BHAGAWAN PASUPATHINATH OF NEPAL
The Seat of Chaturmukha Siva

INTRODUCTION

Beyond Bharatvarsha, but bordering on its bounds there lies Nepal, a tiny but mighty independent lone Hindu Kingdom, sharing many characteristic features of Aryan culture, although retains a distinct identity of its own. The people believe in the divine right of kingship, and the rulers embodying divine humanism are enjoying several privileges, which the democratic countries of modem times could neither dream, nor fulfill with any prop whatsoever. At any time. The royalty exercises its sovereign powers both over secular and spiritual domains and passes for the true representative of god. "Na vishnuh Prithvirpatih" concept is not only claimed, but upheld and implemented in its full spirit. To the last letter, as a matter of fact. The king in the role of the deputy of God not only parades his supremacy, but gets it honored with unbounded faith and unparalleled fervour.
