Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Hinduism Chanira Bajracharya (Шаблон:Lang-ne; born 1995) is a former Kumari or Living Goddess of Patan in Nepal.

Biography

She was born in Nepal, chosen as living goddess in April 2000, and enthroned when she was five years-old.[1] In late-May 2001, she cried for four days in what was interpreted as a bad omen. The day after she stopped crying, the Nepalese royal massacre occurred.[2] Her reign ended when she reached puberty at the age of 15 when she menstruated for the first time, as is customary for Kumaris. She was succeeded by Samita Bajracharya.[3] Bajracharya is the niece of Dhana Kumari Bajracharya, one of the longest serving living goddesses, who reigned in Patan for three decades.[4]

Bajracharya speaks fluent English, which she learned during her reign as Living Goddess.[5] Following her retirement as Living Goddess, she studied business administration at Kathmandu University, eventually earning a Master of Business Administration.[2]
