What do the sun and moon symbolize in Nepali tradition?

Light and darkness, masculine and feminine energy, strength and gentleness. The sun and moon symbolize duality - two seemingly opposing forces that complement each other and together form a single whole. A similar idea can be found in ancient Chinese philosophy through yin and yang, where every opposite has its own meaning and place. The sun is associated with vitality, courage, and creative power, while the moon represents intuition, emotion, dreams, and our hidden inner self. Light needs darkness, activity needs rest, and strength needs gentleness. Their union is a reminder that balance does not come from suppressing opposites, but from letting them complement one another.

The mask is hand-carved and hand-painted in Nepal. Its surface may show minor scratches, color variations, or irregularities in the finish, which are visible in the photos as well. Individual pieces may therefore vary slightly in appearance.
