Gokarna Aunsi (Sanskrit: {{lang|sa|गोकर्ण औसीं}}) literally translated as cow eared (Gokarna) and no moon night (Aunsi) and is a late August or early September celebration in Nepal where the Hindu population worships cow eared incarnation of lord Shiva and their fathers.[1] It is also known as Kushe Aausi[2] and Bubako mukh herne din (Nepali for "looking at father’s face"),[3] because, apart from giving gifts, sons perform a certain ceremony: sons touch father's feet with their forehead and look at father's eyes, while daughters only have to touch his hand before looking.{{citation needed|date=May 2013}}

Many people go to the Shiva temple of Gokarneswor Mahadev, in Gokarna, a suburb of Kathmandu,[1] and they bathe and make offerings in the new moon day (Amavasya).[3] People whose father has died also perform Shraddha (yearly death rituals).[4]

The Nepali celebration is completely unrelated to the Western celebration of Father's Day{{fact|date=June 2012}}.

It falls on August 21 2017.[5]
