क्यों करते है लोग यहां कुत्तों की पूजा 😳|| Kukur Tihar || Dog's festival || Diwali ||

Kukur Tihar, also known as Narak Chaturdashi, is a Hindu festival in Nepal that honors dogs on the second day of the five-day Tihar festival, which takes place around October or November.

On Kukur Tihar, people worship dogs as messengers of Yama, the god of death, and to appreciate their loyalty and companionship. Dogs are decorated with tilaka, a traditional marking on their foreheads, and flower garlands around their necks. People also offer them various foods including meat, milk, eggs, and dog food. It is considered a sin if someone acts disrespectfully to a dog on this day

The festival has its origins in Hindu mythology. According to one version of the legend, two dogs, dubbed Syama and Sabala, had four eyes and guarded the supernatural trail that led to Yama. It is also believed that dogs wait for us at the gates of heaven and once we die they guide our souls through.

If you cannot celebrate Kukur Tihar in Nepal, you can celebrate it wherever you are by donating food to your local animal shelter or feeding the many strays that roam the roads. You can also volunteer at a shelter and shower the animals with love.
