Religions of the Newars: A Brief Observation
<p>According to the official statistics of that census of 2021, the total population of the Newars is 1,341,363. That is, they constitute only 4.6% of the total population. That means they are ranked the 8th largest ethnic community in Nepal. In fact, it would be unfair to call them ethnic community because it is much more complicated. The Newars can be divided by religion, ethnicity, caste, dialect as well as geographic distribution, making the Newars a complex group of people. There is only one thing that binds them together — the language. So, it is safer to say they are a linguistic community. And, today Newar are living in scores of countries around the world; they may or may not be Nepalis, but they are definitely Newars. They have pious respect for their religion, culture, dresses, and language.</p>
