The first thing that must be done for proper Bishwakarma puja is to get the shop cleaned and blessed. You see this being done in the bottom picture and in pixs 1, 2 and 3. After the shop is in order then the men must be blessed and spiritually cleansed. I am the first in line to be blessed by Sgt. Karka who is our expert and high priest regarding Bishwakarma Puja. This is top pix. After me everybody in the shop received blessing, cleansing and tika as I did. Then we are ready for the sacrificial offering to Sri Bishwakarma.

In regard to religious ceremonies, I recently read that Gorkhas no longer kill water buffalo during Dashera. I wonder if the practice of sacrificing water buffalo is also declining among the general population?
