living goddess Kumari devi Kathmandu Nepal

shared by Uma Shankari on 30 Jan 11 - No Cached
  • Kumari Devi is chosen from among girls 3–5 years old belonging to the Buddhist Shakya clan. Her horoscope is thoroughly analyzed, her looks passed through magnifying glasses to ensure that they satisfy the 32 ‘samudrika lakshanas‘ or rules that determine facial beauty. Her mental strength is tested too by confining her overnight in a room which contain the remains of esoteric tantric rituals in the form of severed heads of goats and buffaloes around which men wearing demon masks dance. Only if she remains calm and composed despite her tender age, she will be considered the incarnation of Durga.

    Do you think the decision of parents to send their baby daughters to become a living goddess is a violation of children's rights?

DHR Darjeeling Himalayan Railway

shared by Uma Shankari on 24 Aug 12 - No Cached
  • Nicknamed the “Toy Train”, the train is powered by a steam engine and runs on a track made narrow to help the train go through safely the sharp turns of the hills.
  • The train runs on a 2 ft (610 mm) narrow-gauge railway, going from an elevation of 100 m (328 ft) at Siliguri to about 2,200 m (7,218 ft) at Darjeeling. As the line had to overcome an ascent of 7,000 ft. in less than fifty miles, it has a series of zig zags and loops to gain height.

    "The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is a line so close to the people that it flows like a river through their lives. The line runs on roads that pass through markets and village main streets! "
