The day when I got of Kathmandu to Bungamati, in the attempt to meet and visit the Kumari and her family. Kumari, or Kumari Devi, or Living Goddess - Nepal, is the tradition of worshiping young prepubescent girls as manifestations of the divine female energy or devi in Hindu and Buddhist religious traditions. The word Kumari is derived from the Sanskrit Kaumarya, meaning "princess".

ABOUT ME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello there! If you make it this far, welcome!
I am Syifa, an Indonesian female solo traveler, who started solo traveling in 2013. I enjoy budget traveling by staying with locals, motorbike riding but also like to explore local food.
After working for the government till 2016, I left Indonesia to pursue long-term traveling. As naive as I was, it only lasted me for 5 months throughout Asia. In January 2017 I moved to China for an English teaching job, which was considered to be my first living abroad experience. Stayed until May 2018, living in China has changed me, in a good way.
I love traveling and creating travel videos on TH-cam. It is such a rewarding work for me that I do wish this would last me for a while.
During my travel in Nepal, I kept trying to figure out what sort of cultural activities or history that may have not been exposed that well by other vlogger. I came across the article and documentary about KUMARI, the living goddess of Nepal.
While in reality, I dont support the idea of turning a 4 y.o girl to be worshipped and be returned to her family once she starts her menstruation, I was trying to understand and respect different cultural belief because that's one of the reasons why I travel.

What a horrible situation it was with the earthquake, but you can see the the people's resilience to rebuild. It always amazes me that people who have so little are able to give more than those of us who should. Keep up the great work
Indeed the earthquake destroyed a lot of homes and cultural sites in Nepal. Thank you so much for your compassion and your comment Rob. Much appreciated.

Instead of recycling old information like others, you bring new light to the understanding the culture. Powerful way of showing life of others and scholarly well done. You making available for any and all the secret of beholding the divine in sacred and all that goes goes right to our heart.

Hello Syifa, thank you for this video. The Goddess of Nepal is basically a baby wow. Thank you for this interesting factual and information video. It's great learning about different cultures. Keep up the good work and being so kind as to help people :)
Kumari, or Kumari Devi, or Living Durga - Nepal, is the tradition of worshiping young prepubescent girls as manifestations of the divine female energy or devi in Asian religious traditions. ... In Nepal, a Kumari is a prepubescent girl selected from the Shakya caste of the Nepalese Newari Buddhist takecare Syifa......
Hey, I like the "spending money consciously" idea. There is a lot to it. No matter how much money one has, if one spends it carefully and for the right things/ the right people, one can do a lot of good. Very interesting video. I wouldnt have known about the living goddess without it. Thumbs up!
Your program is getting more and more interesting. Touched by your compassion for others .
Extremely pleased to read this response from you Tony! Thank you so much!!
Very nice post ! Thanks.
You've definitely succeeded in showing us something that is both interesting and unique! :D

Hope You enjoyed the visit.. U should visit the living goddess kumari of kathmandu.. too
Good on you Syifa for helping the economy.. That's really nice to see. Great video!
Wow!! Thank you once again for giving such a great information about living Goddess "Kumari".Nepal is the land of living gods and goddesses. Kumari is derived from the Sanskrit word Kaumarya, which means princess.The historical significance of worshiping a girl as a goddess,the tradition that dates back to the 17th century. Lots & lots of love and respect to you "Syifa"
Thank you Ajay for your fair share of knowledge with regards to this living goddess tradition. Lots of respect to you too Ajay. Much appreciated for your time and support.
That's very kind of you dear. It's my pleasure and yes I am also belongs from Newar culture and i will be always there for you, support you......

3:40 it's actually cardamom and not cloves...other than that, great video as always!
Thanks for your correction Baadal! Definitely I didnt know what that thing was called. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch this video and for your support!
*In the Shakta text Devi Mahatmyam or Chandi, the goddess is said to have declared that she resides in all female living beings in this universe. The entire ritual of Kumari is based on this verse. But while worshiping a goddess, only a young girl is chosen over a mature woman because of their inherent purity and chastity.*

You get good aila and choila in Bungamati/Khokana ... and enjoy it with some interesting stories about their ponds.
I read somewhere that the ponds are special before it was hit by the earthquake. I didnt stay for too long but thanks for your recommendation :D Hope you enjoyed this one!
@@SyifaAdriana
I was doing my thesis is traditional Newari architecture, I flunked. Aila (local Newari traditional alcohol) around Sankhu, Changu Narayan and Bungamati were too good for my career. Professional hazard, lol.
Syifa you are such a kind heart girl, that's why i liked your every single video so much and God bless you wherever you go
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch this video and for your support!
