About Cheppu Ghau Mala 

A Chhepu Ghau is a sacred Himalayan amulet combining the protective imagery of Chhepu with the traditional form of a Ghau prayer box. In Newar tradition, Chhepu is a powerful mythical guardian associated with the Kathmandu Valley and is traditionally depicted at temple entrances and sacred spaces. The Ghau, meanwhile, serves as a portable prayer box that may hold sacred images, mantras, relics, or blessed objects. Together, the Chhepu design and Ghau form create a meaningful symbol of spiritual protection, devotion, and connection to Newar and Himalayan Buddhist heritage.
