Bedia (Hindu traditions) in Nepal

One source considers Bedia to be the generic name of a number of vagrant, nomadic groups. Traditionally, a large section of the Bedia were reported to be earning a livelihood from prostitution and dancing, however, this has largely been discontinued. The Bedia worship deities like Thakur, Shiva, Parvati, Hanuman, Chamunda, Kali and Sitala and Khermata (a local deity).

Ministry Obstacles

Giving up allegiance to personal deities may be threatening.

Outreach Ideas

Pray for the Bedia people to be delivered from their fear of "Christendom" and to embrace God's blessing through his word for their families and clans.

Scripture Focus

"A God greatly to be feared in the council of the holy ones, and awesome above all who are around him?"  Psalm 89:7

Scripture Prayer

Pray that many from today’s people group will understand that the only God is the Lord, and they must turn to Him. Pray they will be in awe of His might.

Prayer Focus

Pray the few followers of Jesus among the Bedia would have pastors and teachers to help them grow to become faithful disciples. Pray they would be taught accurately and well. Pray the Bedia would make schooling a priority for their children and would be able to improve their standard of living.
