Former Royal Living Goddess TRISHNA SHAKYA is welcomed with rituals by her family at her private house in Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 30, 2025, following her ceremonial retirement as the Royal Kumari. She completed her tenure upon reaching puberty and was carried from the historic Kumari Ghar with traditional music, rituals, and processions. TRISHNA SHAKYA, revered as the living incarnation of Goddess Taleju during her service, continues to be celebrated in the centuries-old tradition observed by both Hindus and Buddhists in Nepal. Her successor, ARYATARA SHAKYA, 2½ years old, has been formally enthroned as the new Royal Kumari at Kumari Ghar on the auspicious day of Asthami.
