नेपाली भूभाग
- Rushina Tamang - 26008, Grade ... 20 June, 2023

नेपाल एसिया महादेशमा अवस्थित एउटा सुन्दर देश हो । यो एसियाको दक्षिणी भागमा अवस्थित भूपरिवेष्ठित देश हो। यो हिमालयमा अवस्थित छ र उत्तरमा जनवादी गणतन्त्र चीन र दक्षिण, पूर्व र पश्चिममा भारत गणतन्त्रको सिमाना छ । नेपालले कुनै महासागर वा समुद्रलाई नछोए तापनि नेपालको भूगोलभित्र सयौँ नदी, पोखरी र तालहरू रहेकाले जलस्रोतमा धनी छ । नेपालको भूगोलको कुरा गर्दा नेपालको भूगोल एकदमै सुन्दर छ । नेपालको भूगोललाई तीनवटा क्षेत्रमा विभाजन गरिएको छ । हिमाली क्षेत्र, तराई क्षेत्र र पहाडी क्षेत्र। धेरै देशहरू भन्दा फरक, नेपालमा तीनवटा फरक भूमि छन् । र तीनवटै क्षेत्रका आ–आफ्नै विशिष्टता, महत्त्व र छन् । 
 

नेपालको सबैभन्दा माथिल्लो भागमा रहेको पहाडी क्षेत्रमा सुन्दर सुन्दर हिमालहरू अवस्थित रहेका छन् । ६००० मीटरभन्दा माथि नेपालमा १,३१० एउटा पहाडहरू छन् । र संसारमा भएको १४ एउटा ८००० मिटरभन्दा माथि अग्लो पहाडहरूमध्ये ८ एउटा पहाडहरू नेपालको भूभागमा अवस्थित रहेका छन् । ती ८ हिमालहरू सगरमाथा , कन्चनजन्गा, लोत्से, मकालु, धौलागिरी, मनास्लु, चोयु, र अन्नपूर्ण हुन् । यी ८ हिमालहरूमध्ये सगरमाथा हिमाल संसारको सबैभन्दा अग्लो हिमाल हो । र यो नेपालको भूभागमा अवस्थित हुनु नेपालको लागि गर्वकाे कुरा हो । सगरमाथा हिमालको उचाइ ८८४८ मिटर रहेको छ। 

 

यस क्षेत्रमा शेर्पा जातीय व्यक्तिहरूको बसोबास रहेको छ । शेर्पाहरू पहाडी भूभागमा आदिवासी हुन् । शेर्पाहरू पहाडी भूभागमा बस्दा बस्दा उनीहरूको शरीर त्यही भूभागको आधारमा विकास भएको छ । जसका कारण शेर्पाहरूको शरीर अरु व्यक्तिको शरीरभन्दा फरक र अझै विकसित हुन्छ, जसले उनीहरूलाई चिसो ठाउँमा स्वतन्त्र रूपमा सास फेर्न, जति चिसो भए पनि आफ्नो शरीरको तापमान कायम राख्न, र ८८४८ को उचाइमा रहेको पहाडहरू जस्तो अग्लो ठाउँहरूलाई पानि सजिलोले चढ्न सक्ने शक्ति दिन्छ । यस भूभागमा हिमालयन याकहरू र हिउँ चितुवाहरू पनि पाइन्छ जुन यो संसारमा अरू कही पनि पाईंदैन । संसारमा अरू कहीँ पनि नपाइने लालीगुराँस फूल जुन नेपालको राष्ट्रिय फूल पनि हो, यो फूल पनि नेपालको पहाडी भूभागमा आवस्थित छ । यी कुराबाहेक यहाँ टन्नै बुद्धिस्ट गुम्बाहरू पनि अवस्थित रहेका छन् । 

 

नेपालको पहाडी क्षेत्र निकै सुन्दर छ । यस क्षेत्रमा रहेका अनेक चीजहरूले पहाडी क्षेत्रकाे सुन्दरतालाई बढाउने काम गरेका छन् । नेपाली सुन्दरता र प्रकृतिकाे अनुभव लिन र रमाउन  हरेक वर्ष धेरै पर्यटक नेपाल भ्रमणमा आउने  गर्छन् । त्यसैले यो नेपालको गौरवमय पक्ष हो ।

Keratoconus: A Corneal Disease
- Srishad Shiwakoti - 27026, Gr ... 20 June, 2023

Eye is the most important and most sensitive part of our body. It helps us look at the world. Unfortunately unlike any other parts of our body, the eye also has several diseases and infections. I was also diagnosed with a serious disease called ‘Keratoconus’ in the main part of my eye - Cornea. Luckily it wasn't too late for the surgery so I was protected from it.

 

Keratoconus is a corneal disease in which our cornea bulges from its place and it becomes thin. It mainly occurs to people with a high level of allergy as allergy makes eyes itchy and people rub it. This disease only happens to children of growing age. It all started when I went to an eye clinic for a check-up as my eye was red. After the checkup, they all were serious and were discussing the issue. We were also feeling a bit scared until an expert Ophthalmologist came and explained everything in detail about the disease. They said I had to put on contact lenses to protect my cornea. We were horrified by the news so we went to Nepal Eye Hospital. There was our relative who is a well-known surgeon Dr Kamal Khadka. He calmed us down and referred us to a Cornea specialist. The specialist doctor said that we had to go through a surgery which is called Collagen Crosslinking. This service is newly adapted in Nepal by only two hospitals. In the process of this surgery, ultraviolet light and eye drops are invaded in the cornea to tighten it. This helps to prevent cornea bulging further and improve the eye-sight at the same time. We went to the best hospital for that surgery - Matrika Eye Center. At first I was scared but later the doctor calmed me down. The surgery of my right eye was fixed on Chaitra 29 after a lot of eye-scan.

 

It was finally the day of surgery and I was scared and excited as well at the same time because I was going to see the world clearly after this hectic situation. The surgeon was Dr. Shashwat Dhungel, a veteran refractive surgeon. We waited for an hour as the machines were getting ready. I was called into a dark room. There the doctor made me sleep on the bed and poured eye drops but I did not feel any kind of difficulty in my eye though I was conscious. The doctor started to pass laser light in the eye and I sat watching it for 10 minutes. Then I was taken out from the operation room and treated with eye drops every five minutes. However, the first part was over, the second part was still left. The second part was just to watch the laser light for 20 minutes. I was sent out to rest for 30 minutes. I was not feeling any kind of pain due to the medicine but the real pain started after an hour. It was unbearable but I somehow endured it. I had to put medicine in the gap every 15 minutes. My aunt and cousin sister helped me do it as my mom had to go to work. After three days the pain lowered down. And now, after 3 weeks I feel good and my vision is also gradually back. I am still taking medicines and doing follow-up with the doctor.

 

Now I am still scared because I have to go through the same surgery for my left eye. Nevertheless, I also feel a little confident because the next would be my second time. After this situation happened to me, I suggest everyone not to rub their eyes too much and vigorously. Previously, I had my eyesight -4.5 power but now after the surgery, it's only -1.2 in my right eye. So, this surgery has helped me a lot by curing the disease of my eye. This is all because of the development in technology and expert doctors. I feel very lucky that this technology was introduced in Nepal just six months ago and I could get treatment. Finally, I want to thank the doctors with the quote of Paulo Coehlo ‘Your eyes show the strength of your soul’.

Exploitation of the Environment for Personal Gain: A Crisis
- Aayusi Shrestha - 26002, Grad ... 19 June, 2023

The environment plays a huge role in sustaining life on our planet. It provides us with vital resources, clean air, and a balanced ecosystem. However, it is disheartening to witness the alarming increase in individuals who exploit the environment for personal benefits. One of the primary reasons people exploit the environment is rooted in human greed and the pursuit of immediate personal benefits. Individuals and organizations are using the environment and harming it for their selfish gains. People taking advantage of the environment has a lot of negative consequences. People do not understand that if we do not protect the environment then it will only be harmful for us and the next generations.

Majority of the people prefer short term gains over the sustainability of the environment. This mindset is going to lead us to destructive practices such as deforestation, climate change, pollution everywhere and more. A lot of problems like this are already in existence but people are not doing anything about it. Industries and businesses often disregard the environmental consequences of their activities. In some cases, the industries and organizations act like they care about the environment but they are the first ones to harm the environment. It is actually quite true that people will do anything to expand their business even if it means using the environment and ruining it. In this world we are living in money is way more important than our future. When people exploit the environment they do not think about the upcoming future generations. Political interests and corruption often contribute to the exploitation of the environment. In most of the cases, government officials allow the destructive practices to continue unchecked if they are receiving something from it. Corruption weakens the efforts to protect the environment. There are a lot of politicians who fight against environmental cruelty however if they receive something by harming the environment they will not proceed to think once about it. There are many people who harm the environment unknowingly as they are not aware about it. Lack of awareness has caused a lot of problems like pollution, global warming, deforestation, etc. If we really want our future to be more secure then we need to start acting now and also start to protect the environment.

There are a lot of solutions to stop people from utilizing the environment for themselves however a lot of people are too busy or lazy to do it. Through education, sustainable practices, and global collaboration, we can combat this exploitation and ensure a sustainable future for the generations to come. Promoting environmental education and awareness at all levels of society is essential. Governments, organizations, and individuals should all work together to share knowledge, resources, and spread awareness through the power they have. It is important for us to recognize our responsibility as the protectors of the environment and take action to preserve and protect it for the benefit of all.

- Riddhis Sharma - 26006, Grade ... 16 June, 2023

नेपाल एक अत्यन्त सुन्दर र सांस्कृतिक देश हो, जसमा प्रकृतिले पनि आफ्नो सुन्दरताको छाँया पारेको छ । यहाँ मानिसले बनाएको संस्कार र संस्कृति मात्र नभई प्रकृतिका अनौठा दृश्यहरू देख्न पाइन्छ ।  सगरमाथा र अन्य हिमालका साथसाथै यहाँ तराई  र पहाडमा पनि अति सुन्दर र दर्शन योग्य ठाउँहरू छन् । 
नेपाल मुख्य गरी त सगरमाथाको देश भनेर चिनिन्छ तर यसलाई चिन्ने अरू पनि कैयौँ अरू तरिका छन् । नेपाल प्राय सगरमाथा र गौतम बुद्धको देश भनि चिनिए पनि यो महान् देशका परिचयमा एक बहुभाषी, बहुसांस्कृतिक र बहुधार्मिक देश हो भन्ने कुरा छुटाउन सकिँदैन । प्रमुख रूपमा नेपाल एक सनातन धर्म मान्ने देश भए पनि यहाँ सबै जाति र धर्मका मानिसहरू बस्छन् ।

Her books have sold over 2 billion copies worldwide, making her one of the best-selling authors of all time. She has written over 100 books, the majority of them being crime/mystery novels, “The Murder of Roger Ackroyd” being no different.

Our protagonist is Dr. James Shepard, a physician of a village King’s Abbot lives with his sister Caroline who becomes involved in the investigation of the murder of his wealthy neighbor, Roger Ackroyd.

Do You Think Global Warming Is a Hoax?
- Aavash Malla - 26001, Grade X ... 15 June, 2023

Global Warming is a major cause for problems in our daily life which has affected us both physically and mentally. There are many reasons for why global warming is rising like overpopulation, pollution emitted by (CFC) gasses. Global warming includes rise in the sea level, increase in the temperature, extreme weather conditions and disruptions of ecosystems. There are very limited resources that we can use to prevent us from global warming like electricity.

People often think that global warming is a conspiracy theory which has grown on us. Do I think that global warming is a hoax? No, I do not think so because nowadays the rise and fall in temperature is way too much. The rise of temperature during the seasons is alarming. We humans are the main cause for global warming. If there was no pollution and no emission of (CFC) gasses then probably we would not face global warming. Many people think that global warming is a hoax depending on the very little evidence that they have but what about the proof that global warming is not a trick or a factor to deceive us? We are losing hundreds and thousands of lives every day just because of global warming and people still think that it is just a way of deceiving us. Global warming directly affects our physical health leading us to have different kinds of diseases which are so  hard to cure and people still believe that global warming is not that important. Because of global warming the sea level is rising and the glaciers are melting which is very harmful to the environment. As the weather is right now we will soon face many crises which will have many negative impacts on the people and on the country. Scientists have also proven the fact that global warming is real but people still do not believe it. There are many politicians who have spoken on the topic of global warming and said to improve the world for the better but some people still do not believe that global warming exists.

In conclusion I do not believe that global warming is a hoax and I do not suggest anyone reading this to believe it is a hoax as well because knowing most of the things about global warming is better for us than to not believe it exists and know nothing about it. You don’t have to do extensive research to know that it is not a hoax, just feel the summer heat. It is extremely abnormal for Ka thmandu to be this hot during the summers. This is the doing of global warming. We need to play our parts in order to try to restore earth and not push it towards extinction.

सङ्गत
- Eshaan Kumar Rajbhandari - 27 ... 15 June, 2023

सुरज र भरत, दुवै एकदमै मिल्ने साथी थिए । उनीहरूका अभिभावकहरू पनि मिल्ने साथी भएर होला, उनीहरूको त्यस्तै कहिलेकाँही मात्र कुरो मिल्दैनथ्यो । विद्यालयमा पनि सुरजलाई खोज्नुपर्दा वा भरतलाई खोज्नुपर्दा, पहिले एक अर्कालाई नै खोज्नुपर्थ्यो किनभने सुरज र भरत, यी दुवै जना विद्यालयमा धेरै समयभन्दा नि जहिले पनि एक र अर्कासँगै देखिन्थे । दुवै जना विद्यालयका प्रथम विद्यार्थीहरू थिए । यी दुवै जना पढाइमा मात्र नभएर अरू गतिविधिहरूमा पनि सक्रिय थिए । उनीहरू आफ्ना विद्यलयका  सान तथा तारा थिए।

यी सबै कुराहरू तब खस्किन थाले, जब एक दिन उनीहरूकाे कक्षामा एक सजन नामक नयाँ विद्यार्थी भर्ना भयो । त्यतिखेर सुरज र भरत कक्षा नौमा पढिरहेका थिए । सजन एक अमिर घले परिवारमा हुर्केको एक बिग्रेको विद्यार्थी थियो । सजन, सुरज र भरत अब खुब मिल्न थाले, अब सुरज र भरतका समूहमा सजन पनि समावेश भयो । सजनका विभिन्न किसिमका नराम्रा बानीहरू थिए, तीमध्ये हुन् होहल्लाह गर्ने, अरू विद्यार्थीहरूलाई होच्याएर तथा गरिब परिवारका मुख्य गरी विद्यार्थीहरूलाई जिस्क्याउने जस्ता हुन् । अब सुरज र भरत एकदमै संस्कारी भएकाले सजन बदलिनु पर्ने ठाउँमा भरतले एक्कासी आफ्नो चरित्रमा परिवर्तन ल्यायो । ऊ पनि अब बिस्तारै सजन जस्तै नराम्रा सङ्गतमा लाग्दै गयो । सजनजस्ता सजनक थुप्रै अरू पनि बिग्रेका विद्यार्थीहरू थिए, जो सुरज र भरतले सजनद्वारा नै चिनेका थिए । यिनै साथीद्वारा साथीमार्फत् भरत झन् झनै बिग्रदै गयो । बिग्रियो एक अर्थमा नराम्रा काम अथवा लागु पदार्थमा आदि भयो । सुरजले भरतलाई भन्यो, “भरत ! मेरो साथी तिमी मबाट किन टाढिन्छौ ? कृपया म कहाँ फर्कनुहोस् मेरो साथी त्यसै गरेर अर्को तर्फमा थियो सजन, ऊ भने चाँहि सुरजको राम्रो सङ्गत तथा संस्कारले गर्दा ऊ पनि सुरज र पहिलेको भरत झैँ बनेको थियो । 
एक महिना पछि यी तीनै जनाका परीक्षा थियो । अहिलेको यस निरन्तर विद्यार्थी मूल्याङ्कन प्रणालीमा गृहकार्य र कक्षाकार्य अङ्क पनि परीक्षामा पनि अङ्क जोडिने भएकाले, सजन र सुरज खुब मिहिनेत गर्न थाले उता भरत भने त्यही नराम्रा कार्यहरूमा व्यस्त थियो । परीक्षा आउन एक हप्ता मात्र बाकी थियो। सुरजलाई थाहा थियो कि आफ्नो बाल्यकालदेखि अहिले सम्मको साथीले केही पनि पढेको छैन भनेर त्यसैले ऊ आफ्नो साथी भएको ठाउँ गयो । उसलाई सम्झायो, “ मेरो साथी आऊ यार हामी पहिलेझैँ मिलिजुली पढौँ । अब परीक्षा आउँदै छ, क्यास प्रणालीले कारण अझ मिहिनेत गर्नुपर्छ । हार नमान है ल आऊ !” त्यसपछि भरतले झर्को  मानेर जवाफ फर्कायो, “तैँले भन्दैमा म आउँछु ! म जस्तो प्रथम विद्यार्थी पढ्नु पर्दैन । तिमी र तिम्रो प्यारो साथी सजन मिलेर पढ ।” यो सुनेर सुरजले बुझ्यो कि उसको साथी आफ्नो पुरानो साथी रहेन । त्यसपछि परीक्षा भयो । नतिजा वितरण पनि भयाे । सबैले थाहा पाए कि भरतबाहेक उसको कक्षाका सबै अरू विद्यार्थी पास भए । सुरज प्रथम भयो र सजन त्यस्तै दसाैँ स्थानमा आयो । त्यसपछि सुरज, सुरजको परिवार र भरतको परिवार तथा सबैले भरतलाई सम्झाए पहिले जस्तै हुन मद्दत गरे । त्यसैले सबैले सङ्गतअनुसारकाे फल पाउँछन् ।

Difference Between Tuition and School
- Ravi Raj Singh - 27010, Grade ... 14 June, 2023

As we all know that education is required for our careers. For that we need to study hard and then only we are able to do something for us in our future. To get educated we have to go to school and if we want to get better grades or maintain them we either need to go to tuition or get those marks on our own. Going to tuition is basically getting extra help especially for people who are not strong academically.

Let us discuss these two topics. So whenever I hear the word ‘school’ only some things come to mind and they are: a building of 5 flats where there are many rooms in which there are many benches and chairs where students come and study and clear their doubts with the help of the teachers. An institution for formal education.  And tuition classes are where you take the classes as per your requirement you either go to the tutor’s area or they come to your house. They are extra help. You clear your doubts from the tutor in a one to one environment. Unlike schools where the same knowledge is imparted to a whole class of 20 - 30 students, tuition is more focused on an individual. Hence, clearing one’s doubts and getting extra help is possible in tuition. Not saying that it is not possible in the school.

There is a stigma around taking tuition, although it is true that people who need extra help take tuition but it does not mean that they do not know everything. Some people just need a little extra help, it is not that they are hopeless. We need to keep in mind that not everyone can excel in every subject.

Data Privacy
- Anmol Dangol - 26015, Grade X ... 13 June, 2023

Privacy is the capacity to prevent one's private affairs and actions from being disclosed to others. The ability to protect privacy in the digital era is getting harder. Online shops, search engines, and social networking platforms all gather a ton of personal information from their users. Concerns have been raised regarding who gets access to the data and how it is being utilized as a result.

In many nations, our data is protected by laws and agreements. Because it gives people control over their personal information, privacy is significant. People insert personal information about themselves with the hope that it would be kept private. This is why it's crucial to read the terms and conditions before using any website or app. Frequently, the terms and conditions will detail how the business gathers and uses personal data. It can be utilized in a variety of ways such as: used by businesses to monitor user activity, target adverts, or offer goods and services. Governments may utilize personal data to track down citizens, keep tabs on communication, or stop crime. While some uses of personal information might be helpful, other ones might be damaging. Identity theft is among the main dangers to privacy and it happens when someone takes personal information like a person's name, address, or credit card number—and uses it to conduct fraud.

For the victim, this may be catastrophic since it may lead to financial losses, harm to credit ratings, and other issues. Personal data should be kept safe in order to prevent identity theft. This entails creating secure passwords, abstaining from disclosing personal information online, and keeping a close eye on credit reports for any suspicious behavior. Data breaches are another risk to privacy. When unauthorized parties get access to personal information, a data breach occurs. This may occur as a result of a breach into a company's computer system or when an employee unintentionally reveals sensitive data. Sensitive data, including social security numbers, credit card numbers, and medical records, might be lost as a result of data breaches. Use safe websites and refrain from revealing personal information unless it is absolutely essential in order to protect yourself from data breaches.

Governmental spying may potentially be a danger to privacy. Governments may employ surveillance to keep tabs on communication, find people, or stop crime. Although it might be required in some circumstances, surveillance can also be misused. For instance, monitoring may be employed to identify political rivals or quell opposition. Supporting privacy legislation and fighting for accountability and openness in government surveillance programs are crucial for safeguarding against governmental spying. In addition to these dangers, privacy can be violated in a variety of different ways. By sharing pictures or status updates, for instance, social media users may unintentionally reveal personal information to the public. User activity may be monitored by online merchants, who may then target adverts using this data. Search engines may keep track of user searches and utilize this data to produce better search results. It's critical to be aware of how personal information is being used and to take precautions to restrict its gathering and distribution in order to defend against these risks. Online privacy may be protected in a variety of ways. Use of secure passwords and avoiding sharing of passwords or personal information with others are two of the most crucial ones. Additionally, it's crucial to use secure websites and to refrain from opening attachments or clicking on links coming from unidentified sources. Limiting the quantity of private information exchanged online is another strategy to preserve privacy.

Aside from using privacy-enhancing tools like ad blockers and virtual private networks (VPNs), this can be accomplished by modifying the privacy settings on social media accounts. Finally, it should be noted that privacy is a fundamental human right that is under threat more than ever in the digital age. Numerous uses of personal information are possible, some of which may be detrimental. It's critical to understand how personal information is being used if you want to defend yourself from these hazards.

मचाती जात्रा
- Pratik Dangol - 27009, Grade ... 13 June, 2023

मचाती  जात्रालाई अर्को शब्दमा त्रिशुल जात्रा पनि भनिन्छ । यो जात्रा उपत्यकामा मनाउने अनौठो जात्रामध्ये एक मानिन्छ । यो जात्रा अरू जात्राहरूझैँ देवताको सम्मानमा नमनाई हामी मानिसको दानवप्रति जितको प्रतीकमा मनाउने किंवदन्ती रहेको छ। 
किंवदन्तीअनुसार धेरै अघि एउटा दानवले बच्चाहरूलाई अपरहण गर्थ्याे । पशुपति क्षेत्रका मानिसहरू दानवले गर्दा हैरान भएका थिए । अन्त्यमा तान्त्रिक पुजारीहरूका मद्दतले देवपाटनका निवासीहरूले दानवबाट छुट्कारा पाए र त्यसको बच्चालाई समात्न सफल भए । पछि त्यो दानव भागेर नागार्जुन जङ्गलमा गएको मान्यता छ । हरेक वर्ष यो पर्व मनाउने क्रममा काठमाडाैँवासीले दानव सुपुर्दगीको मागलाई बेवास्ता गर्दै आएको हो । यो जात्रामा बच्चाहरूलाई दानवको प्रतीक मानी तीन ओटा खटमा राखिन्छ, अनि बासिन्दाहरूले खट बोकी  आर्यघाटमा लैजान्छन् ।

मचाती जात्रा दुई शब्द मचा जसको नेपाल भाषामा बच्चा हो र ति जसको नेपाल भाषामा अर्थ त्रिशुल हो । बच्चाहरूको पेटमा त्रिशुल घोपिएको हुनाले यसलाई त्रिशुल जात्रा पनि भनिएको हो ।  यस जात्रामा मुख्य तह तीन ओटा खट निकालिन्छ, दानवलाई बस्न दिएकोमा गाली गरिन्छ, र भुवनेश्वरी मन्दिरबाट निकालिएको शव यात्रा पनि गरिन्छ । वैशाख पूर्णिमाको दिन जीवित देवी कुमारीको पूजा गरी स्थानीय बासिन्दाहरूले जात्राको लागि दुई जना केटा र तीन जना केटीलाई छनोट गरिन्छ । त्यसपछि एक महिनापश्चात् असारमा जात्रा मनाइन्छ ।

दिउँसो ४ / ५ बजेको समयमा केही स्थानीयको टोलीले अर्याघाट नजिकैको बत्लेश्योरी मन्दिरबाट त्रिशुल घोपेको केटाको (कुमारको) खट निकाल्छन् । अर्को स्थानीयको टोलीले बैर्धारबाट त्रिशुल घोपेको केटीको (कुमारीको) खट निकाल्छन् । अर्को स्थानीय टोलीले एउटा कुमार सबैभन्दा माथि भएको र दुई ओटा कुमारी अलि तल छेउँछेउँमा भएको खट  तयार पारिन्छ । त्यसपछि पहिलो दुई खट तेश्रो खट भएकोमा जान्छ । त्यही बेला भुवानेश्वरीमा मुस्या फुलले बनईएको बन्धु दत्ता अचाजुको शव जसमा टाउको मानी बिष्णु भगवान्को प्रतीक मानी शालिग्राम हाएको निकालिन्छ। यो चाहिँ उहाँले दानव भगाउँन मद्दत गरेकोमा निकालिन्छ । त्यो शालिग्राम ४ जनाले बोक्छन र त्यो ३ ओटा खटपछि लगिन्छ । 
ती खटहरू जयबागेश्वरीदेखि सिफल लगिन्छ र फेरि फर्काउँदै दथु टोल, पाचा टोल, भुवनेश्वरी हुँदै आर्याघाट नजिकको एउटा घरमा लगिन्छ । त्यो खट यात्रामा युवाहरूले दानवलाई बस्न दिएकोमा अपशब्द प्रयोग गर्छन र आफूभित्र भएको रिस पोख्छन् । त्यसपछि बच्चाहरूलाई खटबाट निकालिन्छ, खाना खुवाइन्छ र आफैँ नबिउँझेसम्म कोसैले उठाउँदैनन् । पछि उठ्दा दानवले त्यो बालकहरूको शरीर छोडिसकेको हुन्छ र साधारण बालक बन्दछ । त्यसपछि भुवानेश्वरी मन्दिरमा तान्त्रिक सबलाई बिदाइ गरिन्छ र त्यसलाई आर्यघाट लगिन्छ ।
