KATMANDU, Nepal - A 10-year-old Nepalese girl was stripped of her title as a living goddess because she traveled overseas to promote a documentary about the centuries-old tradition, an official said Tuesday.

In my opinion, i dont understand how such a divine title could totally leave you with nothing once you reach puberty. The beliefs are that Goddess are said to give their husbands a short life, so its often rear that they marry, the little girl is happy with the praise but nonetheless what happens to her when she gets older?

I think that it makes me wonder exactly what they mean by calling her a "Goddess" if humans can strip her of her title. That's what I think.

I think it's best in the long run for her. Being a Goddess must be fun, but it doesn't teach you much about life. Not being allowed outside the country and RARELY being allowed outside the BUILDING doesn't give a person much chance to experience the world. And what Goddess can care for a world she's never even seen?

She left Nepal which was forbidden.
No man is capable of being a god or goddess on earth.
Jesus was 30 years old before he was baptized. He was old enough to make a conscious decision. This small child could not possibly bless people.
Jesus was given special power from the most high God. He raised the dead, cured the sick and strengthened the faith of his followers. He had real power. He wasn't given a fake title and told to bless people.
You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.
Do you know what that means?
That means from a study of the scriptures you too can be set free from the rhetoric of this worlds false religions.
You can come to know why you are on this earth and what are your responsibilities towards the Most High God.
Have a study today free of charge. Contact your local Kingdom Hall and someone will come to your house and study with you.
You can trust Witnesses. They would not harm you or steal from you or let anyone else harm you.

I really don't know what I think about it because I don't know that much about their religion.
In my personal opinion if someone is an actual living Goddess her title should actually be strippable. But again I know next to nothing about there religion.

It's tradition not real divinity which is kinda blasphemus if you ask me. However, she broke the tradition so she deserved to have her status removed. Not that i think she's a bad person for doing so, i think she's a great little kid who's curious and wants to educate people while learning herself. Best of luck to her.

She broke the rules and she got dethroned. Her gardian should have checked the rules before allowing such things, but it seems like she admitted she was breaking the rules, so she should not be suprised.
I am nuetral, and am not for or against her, but rules are rules.

Yea, I read about this and I dont think she should have been stripped of her title. I remember reading about her when she first got the title. Poor girl.
