意思
Avoiding certain foods for health or ritual.
文化背景
The most intense form of 'Mukha Bārnu' occurs during 'Kiriya'. Mourners wear white and avoid salt, oil, and meat. Salt is considered 'tasty' and its avoidance is a mark of penance. Nepali health beliefs are deeply Ayurvedic. Foods are categorized as 'Tato' (Hot) or 'Chiso' (Cold). If you have a 'cold' illness, you must 'bar' cold foods. In Newari feasts (Bhoye), if someone is 'Mukha Bāreko', they might sit separately or be served specific 'pure' foods to avoid ritual contamination. In cities like Kathmandu, 'Mukha Bārnu' is now being used alongside 'Dieting'. However, 'Mukha Bārnu' still carries a connotation of 'necessity' while 'Dieting' is seen as 'lifestyle'.
Respecting the 'Bar'
If a Nepali person says they are 'Mukha Bāreko', do not pressure them to eat. It is often a matter of deep religious or health significance.
The 'Nun' Rule
If you hear someone is 'Nun' (salt) Mukha Bāreko, they are likely in a very strict mourning period. Be extra respectful.
