On the ninth day of Dashain which is called ‘Nawami’ or “Maha-Navami” , we worship Vishwakarma, the god of creativeness. All artisans, craftsmen, tradesmen worship their tools, equipment and vehicles like cars, bikes, trucks etc. for protection against accidents during the year. So we got into the spirit of Dashain today and we worshipped our Car with a Puja.
Normally animals are sacrificed during the Puja and the tools are given their fill of blood but we used a hard shelled coconut instead and let the car have the coconut water!
