Hindu Circuit Tours Nepal - 11 Days
Nepal is the only Hindu Kingdom in the world and also a Hindu majority country.
The second largest religion is Buddhism. Hinduism is a multi disciplinary
religion called Shanatan Dharma. The Hindu religion has a large number of Gods
but the Trinity of Gods is considered Supreme. The Trinity of Gods are: Brahma:
The Creator; Vishnu: The Preserver or Savior; and Shiva: The Destroyer. The Gods
are always associated with their consorts. The Gods are not considered complete
without their counterpart i.e. consorts. The three gods represent the three
fundamental powers of nature which are manifest in the world viz. creation,
destruction and maintenance. The Creation is going on all the time and so is the
destruction. And preservation is an integral part of the processes of creation
and destruction.
There are three kinds of Hindu Pilgrimages in Nepal for 1. Lord Shiva 2. Lord
Vishnu, and 3. Ma Shakti. According to Purans Himalaya is home of Lord Shiva and
Parbati. Hence there are many Pilgrimage sites related to Lord Shiva in Nepal.
Pashupati Nath Temple is the Holiest pilgrimage of Lord Shiva. Mt. Kailash is
the mountain of Lord Shiva and it is considered holiest of all holy mountains.
Mt. Kailash is in Tibet near Nepal Tibet border. A mountain with a Temple on its
top is also considered Holy Mountain. There are several Shakti-peeths related to
Durga Ma through out Nepal. Dakhinkali and Guheswori are most famous
Shakti-peeths of Kathmandu valley. Other important Shakti-peeths are Pathibhara,
Shaileswori, Vindyavashini, Mankamana, Jogeshwori, etc. Such Shakti-peeths are
usually situated on the top of a mountain. The confluence of rivers,
particularly when they are major tributaries of the Ganges, is always regarded
as religiously significant by Hindus, as it is believed a third spiritual river
also joins. Such confluence is called Triveni.
