The History of Hinduism in Nepal right from the roots to the fruits explained

Historians and local customs say that a Hindu sage named "Ne" laid down a good foundation for himself in the valley of Kathmandu during ancient times, and that "Nepal" signifies "the protected region" ("pala" meaning region in Nepalese). He performed strict religious services at Teku, the Bagmati and Bishnumati rivers' confluence. As indicated by legends, he chose a devout cowherd to be the first of the numerous rulers of the Gopala line. These rulers are said to have managed Nepal for more than 500 years. He chose Bhuktaman to be the main ruler in the line of the Gopal (Cowherd) tradition. The Gopala line ruled for a considerable length of time. Yakshya Gupta was the last ruler of this line.


As per Skanda Purana, a rishi called "Ne" or "Nemuni" used to live in the Himalayas. In the Pashupati Purana, he is referenced as a holy person and a defender. He is said to have rehearsed penance at the Bagmati and Kesavati rivers and to have taught his doctrines there as well. The pennant that flutters on Hindu temples in Nepal is a significant Hindu symbol. Famous practice in the country holds that Lord Vishnu had coordinated with the Nepali public and gave them their banner, with the sun and moon as insignias on it. In a Hindu Purana, it is composed that it was Lord Shiva who gave the banner to Lord Vishnu, and afterward Lord Vishnu to Lord Indra, for the reason for defeating devils.

The word Chanda alludes to unprecedented attributes and hence alludes to the Brahman, who is uncommon because of its complete autonomy concerning time and space. The word Chandi additionally alludes to the searing force of outrage of the Brahman. Bhaskararaya, the main expert on issues concerning Devi love, characterizes Chandi as 'the furious, horrendous or enthusiastic one'. 


  1. Lord Kubera: Lord Kubera is the 'financier of the divine beings' and 'lord of Yaksha'. He is a genuine portrayal of riches, flourishing, and greatness. Master Kubera circulates, yet in addition, keeps up with and monitors every one of the fortunes of this universe. Subsequently, he is otherwise called the gatekeeper of wealth. 'Kubera' in Sanskrit implies poorly Shaped or distorted. Thus, according to the significance of the name, Lord Kubera is depicted as having a fat and stout body.

Q2. Who is the guardian deity of Nepal?


Shiva is broadly viewed as the guardian divinity of Nepal.


India, and its religion Hinduism, has had the largest influence over Nepalese art and sculpture. Despite the modern-day prevalence of Buddhism in Nepal, Hindu sculptures are also made by the region's artisans. To devotees it does not matter where or by who a work of art has been made, as long as it serves its spiritual function as an icon and a meditative aid; but to the connoisseur of spiritual art and iconography, the complexities and resulting aesthetics of the origin of a work of art is very relevant. In this section is curated a collection of Hindu deities sculpted in Nepal by local artisans, in keeping with the sensitivity and worldview of the Nepalese sculptural tradition. The icons come with idealised features of Nepalese men and women, since it is thought that the respective cross-religious devotees could identify with an entity that resembles oneself (this of course does not apply to wrathful deities).


Because of the similarities between India's Hinduism and Nepal's Buddhism, and the iconographies in question, it is difficult to distinguish between sculptures of the same deity made in Nepal and in India. Certain elements like flowing vines to frame the composition, relatively simple or single-layered pedestals, and taut graceful facial features indicate the Nepalese origin of the Hindu sculptures in this section. Modern-day Nepalese artisans follow older sculptural styles long established in India, and given that the emphasis is on upholding tradition as opposed to establishing an individual style. The Nepalese influences are more discernible in the unconventional-medium sculptures such as wood and signature gilded copper.
