Someone longs for the Dakshina (Money received by younger after Tika), someone longs for blessings, new clothes, shoes, and the memory of missing relatives ... maybe! Dashain is a handful of gifts of love, affection, respect, and laughter that may be needed at any time in the past, present, and future. Welcome to this special day of this year’s Dashain Tika.
Having said that, it is important to remember the many obstacles this year, including corona infections, lockouts, global health crises, and lack of mobility and so many others as the aftermath. Dashain may have been a bit hollow, but I hope that in the years to come, we will be able to overcome these hollows, wherever we are, as we are.
Now, let me first explain what is Akshyata in general, Akshyata is a mixture of red abeer, curd, and rice which is mixed, and the colorful mixture is placed on the forehead as an auspicious Dashain gift and followed by blessings. All family member gathers together, worships the deities today and later they worship the main pillar of the house, main entrance and formally starts the Tika process.
