The photo of Rato Machhendranath, the god of rain and time, will be displayed today. Bhoto Jatra was called Jawalakhel Jatra till about 800 years ago. Kirtimdan Joshi, a former member of Nepal Panchang Adjudicatory Development Committee, who has been active in observing the site of Rato Machhendranath's Bhoto Jatra, said that it is called Javlakhel Jatra because it is used for sowing rice.
It is believed that this pilgrimage was done to give food to ghosts and ghosts. The exact date of the start of Voto Jatra has not yet been discovered she said.
Machhendranath's journey started about 1,300 years ago. According to the legend, after this journey had started, the queen of Nagaraja Karkotaka's eyes hurt. Karkotak went in search of Vaidya. He took the farmer who was working in the field as a doctor and took him to Naglok or Toudah.
The frightened farmer prayed to Machhendranath and folded his hands and gave Mayal to Karkotak as a medicine. The medicine cured Rani's eye pain. As a reward, the mani was given to the farmer and sent back to the human world. Farmers started working by keeping the seeds in the fields.
A ghost in the form of a human came and took the vote. Farmers looked for it, but did not find it. The farmer claimed that when he went to see Machhendranath's pilgrimage, he saw that a ghost in the form of a human was wearing the voto he had received as a reward. When the ghost refused to give, there was a dispute. Karkotak Nag was also called and questioned. In the end, it was concluded that both of them could not be the officers of the vote, and Machhendranath was entrusted with it.
After completing the Rath Yatra of Rato Machhendranath to give votes to those who come with official proofs, the tradition of voting votes started. It is believed that every year since that year, the vote will be shown. There is a legend that no one has been able to collect evidence and take the vote.
Lately, representatives of Guthi Sansthan Lalitpur have been making pilgrimages to show their votes in the presence of the President. On this occasion, the government has given a public holiday in Kathmandu Valley today.
