Kumari Pooja In Nepal

A pre-pubescent Nepali girl poses for a photo as she attends the mass Kumari Pooja organized in Basantapur Durbar Square, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in Kathmandu, Nepal. Donned in red robes, similar to the living goddess Kumari, Newa girls sit in a line to be worshipped turn by turn to ward off bad luck and diseases. The pre-pubescent girls are worshipped annually in the Himalayan nation as earthly incarnations of divine feminine energy, manifestations of the goddess known as ''Taleju Bhawani,'' the Nepalese name for Goddess Durga.
