Legend of Banjhakri Falls According to the Nepali folklore, the first Shaman or Jhakri possessed all the power of taking over all the evil spirits from the Gods. He also needed to identify the right boys and teach them the technique in his forest cave secretly. After the boys were trained, they also became Jhakris who had the power to cure those affected by evil spirits. According to the folklore, on the one hand, the male Jhakris always protected the human beings and on the other hand, their wives, also known as the Jhakrinis, were the evil spirits who would eat up the human beings.
