Legend has it that the first Malla king brought the goddess Taleju Bhawani in Kathmandu where it is enshrined. Lakhe, not finding his patron goddess Taleju, simply followed the footprints of the Malla king and ended up in Nepal from the south. Later, goddess Taleju appeared as Living Goddess Kumari and Lakhe continued to walk the chariots of Kumari in this great festival.
