The evil beings, ‘Daityas’ started destroying humans and the natural balance was threatened. Then the god “Bhairava” came down to Earth with other divine bodies to destroy those evil beings for restoring peace and to maintain the natural balance. (18/51)

Venue: Bhaktapur Night 2006 Nepal, Central Region, Bagmati Zone, Dhimen Pyakhan: Newars celebrated every significant moment with great vigour. Whenever there is something to celebrate and enjoy, they gather and start dancing to the beats of the traditional drum, “Dhimen”. “Dhimen” beats are loud and make people jump to their feet. If interested, we request our guests to join in the dance. One has the freedom of moving in anyway with the beats. With some alcohol, the joy of the dance is enhanced for sure. (1/7)
Venue: Bhaktapur Night 2006 Nepal, Central Region, Bagmati Zone, Buran Jya: During the Malla Regime, Bhaktapur waged a war with Tibet. Tibetians on their victory spree came to defeat Bhaktapur. The Malla kings were scared and advised all country men to dump all the rice in store under the earth so that the Tibetians could not take them away. After many days of war, the Tibetians fled. Everyone was worried about feeding the people because all the rice had been dumped. The king advised the people to go and check the dumped rice. The rice had turned dark brown and it was not to be eatable or not. On trying it out they found that the rice had grown more delicious and nutritious. Celebrating this occasion, every year farmers in Bhaktapur prepare this brown rice and bring them home in a joyous manner. This process is known as ‘Buran Jya’. (1/8)
