel. Every video seems interesting
Thank you!
This tradition and a goddess reminds me of the Dala Lama as well. They pick the chosen one as a young boy as well.
The "secret" ceremony seems a little shady.
Fascinating
Great videos! Keep it up.
Thanks, will do!
When I feel like complaining about my childhood I will remember this
😊🌻
wym they’re treated like gods even tho it’s messed up a lot of people have lived worse
like I know a lot of people who wouldn’t complain about THIS
She looks tired and sad💀
lil girl looks so done with everyone
i hope you can make a documentary concerning the environment. :)
We did already produce some. They will be uploaded very soon on our channel.
How do they connect with the real world after they start their periods? How do you go from being venerated to being a normal young girl?
They arent totally detached from the real world.
They already would have their fair share of experience regarding it.
But again community make efforts to re-introduce her into the society, i heard there are counselling sessions with former kumaris and all.
It breaks my heart seeing these poor little kids like this.
I may not understand this, but I respect it, and I believe it should be protected and allowed to proceed without hindrance. As long as no abuse in at least the most basic sense is not occurring, we have no right to disrupt it. Of course, part of allowing this religious practice to continue is to allow it to organically adapt and change as per the feedback of the former 'Kumaris' and other relevant individuals.
This may be way low on the scale of things, but if they can never go outside, their bone density must be awful once they're "normal" You've gotta have sunlight for your body to synthesize Vitamin D. 😕 Let's not mention the entire population knows when they start their periods! 🤦🏼♀️
I was curious if there were any older Kumari. I figured maybe into their late teens possibly hid their cycle somehow. I was not expecting to see a grown woman though. You would think she would be venerated even more for lasting so long.
She was forcefully ousted by the royal family which made community to establish her seperately as a life long Kumari.
I understand it traditional but dude, she just a kid. That child labor to me. Does she want to do it? Does she go to school?
The decision is upto her parents and her self if she want to do this
Yes she get a Personal teacher to teach her means yes she would still be educated
I saw a video where an ex kumari said she is now a financial analyst so I think that they have education
Labor?
5:09 has no scars
Kinda made me a bit insecure
A blessing for others and a curse for her. 😢
She looks not happy :(
These is our tradition and she is not harm mentally and physically .. these is not against human .. you should dig a lot before talking ..
Living few years as Goddess , being revered by people , getting financial incentive . And when retired after mensuration getting life time pension . I dont see why its bad for her . People with ideological and religious vested interest making issue out of it .
Children are supposed to be Children. Play and have fun. No these tough lifestyle.
she's living the dream instead of playing in the mud
@@i-3137 exactly how i wished i was worshipped like a goddess
@@zee3582 exactly these people take care of her 24/7 makes sure she's okay and safe and wouldn't dare to touch her she's living better then most children in this world eating and playing mud and plastic barbies
You mind your own bussiness we Nepalese people know how to protect our girls and women .. we are not like white ass folk ..
I wonder what the dark room thing is about
It's due to traditional design of Nepali houses, palaces or temples. Most of the temples and traditional houses have dark interior.
poor little girl ... its her age to play and be a child not a mature girl 😢😢
she's living the dream of most teen girls
In Hinduism, girls are treated as mother goddess
But alas, poor girl AYESHA 6 year girl , its her age to play and be a child not a sex toy to allah......
@@i-3137and dreams collapse suddenly one day...
@@hemantpahari2251and so, unlike you they aren’t crying about it as if it’s the end of the world.
can’t be a godess if goddess needs to learn everything that is happening in the world 😬
They destroyed the life of that little girl.
the west isnt doing any better lmao
Like allah destroyed life of 6 year old AYESHAA
I think you destroy your life here talking our culture religion darling.. we are far better than white ass like you.. we know how to protect our womens in our Nepal .. Dnt talk too much
The little girl is fine and well she has the power to destroy then we destroying her life the only thing that’s destroyed is your way of thinking .
15:39 wow, not knowing how to walk, incredible to imagine. That’s why we were given legs!
❤🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🙏🇳🇵
Poor Girl....that's torture!!
Lmao torture? She only have to live that way for some hour a day she is allowed to play study and do watever she want but just cant leave the house she can even make friends
Poor kid… in the western world this would be child abused.
Shut up its our culture and tradition and its not like she has to stay emotion less like that for whole goddess period she can play have friends and do whatever she like she studies and all she only stay that way for some hour a day yea she cant leave the house but its not as complex as you guys think and its not against any child right
damm i have more super power..i can make that god pregnant
People are to impatient and over assuming. Here we worship her as a god she is kept better then the king or any government official. If you don’t know the reason and importance of any culture don’t speak this is not a reality show its a cultural tradition where energy, time, belief and devotion is prioritized not stupidity.
long live kumari the greatest goddess
She is a normal girl what the..... I mean you look at her...she seems like she doesn't even know what she is supposed to do
