festival is celebrated for 15 days worshipping the Goddess Durga. It usually
falls in the month of Ashwin or Kartik. about dashain, it is also regarded as one of the longest

This time I didn’t go to my village and I stayed in Kathmandu during the holidays. My family celebrated Dashain in in Kathmandu. In 5th ashwin we celebrated Ghatasthapana.
Phulpati:
11th of Ashwin was celebrated as Phulpati. In this day all members of my family went to
worship lord Durga in pashupatinath temple.
Asthami:
This was celebrated on 12th Aswin. Asthami is also regarded as 8th day of
dashain. This day many people in the Nepal used to it celebrate by sacrificing
animals to Durga and Kali. They used to sacrifice mainly goat in the temple.
Our family also sacrificed a goat in the temple and on that day we called the
relatives in our house and we had meat of goat.
Dashami:
This day was celebrated
on 14th kartik is known for putting tika. On this day we take tika and Jamara
from our elders and receive their blessing. Elder member of the family started
to put tika for younger member and start to give blessing. Everything was good
and all member of my family were happy and they were feeling wonderful. We took
some photographs while putting tika. Everyone in the member put tika to each
other. I also received tika and jamara from my parents. The day went very good
with my parents and all the relatives.
This Dashain wasn’t
quiet good but however I enjoyed a lot with my parents and relatives.
