  • River Culture in Nepal
    Nepalese Culture Vol. XIV : 1-12, 2021 Central Department of NeHCA, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal DOI: https://doi.org/10.3126/nc.v14i0.35187 River Culture in Nepal Kamala Dahal- Ph.D Associate Professor, Patan Multipal Campus, T.U. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Most of the world civilizations are developed in the river basins. However, we do not have too big rivers in Nepal, though Nepalese culture is closely related with water and rivers. All the sacraments from birth to the death event in Nepalese society are related with river. Rivers and ponds are the living places of Nepali gods and goddesses. Jalkanya and Jaladevi are known as the goddesses of rivers. In the same way, most of the sacred places are located at the river banks in Nepal. Varahakshetra, Bishnupaduka, Devaghat, Triveni, Muktinath and other big Tirthas lay at the riverside. Most of the people of Nepal despose their death bodies in river banks. Death sacrement is also done in the tirthas of such localities. In this way, rivers of Nepal bear the great cultural value. Most of the sacramental, religious and cultural activities are done in such centers. Religious fairs and festivals are also organized in such a places. Therefore, river is the main centre of Nepalese culture. Key words: sacred, sacraments, purity, specialities, bath. Introduction The geography of any localities play an influencing role for the development of culture of a society. It affects a society directly and indirectly. In the beginning the nomads passed their lives for thousands of year in the jungle.

  • Review of High Altitude Wetlands Initiatives in Nepal - Jhamak B.Karki*
    Review of High Altitude Wetlands Initiatives in Nepal - Jhamak B.Karki* 1. Introduction: High altitude wetlands are the freshwater storehouses of millions of people living downstream. However, Nepal has recently initiated preparation of inventories of these high altitude wetlands. Due to its physiographical situation, Nepals wetlands are classified in 3 categories as high altitude wetlands, midhill wetlands and tarai wetlands as follows: 1.1. Himalaya: The mountain area was mapped by Mool et al 2002 who listed 2,323 glacial lakes above 3,500 m. This may contain numerous fresh water wetlands, as these will turn in to glacial lakes in the winter and melt during summer representing fresh water lakes. The inventory of high altitude wetlands has been initiated but the national wide survey of the wetlands incorporating the existing works of all the regions has not been attempted comprehensively in Nepal. 1.2. Midhill: Yet neither the mid hill sites have been listed for Ramsar site nor the specific programs focusing interventions have been implemented. The only site that received small intervention is Mai Pokhari (Ilam) from The East Foundation (TEF) who has helped district forest office and the community forest user group to prepare the Ramsar Information Sheet (RIS). RIS has to be forwarded to the Ministry of Forests and Soil Conservation for proposing any site in to Ramsar nomination. Ministry has forwarded RIS of Maipokhari wetland for Government approval to the cabinet by Ministry of Forests and Soil Conservation. 1.3. Tarai: The inventory of Tarai and mid hills wetlands has been initiated by IUCN resulting 163 in Tarai and 79 in mid-hills (IUCN 1996).
