acred Mayadevi Gardens! Lumbini in Nepal

Mayadevi Temple is one of the important sites in the Lumbini Garden with many historians and archaeologists referring to it as the place of birth of Lord Buddha. Inscriptions on the Ashoka Pillar also refers the spot as his birthplace. It is said that here the newly born Prince took his first seven steps and gave a peace message to humanity. This happened in the beautiful Sal grove, which is now the focal point of the Lumbini Garden. Mayadevi, the Queen of Shakya King Suddhodhana of Kapilvastu, while passing through the Lumbini Garden, on the day of Baishakha Purnima (full moon day of May in 623 BC) took a bath in the Pushkarini (the Sacred Pond) and soon after she took support of a tree branch, and gave birth to the Prince Siddhartha, who became the Buddha. Visit beautiful monasteries built by different Buddhist countries like China, Japan, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Germany and observe the different architecture and prayer areas. Soak up the peaceful atmosphere and above all visit the Mayadevi Temple which dates back to 2,200 years, which archaeological evidence proclaim as the birthplace of Siddhartha Gautam or Lord Buddha in 623 BC. You can walk around the garden or find a peaceful meditative spot to contemplate. The focal point for pilgrims is a sandstone carving depicting the birth of the Buddha, reputedly left here by the Malla King Ripu Malla, in the 14th century, when Mayadevi was worshipped as an incarnation of the Hindu mother goddess. Another main attraction is the Ashokan Pillar, which was built by the great Indian Emperor Ashoka while visiting the birthplace of Buddha back in 249 BC. One can visit the Panditarama Vipassana Center for some yoga and meditation and interact with the monks, who live in the vicinity of the monasteries , devoting their time to balancing the environment with religious worship. The Lumbini Garden covers an area of 2.56 sq km or 1 x 3 sq miles and encompasses three zones each covering one square mile connected with walkways and a canal. The area has sub tropical monsoon climate with warm wet season. If you are planning on traveling to exotic places in South Asia looking to find some Nirvana, then do not miss Lumbini in Nepal.

Destination Nepal
Arrive: Kathmandu
Depart: Kathmand

Our homeland is exotic- nothing like anything out there; its people, culture, architecture and most of all our pride and joy, the Himalayas roofing the world! So come, follow us ...into the Himalayas we know so well. We will take you on journeys of discovery – from ancient places where the dark nights mysteriously come alive with colourful local dances; into the mountains, pristine, pure and breathtakingly beautiful, onto wild sanctuaries where tigers prowl and elephants become your transport! Sprite of Buddha:

Embark on a journey to reawaken yourself and reaffirm the existence of Buddhism to its birthplace. From the birth of Lord Buddha (Siddhartha Gautama) in a pond in Lumbini, Buddhism has spread and adapted from its roots in Nepal to virtually every corner of the world. Buddhism offers a path, which provides guidelines for everyday living and for a caring approach to the environment. It shows us the way to live in harmony with others and the world we live in. This trail will take you to UNESCO World Heritage Sites, like Swayambhunath Stupa & Boudhanath Stupa (built around 5th century AD) that stand tall in the heart of the country showing how prominent and powerful Buddhism is to the world today. Like the monasteries sheltering nuns and monks are located in Namoboudha, Pharping and Lumbini. Because in Albert Einstein’s words "if there is any religion that would cope with modern scientific needs it would be Buddhism". Detailed Itinerary

Day-01: Arrival in Kathmandu
Namaste & Welcome to Nepal! On arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport, a Yeti Holidays’ representative will greet you at the airport and es**rt you to your hotel and help you check in.

One of the oldest and the biggest Buddhist monuments ever built in Nepal; Boudhanath is one of the holiest structures imposing a height of 36 meters with three massive level Mandala style platforms. It is surrounded by colourful buildings housing families creating a friendly enclosure. The Stupa is visited every year by tens of thousands of pilgrims from all over the world. Day-02: Sunrise from Dhulikhel & visit to Namo Bouddha

Breakfast at hotel. Dhulikhel: The spectacular snowed mountains seen from Dhulikhel must be one of the finest panoramic views in the world. When a blue haze covers the lower portion of the mountains, they seem to be floating in the air. With the snowy mountains on the backdrop, Dhulikhel is a stage of immense beauty and a paradise for nature lovers. Green inviting hills of beautifully carved agricultural terraces cater to the beholders' pleasure. Namo Bouddha:
Founded at the site where “the future Buddha sacrificed his body to a tigress” in 1978, it was a small retreat center that has now grown into a large monastery. The site is supremely sacred to Tibetan Buddhists where the perfect and supreme Buddha – at that time still on the path of learning – offered his own body without regret to a tigress and her four cubs suffering from great hunger. This legendary episode is depicted in a very nice stone slab and placed right next to a holy Stupa. On the way, if you are visiting during summer and monsoon, you will get to see how Nepalese People plant and harvest the crop. Kathmandu City:
Kasthamandap, the source of the name Kathmandu means ‘made from the timber of a single tree’. Also known as Kantipur, the capital Kathmandu is the hub of Nepal's art and culture. It is a place for rest, relaxation and easy-day sightseeing of historic and artistic temples and monuments. Kathmandu Durbar Square with its arrays of temples and the ancient palaces of the former Nepali Royals enriches your experience of the centuries old civilisation. Swoyambhunath:
Said to be around 2000 years old, this Buddhist Stupa sits atop a hill. The main stupa is composed of a solid hemisphere of brick and earth supporting a lofty conical spire crowned by a pinnacle of Copper gilt. Painted on the four sided base of the spire are the all seeing eyes of Lord Buddha. The hill of Swayambhu is a mosaic of small Chaityas and Pagoda temples.

पशुपतिनाथको मन्दिर र पाशुपत क्षेत्र प्राचीनकालदेखि नै विश्वभरका सनातन हिन्दूको श्रद्धा र आस्थाको केन्द्रबिन्दु एवं पवित्र तीर्थस्थलका रूपमा रहिआएको छ ।

पाशुपत क्षेत्रका दर्शनीय मन्दिरहरू

वत्सलेश्वरी–आर्यघाट र भस्मेश्वरको बीचमा वागमती किनारमा वत्सलेश्वरीको सुन्दर दूईतले मन्दिर छ । यहाँ मूर्ति नभएर यन्त्र मात्र छ र सिद्धिकालीका रुपमा यिनको पूजा हुन्छ । वत्सलेश्वरीको जात्रा पशुपति क्षेत्रमा मनाइने सबैभन्दा मुख्य जात्रा हो र यो जात्रा प्रत्येक वर्ष चैत्र कृष्ण चतुर्दशीदेखि चारदिनसम्म धूमधामले मनाइन्छ ।

विश्वरुप– मृगस्थलीको पूर्वछेउमा वनको बीचमा राजपूताना गुम्बज शैलीको भव्य र विशाल विश्वरूपा मन्दिर छ । जंगबहादुरको समयमा ई. १८६७ अघि नै बनेको यस मन्दिरमा शिवशक्तिको रतावस्थाको अत्यन्त विशाल ढलौटे मूर्ति प्रतिष्ठित छ। यो मन्दिर चौघराले घेरिएको छ र चौघराभित्र चार कुनामा शिवपार्वती, लक्ष्मीनारायण, सीताराम र राधाकृष्णका ढलौटका युगलमूर्तिहरू थापिएका छन् । अनन्तनारायण–वत्सलेश्वरीको मन्दिरसँगै सम्पूर्ण रूपमा टेराकोटाबाट बनेको अनन्तनारायणको उभिएको विशाल मूर्ति छ । मल्लकालको यो मूर्ति पाशुपत क्षेत्रको दर्शनीय मूर्तिहरू मध्ये एक हो ।

किरातेश्वर महादेव–पशुपति मन्दिर पारी पट्टी, गौरीघाटको माथि डाँडामा रहेको किरातेश्वर मन्दिर पाशुपत क्षेत्रको अर्को दर्शन गर्नै पर्ने मन्दिर हो। यसको स्थापना किरातकालिन पालामा भएको हो । यहाँ भगवान शंकरले किरातेश्वरको रूप धारण गरेर बसेको हुनाले मन्दिरको नाम किरातेश्वर रहन गएको किंवदन्ती छ ।

गुह्येश्वरी–बागमती नदीको दक्षिणी किनारामा यो मन्दिर अवस्थित छ । सतीदेवीको गुहृय पतन भएको ठाउँमा उत्पन्न भएकी देवी हुनाले गुहृयेश्वरी नाम रहन गएको विश्वास गरिन्छ ।

यो स्थानमा सर्वप्रथम तेत्तीसकोटी देवताहरू पूजा–आराधना गरेको विश्वास पनि छ । घटस्थापनादेखि नै गुहृयेश्वरीमा विशेष पूजा आराधना गरिन्छ । यहाँ देवीहरूको कुनै मूर्ति छैन । सतीदेवीको गुह्य पतन भएको स्थानमा मन्दिरको गर्भगृह छ । त्यहाँ एउटा सानो दुलो मात्र छ जहा चाँदीको कलशले ढाकिएको मन्दिरभित्रको जलपूर्ण कुण्डलाई श्रद्धालुहरू देवीका रूपमा पूजा गर्ने गर्दछन् । गुहृयेश्वरीको महिमा नेपाल माहात्म्य, हिमवत्खण्ड, श्रीस्वस्थानी व्रतकथा आदिमा बताइएको छ ।

यो शक्तिपीठ पु‍राणमा वर्णित ५१ शक्तिपीठहरू मध्ये एक भएकोले सारा संसारका धर्मालम्बीहरूका लागि विशेष पुजनीय रहेको छ । यहाँ सतीदेवीको योनी पतन भएको किम्बदन्ति छ ।

यस्तै बौद्ध तन्त्रको स्वरूपविहीन स्वरूप वा स्कन्दपुराणको हिमवत्खण्ड (नेपाल महात्म्यमा)मा तथा भाषा वंशावलीमा, सतीदेवीको गुहृयपतन भएको श्लेष्मान्तक वनमा भगवती गुहृयेश्वरीको उत्पत्ति भएको वर्णन पाइन्छ । परम्पराअनुसार पुराणमा उल्लेखित यस पीठको स्वरूप पहिले जलमग्न रूपमा गुप्त नै थियो पछि प्रताप मल्ल (ने.सं. ७६२(७९४) का समकालीन तान्त्रिक नरसिंह ठाकुरले गुहृयदेवीको यस स्थानमा दर्शन पाएर पूजा–उपासना गरेको वर्णन पाइन्छ ।

गुहृयेश्वरी भनेको र ’गुहृया’ शक्तिका नामले चिनिने स्त्री, पुरुष र नपुंसकसमेतबाट वन्दनीय ’काली’ स्वरूपमा यिनलाई ’गुहृय काली’ समेत भनिन्छ ।
