TEEJ 2077
Teej is the generic name for a number of Hindu festivals that are celebrated by women in Nepal
Haryali teej and Hartalika teej welcome the monsoon season and are celebrated primarily by girls and women, with songs, dancing and prayer rituals.
The folk music and dances add more flavor to traditional values of Teej. It is fascinating to see women, in “Red” dancing and singing on the street, going to temple in holy and fasting mood. Teej is also called Hari Talika Teej. This festival is celebrated by Nepali Hindu women all across the world.
Teej is traditionally dedicated to the Goddess Parvati, remembering her union with Lord Shiva. It is a three-day-long celebration that combines splendid feasts as well as rigid fasting.
Teej also welcomes and celebrates arrival of monsoon after a season of summer heat.
