Nagadhunga Sankhuwasabha

According to popular legend, this is a story about the beginning of the Kali Yuga. After the beginning of the Kali Yuga in Bhota, a pair of spiritual serpents came to the shores of Arun towards Nepal. Coming like this, Sankhuvakhola and Arunkhola have started living in the quiet place of Dobhan. In this way, when coming to Dobhan, the snake has started living in Bhutedah and the snake has started living in Salpa pond. Here, the marks cut by the stream of water on the banks of the river are called dobs made by snakes. Earlier religious snakes used to live only by eating fruits and scents, but slowly, after being touched by the wind of the bud, the snakes have become monsters and have started eating animals. People who come near there are also dragged by snakes in the air. In this way, when domestic animals and people also started disappearing, people were forced to escape from Sankhuwa Dobhan by wearing Dhami and chanting mantras for seven days and seven nights.
In this way, the Nag Piluwa who escaped from Bhutedah has settled in Arun river Dobhan. Here too animals and people have started eating by breathing air. After many people and animals started disappearing, the villagers gathered and called Kepehang Bijuwa of Mangding and made him chant the mantra for seven days and seven nights. In this way, blowing the mantra, Mundhum began to rain heavily and thunderously. In this way, he was able to kill the snake by throwing thunderbolts like lightning and fire. Thus, when the snake died, the Arunkhola flowed at night for seven days due to the blood of the snake.
After killing the snake that became a monster like this, Bijuwa and dholes came back home. On the other hand, Nagin, who was living in Salpapokhari, had come to know about the death of Nagin. So Bijuwa waited to take revenge for killing his snake. When Chirkhuwa approached Dobhan, the snake changed its shape into a stick held by Bijuwa and bit Bijuwa. When Bijuwa realized that he had been bitten by a snake, he told the dholes. I was bitten by a snake, now I will die soon, so throw away my flesh and cook it and eat it. In addition, he said that the material for practicing his mantra, drums, drums, and pangpetaros should be placed in Chirkhuwa Dobhan.
For the dholes, Bijuwa was like a king and like a guru, so they obeyed Bijuwa’s orders, dragged the flesh of Bijuwa’s body and put it on a log towards their house, and buried the bones on the bank of the river. After reaching home, the family sat together and cooked meat. But before the family could sit together and eat, the serpent came again in the form of a Brahmin and told them not to eat the meat. The dholes insisted that they should obey the orders of a pure brahmin like me rather than saying that they could not disobey the orders of Bijuwa. He persuaded the dholes not to put it in their mouth but to throw it away by sniffing it. Even the dholes did not eat bijuwa’s meat. Sniffed and threw.
If Dhole and his family ate Bijuwa’s meat as Bijuwa said, then the Dhami Shakti in Bijuwa would be transferred to others as well. But it is said that the power of Dhami is not derived from the inner soul, but only by smelling it instead of eating it. It is said that when you wear dhami, you will not have much power and you can only tell by smelling it.
In the Piluwa River of Sankhuwasabha and the gorge of Arun, one can see a stone that looks like a large smooth snake crawling around, which is said to be snake crawling. The stone is still called Nagadhunga. Similarly, the place where Kepehang Dhami dropped thunder with the power of the mantra was called Kepehang. The word has been corrupted and is now called Kepanang.
Also, it is said that the Pangpetaros of Dhol Dhangro in Chirkhuwa Dobhan have been perfected in the form of rocks.
