The greatest festival of Nepalese, ‘DASHAIN-2082’ has started from celebrating the traditional rituals Ghatasthapana (22 September), across the country, as devotees sowed JAMARA and invoked Goddess Shailaputri.
Across Nepal, families set up Ghatasthapana either in their household prayer rooms or at the Dashain Ghar set up in the locality. The day is dedicated to Shailaputri, the first manifestation of Goddess Durga among the Navadurgas.
With the rituals observed, devotees believe the nine days of Navaratri will bring blessings of health, prosperity, and protection.
Similarly, CWN also organized a Dashain festival program with the active participation of the supported children on 26th September 2025. We put Tika and gave them blessings for their prosperity. Giving blessings by the elder and seeking blessings from the younger is one of the traditional methods to celebrate the Dashain festival. The festival was celebrated with joy and happiness, and the children and staff members were delighted to share the festivities. Besides that, CWN provided a lunch box set to all the children at the end of the program.
