The Kisan Caste living only in Jhapa, the far eastern district of Nepal, is an indigenous tribe of Terai origin. According to the Adivasi Janajati Utthan Rashtriya Pratisthan Act, 2058 BS, out of 59 Adivasi Janajatis listed, this caste has been placed in the endangered group. This caste, which has been excluded from the mainstream of the state, has been portrayed by various scholars as the indigenous son of Nepal.

According to the 2068 census, the population of Kisan is 1,739. This caste, which is backward due to economic, social, political and educational reasons, is on the verge of extinction in Nepal. Looking at the religion, culture, traditions, etc. that they believe in, this caste looks like a nature worshiper. Kisan, known as a malaria-free caste, initially settled in deforestation.

This caste, which wants to live separately from other castes, is currently forced to relocate from its ancestral land due to the rapid migration of other castes. At the same time, the influence of other cultures has led to the disappearance of religion and culture of this caste. They are currently living in Shantinagar, Dhaijan, Bahundangi, Anarmani VDC and Mechinagar Municipality of Jhapa District.

Language of Kisan Caste

The language spoken by the Kisan Caste is called ‘Kisan Bhasha’. This language does not have its own script. Therefore, they use the Devanagari script as a written tradition. According to the census of 2058 BS, there are 489 speakers of Kisan language. However, the official organization of the peasant caste is of the opinion that the number of speakers of peasant language is more than that number. Apart from the peasant community, this language is also spoken by other castes of Jhapa district (Munda, Khadiya, Uravan, Rautiya, Kawar, Malpahade, Gwal, Karuwa).

However, among them Munda, Khadiya and Uravan have their own mother tongue. Therefore, this language has been established as the language of communication among the mentioned tribals. The language spoken by the peasant community was placed under the Dravidian family by linguists Mark Turin and Dr. Yogendra Prasad Yadav (see Turin and Yadav, 2005).

However, the archiving conducted jointly by the Adivasi Janajati Utthan Rashtriya Pratisthan Jawalakhel, Lalitpur and the Central Department of Linguistics, Tribhuvan University, Kirtipur has confirmed that the Kisan language belongs to the Bharopeli family. Various materials in this language are being published twice a month on the New Nepal page of Gorkhapatra daily. Apart from Nepal, this language is also spoken in India and Bhutan.

Similarly, according to MS Thapa Magar, author of the ancient Magar and Akkha scripts, the Magars migrated to the Indian subcontinent from the Pamirs of China about 4,000 years ago during the Stone Age or Hunting Age. And, in the long run, with the beginning of the era of animal husbandry and agriculture, they entered Nepal from the far west and north, looking for a suitable place to make a living.

Background of Jirel Community

Jirel Community  is a branch of the Kirat caste that has been living in Jiri VDC of Dolakha district and its adjoining VDCs since time immemorial. The origin of this community, which has its own language, customs and culture, has been considered as Jiri VDC of Dolakha district. In ancient times, while the Kiratis were migrating to the eastern hills of Nepal, the descendants of Myla Surasingh, one of the five nephews and sons of Sundarbir, came and settled in the area including the present Jiri, while some brothers moved to Suri VDC in the present Dolakha district.

Later, the descendants of these Kiratis came to be known as Jirel by the name of a special place. They are known as Jirel caste. Thus the Jirel race is believed to have originated.

Being a Kirati caste, there are still places called Kirati Khasa (house building) and Kirati Thursa (grave) in Jiri VDC. There are also arrows, bows and shields used by the Kirats at that time. On the other hand, in Kirat Dharma (nature worship), the Jirel caste has been worshiping nature like air, fire and earth. These customs have been worshiped by the Jirel people as their deities under the names of ‘Chen Chyotchya’, ‘Chyomu Chyotchya’, ‘Nangi Lha’, ‘Charmane’ and ‘Bhume’.

About 95 percent of the Jirels in Dolakha district speak Jirel language. In other districts, the language is being forgotten by later generations. They do not have their own script.

In the past, the Jirel priests used the Phombo priest to perform religious ceremonies. Although the Jirels have a tradition of worshiping the deity according to the Kirat religion, they have been celebrating Hindu festivals with the same faith. Nowadays, the Jirels have been performing rituals of birth, marriage and death according to Buddhism. The Jirels are surrounded by lamas at the death rites.

The Gurung caste is also one of the castes listed by the Government of Nepal as an indigenous tribe in Nepal. The true origin of this caste lies in the area between Kaligandaki and Budhigandaki in the present Gandak region.

According to the legends and documents related to the Gurungs, the cultural development of the Gurung community took place around the present day Mongolia 1400 years ago. Crossing various geographies, passing through the Annapurna Himal of Nepal, passing through the present-day Dolpa, Mugu, Mustang and Manang, moving from Rumjatar of Sankhuwasabha to Madikharka Taplejung of Dhankuta, Panchthar, Ilam, Sikkim, and Sikkim. Is spread out.

It is mentioned in the history that the Gurung caste, who were considered to be honest and straightforward, were forced to lead various forts, thum and forts in the east. During the reign of Kazi Abhiman Singh Basnyat, the stubborn Chambasin Gurung of Solu conquered V.S. It is mentioned in the history that after returning to the Tista river in 1872 BS with his army, he washed his weapons in the river Tista with shields, daggers, khukari and swords. These weapons are still kept in the house of Colonel Khadkasin Gurung, a son of Chambasin, a resident of Siliguri.

Thus, the Gurungs living in the East left their original language and script due to the fact that they were gradually forgetting their original language, creed, culture and religion in order to fulfill the values, titles and responsibilities given by the then ruling classes. Religions, deeds and cultures were abandoned. Due to which the Gurungs living in this area till today do not know how to speak and write their mother tongue.

Language

This nation has its own mother tongue and script. However, as mentioned above, the Gurungs who entered the East in different periods do not speak their original languages ​​for various reasons. After the historic Jana Andolan 2046, in search of their language, religion, deeds, rituals and cultures, the Gurung castes living in the east have also started performing their religion, funeral culture or rituals from birth to death according to Buddhism.

Culture

Gurungs are a people who are liberated in heart, supportive of each other, sociable, and often enjoy dancing. Unlike the Gurungs in the west, the custom of singing in Rodhi is not in the east. Ghatu, Sorathi, Ghatuchatu, and Ghondi dances are also not danced. While singing in this way, Devi, Devta, Deurali, Bhanjyang, Kholanala, Bhirpahara present the experiences of their country and region in a more enjoyable way. The story of the grief caused by the hurricane and hurricane, the pain of having to live in a cowshed without food, the shepherds playing the tungna, the shepherds playing the tungna, the shepherds in the folk rhythm, the village shells, the house, the shepherds asking for salt, rice and corn flour.

However, at present, the profession is in crisis due to lack of sheep grazing area and emigration of youths. Although it is a common practice in this caste to marry Mama Chela and Fupu Chela, in recent times, due to education, Poo Puchela and Mamachela do not get married in this region.

Profession

The main occupation of this caste is agriculture. Sheep rearing has been a fundamental occupation since time immemorial. Men’s main occupation is sheep rearing and women’s weaving and weaving are the main occupations. Men also make doko, dalo and deli from the choya of Malingo Nigalo. The Radhi Pakhi, Ghumradi and Lukuni Gurung communities hanging in the eastern vernacular originated from the same profession. It is mentioned that the place of origin of the famous Pathibhara Devi of Taplejung district was also discovered by this community while adopting this profession.

According to the above mentioned entrepreneur of the temple, the profession is in crisis due to lack of footsteps, emigration of youths, etc.

Costume

This race has its own original dress. In the densely populated Gurung settlements, Aile also wears her original attire. But the Gurungs of the East use it only for good and bad deeds.

Religion

The Gurungs follow the Bon religion as their original religion. His total priests perform their rites with pojyu and ghabriddhara. Gurungs like Ghabre, Panjo, Rila, Koke and Telaija, who are considered to be of four castes, except Lama, Lamichhane, Ghale and Ghotane, who used to consider them as four castes, used to use their traditional priests Pojyu and Jhakri Ghabri instead. But after 2046 BS, Buddhism has been the main religion of the Gurung community in the East. However, before that, the Gurungs used to worship Simebhume (Saldo-Naldo) mother, father, river, nature.

During the Baishakh Purnima and Mansir Purnima, it was customary for the family members to sacrifice goats and chickens only at the top of the house. It was then customary to distinguish between the good and the bad of one’s family by looking at the liver of a sacrificed animal or chicken. After 2046 BS, the Gurungs of this region have removed the Lama priest to worship the wind.

Must Read

After the Lama Gurus flew Jhinsa in their own way, now the Gurungs do not worship the wind. Nowadays, rites from birth to death are performed by lamaddhara and worship is done in the monasteries on special days. Every year, the Lhosar festival is celebrated on the 15th of Poush. There is no mention of four, twelve and sixteen castes in the eastern Gurungs.

On the evening of the 14th of Poush, the day before Lhosar, it is customary to mourn for the peace and tranquility of one’s home. Kodo makes a paste of flour and makes it delicious at night. It is customary for the lamas to give 9 to 8 knots to the men and 7 to 6 knots to the women.

Numbers 9 and 7 have special significance in the Gurung community. As mentioned above, the historical facts confirm that this community entered Nepal from present-day Mongolia. That is why in the Mongolian language, the 9 digits are called ‘go’ and the owner is called ‘rong’. In order to divide the labor between men and women, the fathers, mothers, clans and clans were also divided.

Nepali Tradition

Since men are divided into 9 fathers, 9 clans, 9 clans and women into 7 mothers, it is customary to wear 9sara 8 knots and 7sara 6 knots as a symbol of the same. Scholars are of the opinion that the owner of the same 9 digits became Gurung while using the word ‘Gorong’. This caste is a primitive or classical language which is called ‘Chonkyui’ by the priests Pazyu and Klepri. According to which ‘you’ means up and ‘mu’ means down. Experts say that the word ‘Tumu’ was derived from the word ‘Tumu’, which means sheep farming and agriculture from top to bottom.

Marriage

Although it is a traditional custom in this community to marry between uncle and disciple, such practice is now being phased out. Earlier, it was customary for uncles and aunts to impose fines on their sons and daughters if they got married elsewhere without consulting each other. Now the practice is being removed. If there is a family for marriage, it is customary for a boy and a girl to get married secretly and for a formal marriage to be arranged by setting a date in the memory of the boy’s side and the girl’s parents.

In case of stolen marriage, the parents of the boy’s side should go to the girl’s house within 7 days with the validity of the stolen road and hand over 100 shells of bread, one khasi, some fee and 1 pathi of liquor. If the girl’s mother and father are happy, it is customary to call their relatives and friends and say badikhana to our daughter. For betrothal, it is customary for the boy’s side and the girl’s side to get engaged by keeping 2 pongs of liquor in the girl’s house to get engaged. If the boy and the girl get together, it is customary to set the date of the wedding by giving gold and silver money to the girl.

On the day of the wedding, the boys take the procession and go to the girl’s house with Naumati Baja, the identity of the Gurungs, the spear, the bursa and the khukuri tied around the waist. In addition, 3 angmile khasi, cell roti as per the demand of the girl’s side and liquor as sagun should be submitted. On the day of the wedding, it is customary for the lamas to make the land and perform the ritual. Here, even in the house of the boy’s side, it is customary to bring the bride in lamas by decorating them according to their clusters.

After the marriage, the bride and groom go to their mother-in-law and father-in-law with bread, alcohol and one khasi for the first vaccination.

Population

According to the National Census of Nepal 2068, there are 283,780 females and 238,861 males in Nepal. There are a total of 522,641 Gurungs in Nepal.

Economics and education

Although the traditional occupations of the Gurung castes in this region are agriculture and sheep rearing, they seem to have moved on to other occupations. Gurungs from the Nepal Police, Armed Police Force, Nepal Army, India and Singapore and the UK are on the way to go abroad for employment, trade and other employment. Due to which they earn money. Gurungs of this region are far ahead in the field of education than in the past.

Death funeral

The last rites of the Gurung castes are performed according to the Lama method. Four days after his death, his brother is cleansed of salt oil. After death, it is customary to bring the site to the forest by Lama method. The dead are often taken to a hill and taken to a public pier for cremation. It is customary for the family of the deceased to burn salt oil for 13 days. At the end of the 13th day, Mama Mawli invites her relatives to a feast. On the last day, it is customary for the Mawlis to put white Tika, Totla and Khada on the nieces and nephews of the Mawals and keep the Panch Bhaladami in the fire. On the 49th day of death, the relatives of the deceased gather again to light the lamp, and in the same way, they also gather for the year and recite the lama and light the lamp in the name of the deceased.

Janai Purnima, According to Hindu religious scriptures, the religious and cultural festival of the Hindus, which falls on the day of Shuklapurnima in the month of July every year, is celebrated in our Hindu society with pomp and ceremony. On this holy day, one day before, one has to take a bath in the morning and take a bath and become pure. As Saun Shulkapurnia is another popular festival, it is also a day of exchanging good wishes for Raksha Bandra Bandi Raksha among relatives and brothers and sisters.

This day is celebrated as Rakshabandhan.Although there are various religious and mythological contexts of Janai Purnia and Rakshabandhan, the meaning of Rakshabandhan is remembered by the days of Janai Purnia. According to the Bhabisya Purana, the victory of Devraj Indra was inspired by the mythical statement that Guru Jupiter had prepared a defense constitution for the protection of all the deities, including Debraj Indra, who had been defeated in the battle of Satya Yuga.

Tradition is still very much for Hindus today Similarly, according to Srimad-Bhagavatam’s Mahapuran, the anxious mother Lakshmi cleverly tied the Raksha Bandhan to her brother and freed Lord Bishnu from the clutches of Danab Raj on the day of Saun Shukla Purni. It is believed that Raksha Bandhan has been practiced since that day According to another legend, Yamadutha tied the rakhi with his sister Yemuna, saying that all those who increase the rakhi of holiness on this day are freed from Yamaduta’s punishment and fear.

Gunhupunhi is celebrated in the Newar community of Kathmandu on this holy day. The fear of informing the farmers about rain and farming through their various voices has led the man-eating bells to go to Dhab on Tuesday. The trend is on. Especially on this day, in the Newar community, it is customary to soak nine vereals mixed with sprouts and eat them after sprouting and feed them to relatives.

Daura Suruwal And Gunyu Choli : Overview

Daura Suruwal and Gunyu Choli are National Dress of Nepal. Nepal is a historical nation. Nepal is also a multilingual, multi-religious, multi-ethnic common flower garden. It is also a sovereign nation with a historical identity. There were many movements in the country at different times but the number of changes seen in the name of change was nothing but zero for all the people. In fact, the national dress was removed many times in Nepal during the Rana period, Panchayat, multi-party system, monarchy, republic, democracy and Manaparitantra, but its value and dignity were never considered.

Daura Suruwal
Daura Suruwal

Nepal can be considered as the focal point of the world’s only hope for a separate identity, originality, language and culture. Looking back at the history of the world, most of the countries of the world are abandoning their original identities with the development and modification of the origin of ancient civilization, culture and language which started with the development of human civilization. In that sense, it is possible that countries in the West are leading the way in change. Today is the age of information technology and internet. Geography has become like a village today.

In the meantime, the whole world has begun to accept the Western culture and the working style of the countries. Its influence can be clearly seen in the Eastern culture as well. Nepal is an original, culturally prosperous nation, but it is also a vivid example of the influx of foreign culture.

gunyu choli
gunyu choli

While Western countries are attacking Nepal’s art, civilization and culture as well as its cultural heritage, we have started accepting it gladly. Even today, the heart-wrenching generation of today’s young generation can be seen everywhere. Every country has its own identity, originality, culture and language. The flag represents the country as well as the identity dress.

Importance Of Daura Suruwal  and Gunyu Choli

Clothing is highly regarded in the dignity and identity of the country. Clothing not only covers the body but also signifies international recognition. Every country’s flag is accompanied by a dress. Even the most developed countries want to make their identity and civilization culture new, isolated and dignified around the world. Development is one side and identity is the other side. Development is necessary but development without identity has no meaning.

Daura suruwal
Daura suruwal

 

There are many richer, more powerful and developed countries in the world than Nepal which make their identity through dress. Nepal is still a developed nation. It is a country of self-respect in the eyes of the world, with Mount Everest on its head and Gautam Buddha in its heart. Despite not being able to pick up the pace of development, Nepal is seen in the world as an independent country with a separate identity. But we are beginning to consider our culture a burden. Development and change can come by selling identity, by selling self-esteem, but self-esteem can never come.

We must be convinced that no money in the world can buy self-esteem and no country can lower Nepal’s self-esteem. But the journey we have taken without this destination will bring us nothing but disgrace. Currently, Nepalis are without clothes. We have a lot of clothes and they may be expensive but that place, that self-esteem can never be taken to heart in these foreign clothes. Exotic attire shines, but where is the identity in wearing national attire?

Gunyu choli

Why the National Dresses Should Be Daura Suruwal And Gunyu Choli?

Such a question is also being raised, but the country will not prosper by changing its face and changing the Western culture, dress and religion, ignoring the centuries-old identity. We must not forget that the transformation we have gained by selling our identities is like the change we have gained by selling our identities.

In the pages of yesterday’s history, the golden letter of the glory and power of Daurasuruwal has not been erased. Looking back at the history of Daurasuruwal, historian Satya Mohaj Joshi says that it can be clearly seen in the statues of historical temples like Patan and Bhaktapur which are even ahead of the Mallakalin kingdom. It is foolish of us to abandon our precious culture and try to adopt a foreign culture.

daura suruwal
daura suruwal

The country is searching for identity, the country is searching for change. The country is still preserving the history that thousands and millions have sacrificed themselves to make history. Forgetting our identity in foreign culture and political interference, we will find nothing but emptiness and darkness where we are running. Why don’t we understand that the world we stand on is a heavenly blissful destination?

Either we have become blind or we have become irrational  otherwise we will see and hear the example of many countries in the West that have embraced the path we have taken before us and returned to their ancient civilization. Yet the importance of the hat is incomparable. The hat has been given the nickname of the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest.

Today, Nepal’s Nepali dress is only given as a sublime tour. Today we are among them and there is no trace of it, but if we make history without making it historical, it cannot be said that the day will not come when we will curse ourselves in the period of history. The glory of this dress is not the glory of us Nepalis because we are the identity, otherwise we are Nepalis or Nepal.

Can’t say The glory of this dress is not the glory of us Nepalis because we are the identity, otherwise we are Nepalis or Nepal. The country is in a state of change, the pace of development is picking up, but this does not mean that the history of the old house must be completed to build a new house. Change is not one in which identity is lost.
