Ahead of Dashain Festival, Assortment palanquin arrives in Kathmandu

Oct 23, 2023

Kathmandu (Nepal), Oct 23 (ANI): A palanquin containing flowers and other offerings commonly called the Phulpati arrived at the courtyard of Basantapur Durbar Square Dashain Ghar from Gorkha Durbar. The Gorkha Durbar, a former Royal Palace that hosted Prithivi Narayan Shah, the unifier of modern Nepal has continued to send offerings honouring age-old traditions. Phulpati, an assortment of flowers, leaves and fruits of different plants, is considered auspicious and is anointed at Dashain Ghar on the seventh day of the fortnightly festival of Dashain. The Phulpati is carried to Kathmandu as per the Vedic rites to be anointed at the Dashain Ghar, Hanumandhoka Durbar in line with the time-honoured tradition. A palanquin bearing the Phulpati is dispatched each year from Gorkha Dashainghar on the seventh day of Dashain. Though the Dashain festival begins from Ghatasthapana, the festival sees special fervour from the day of Phulpati. All government as well as private offices in Nepal are closed down from today encouraging people to go back to their respective ancestral homes and take blessings from Durga Bhawani as well as their elders.
