Welcome back to another episode on Suna Sangini and Happy New Year to all. We have been working on this episode for awhile during the spirit of the holidays. We hope you join us in this episode to unpack two auspicious festivals, Dashain (Vijaya Dashami) and Tihar (Deepawali and Yamapanchak or Swanti). As a lot of us continue our journey, Sanginis couldn’t help but pause and reflect on our relationship with these two festivals. Join Sweta and As Ha as they briefly share a general introduction to the festivals (according to Wikipedia). Followed by a roundtable discussion with members, Shreya and Paridhi. We unpack the following:
