''Pulukisi,'' the mythical elephant of Hindu Lord Indra, god of rain, parades through Kathmandu, Nepal, on September 6, during Indra Jatra. The ascension of three living deities--the Kumari, Ganesh, and Bhairab--in the form of humans on three different chariots that tour around the city is an annual festival observed for eight days starting from Bhadra Shukla Chaturdashi of the Nepali month of Bhadra. The fourth day of the waxing moon in the month of Bhadra, according to the lunar calendar, is Indra Jatra, which has been followed for a long time. Legends say that the Indra Jatra festival is observed to celebrate the victory of the gods over the demons to release Jayanta, the son of Lord Indra. It is believed that Lord Indra comes to the earth to collect white flowers for his mother but is caught by the locals (the Newars) of the Kathmandu Valley and kept bound. After Lord Indra's mother, Jayanta, comes and discloses his identity, a procession takes place, which continues to this day. Indra, the god of rain, is worshiped in this festival primarily celebrated by the Newar communities following both Hinduism and Buddhism.
