Short Form: Nepal. Term for Citizen(s): Nepalese. Click to Enlarge Image Capital: Kathmandu. Major Cities: According to the 2001 census, only Kathmandu had a population of more than 500,000.

Holiday dates also may vary by year and locality as a result of the multiple calendars in use—including two solar and three lunar calendars—and different astrological calculations by religious authorities. In fact, holidays may not be observed if religious authorities deem the date to be inauspicious for a specific year. The following holidays are observed nationwide: Sahid Diwash (Martyrs’ Day; movable date in January); National Unity Day and birthday of Prithvi Narayan Shah (January 11); Maha Shiva Ratri (Great Shiva’s Night, movable date in February or March); Rashtriya Prajatantra Diwash (National Democracy Day, movable date in February); Falgu Purnima, or Holi (movable date in February or March); Ram Nawami (Rama’s Birthday, movable date in March or April); Nepali New Year (movable date in April); Buddha’s Birthday (movable date in April or May); King Gyanendra’s Birthday (July 7); Janai Purnima (Sacred Thread Ceremony, movable date in August); Children’s Day (movable date in August); Dashain (Durga Puja Festival, movable set of five days over a 15-day period in September or October); Diwali/Tihar (Festival of Lights and Laxmi Puja, movable set of five days in October); and Sambhidhan Diwash (Constitution Day, movable date in November).

    Secularity As a Tool for Religious Indoctrination and Identity Formation: a Case of Semi-Urban Community in Nepal

    Globe: A Journal of Language, Culture and Communication, 6: 80-93 (2018) Secularity as a tool for religious indoctrination and identity formation: a case of semi-urban community in Nepal Shurendra Ghimire, Tribhuvan University Abstract: This article presents the complexity of a secularization process that goes on in a state where Hinduism is culturally embedded and dominant. The term ‘secular’ is meant to indicate the state’s ‘dis-involvemet’ in religious issues. However, Nepal faces a complex and ambivalent process of secularization. On the one hand, the state itself has encouraged diverse cultural communities to bring religious schools into practice. On the other, people of diverse communities are increasingly motivated to seek their identities via religious practices. Amid this confrontation, this ethnographic study, conducted in a single territory with diverse religious communities, organizations and schools, challenges the very dis-involvement of the state, community and individual in religious matters. In the process of practicing religious rights and constructing religious identities, religious communities have come into a competition for public support and resources. This competition not only divides the communities into indigenous versus non-indigenous forms but also compels the indigenous religions to go into redefinition and revival in order to resist the non-indigenous religions. Keywords: Secularity, religious indoctrination, religious identity, Nepal. 1. Introduction From pre-historic time Hinduism has been the dominant religion in Nepal. Hindu texts suggest that a state is impossible without a king, and therefore Hinduism not only became royal religion but also got protection from the state and thus achieved a dominant position. Under the dominance of Hinduism as the state religion, practicing non-indigenous religion was almost impossible because practicing non-traditional religion was considered religious conversion and was later banned.

    Female Emancipation or Pativrata? A Qualitative Study of Women’s Leadership in Rituals at Assi Ghat, Varanasi Kvinnlig frigörelse eller Pativrata? En kvalitativ studie av kvinnligt ledarskap i ritualer på Assi Ghat i Varanasi Alexsandra Hallén The University of Karlstad Religion Religion III 15hp Supervisor: Katarina Plank Examiner: Tomas Appelqvist 2020-06-05 Title: Female Emancipation or Pativrata?: A qualitative study of female leadership and participation in rituals at Assi Ghat, Varanasi. Titel på svenska: Kvinnlig frigörelse eller Pativrata?: En kvalitativ studie av kvinnligt ledarskap och deltagande i ritualer på Assi Ghat i Varanasi. Author: Alexsandra Hallén Pages: 42 Abstract: The aim of this study was to explore the purposes and effects of women’s leadership in rituals in relation to their social and religious role in society. This was carried out by using qualitative methods and analyzing the data by using ritual theory and theories on religion and gender. The interviews and observations focused on two rituals carried out by women: the Partiv Puja and the Chhath Puja. The results show that women participate in the rituals for religious, cultural, and social reasons, and that their participation in the rituals could be viewed as a reclaim of the public space of religious practice. Furthermore, the women’s participation and leadership in rituals could also, from a ritual theoretic perspective, be viewed as a tool to refuse and change social power structures. The research was carried out in Varanasi, India, during an eight-week Minor Field Study and the study was performed by using observations and interviews, which were conducted between the 21st of October and the 2nd of December 2018.
