Udhauli Parva is the festival of the Kirat Rai community. It signifies the downward migration of hilly people for paddy cultivation when the weather is suitable in the lowlands. Similarly, there is the Ubhauli festival observed in Baisakh that signifies upward migration for paddy harvesting when the weather gets hotter in the lowlands. The festival also mentions the migration of birds and animals from hills to terai and vice versa.
It is also known as Bhumi Puja for the reason that the Kirat community prays to their Lord Sumnima and Paruhang for wholesome harvests and safety from natural catastrophes. The other name for this festival is Sakela Udhauli as the devotees celebrate it with traditional Sakela dance.
Kirant people worship agriculture, and nature and celebrate the festival with a great deal of devotion and joy and keep their traditional values alive, wherever on the planet they are. They are known to intertwine with nature, fostering a massive respect for the environment and its functioning.
