Goddess of Nepal
Matani Shakya, 3, newly appointed 'kumari,' or living goddess in Nepal, looks on as farewell rituals are performed before taking her to kumari house in Katmandu, Nepal, Tuesday, Oct. 7, 2008. Selected between the ages of 2 and 4, living goddesses are worshipped by both Hindus and Buddhists. Devotees touch the girls' feet with their foreheads, the highest sign of respect among Hindus in Nepal. During religious festivals the girls are wheeled around on a chariot pulled by devotees.

Re: Goddess of Nepal
fashinating.......discovering cultures,traditions and rituals always was something bringing excitement to my life. I wonder if the girl has any clue of what is going on,if she is frightened or if she sees it as a game... :-126-:
