Sithi Nakha:

On regard Sithi Na:Kha (सिठी न: ख )as the day of cleaning the dug well, while others regard it as the day of eating “Wo” In truth, there is no proof as to when or why it began. This civilization, however, is said to be Licchavi Era (400-750 AD). This celebration, which falls on the 6th day of Nepal Sambat Tachalathwa, marks the beginning of the monsoon season. Water sources such as dug wells, wells, ponds, and other bodies of water are cleaned when the monsoon approaches.

All of the water in the dug well has been removed, as has all of the rubbish, and the water has been kept from draining for four days. As a result, this celebration is also known as a cleaning festival. On this day, King Yaksha Malla is supposed to have given an order to purify all water sources.

Kumar’s prasad is referred to as “Wo” (a type of special pancake ) in this Samaybaji, and Chatmari is required to be consumed. Bacteria begin to multiply when the monsoon season begins, according to science. Because these bacteria enter our bodies primarily through water, we must ensure that water sources are clean, and we must have a robust immune system to combat such infections.

Protein, iron, and carbs included in “Wo” and Chatmari can help to enhance your immune system. As a result, the custom of eating “WO” Chatamari has persisted. Today is Digupuja‘s last day, according to legend (Dewali). Siddhi Kumar is now worshiped in Kathmandu at Jaisi Dewal, and Sithin Bakha is venerated in Bhaktapur in Madhyapur-Thimi. The wagon, buckets, and other objects discovered when cleaning the dug well are customarily paid for in Madhyapur-Thimi. With that money, sanitation work is carried out.
