Empowering the soul: Performed on Newar New Year, families create individual mandalas (ritual diagrams) on the floor and place a ritual mandap before them.
Honoring the inner self: Family members sit cross-legged in front of their mandala to worship the spirit within themselves. This ritual is believed to purify and empower the soul, ensuring prosperity and longevity for the participant.
