When I was a kid, around 12 or 13, my English teacher suddenly asked me if I know that we Manandhars are forbidden in our city's greatest temple Barahi. I was like shocked. I said, "I don't know, I'd just been there that morning". A friend next to me said she knew about the fact that the Manandhars are forbidden. I was so confused.
Few years ago, my aunt died because of old age, while on her funeral, my older brother told a story. As I like the story very much I listened to it quite attentively, as I always do. The story goes like this.
