Preparation of the Tamu Loshar going quickly
Tamu Lhosar, the New Year festival of the Gurung community in Nepal, is celebrated with great enthusiasm and cultural significance. Preparation for this vibrant festival begins weeks in advance, as families clean and decorate their homes, symbolizing a fresh start. Traditional foods such as sel roti, khapse, and various meat delicacies are prepared in abundance. People gather to practice cultural dances and songs, ensuring a lively celebration. Special prayers and rituals are performed at monasteries to seek blessings for prosperity and well-being. Markets bustle with people buying new clothes, especially the traditional Gurung attire, while invitations are sent to relatives and friends for grand feasts. The festival, usually held on the 15th of Poush (late December or early January), marks the transition of the Gurung calendar year, and preparations reflect the deep-rooted traditions and unity of the community.
