llustration Of Celebrating Mha Puja in Nepal

Description

Mha Puja is a festival celebrated specifically by the Newari caste during the five day Tihar festival. Mha Puja takes place on the fourth day of the festival, and it is also considered Newari New Year. In Nepal, several of the castes have their own New Year Day and their own calendar. For Newars, it’s 1140 instead of 2020. For the Nepalese, it’s 2077. Somehow, we manage to be in the past, present, and future all at once.

Mha Puja is the celebration of oneself and is also called “self-worship day.” There are a few different meanings behind the day. Some believe it is a day of cleansing and purifying the soul. Others feel it celebrates one’s spirit. Overall, it’s meant to start the New Year with a blessing of happiness, wealth, and good health.
