Book Summary : An Ordinary Person's Guide to Empire.

2016-01-18T07:50:00.000+05:45

Arundhati Roy’s ‘an ordinary Person’s Guide to Empire’ (collection of her 14 essays or speeches she delivered in 2003-2004) became the first book, I finished in 2016. Thank you Ujjwal Acharya Dai for the gift. As Promised to Ujjwal dai here’s my summary of the book.

The book is a chilling & eye-opening account of the struggle of people against "empire"(cartel of self-interested corporate organizations & power hungry "pro-development" governments). How the other side of story of this struggle is continuously being repressed by continuous show of empire-side stories by "fair" media lead my same people against whom this resistance is waged in the first place. I felt her political/social writings and speeches are nothing short of illuminating and amazing and I regret reading Arundhati this late, ( I wish I hadn’t ignored her essays ), some of the essays from the book are eye-opener for me.

“The Loneliness of Noam Chomsky” (My favorite essay from the book) is Arundhati’s tribute to one of the world’s greatest and most radical intellectuals, Noam Chomsky, who showed us that nothing is what it seems to be in the free world. He showed us how phrases like "free speech", the "free market" and the "free world" have little, if anything, to do with freedom. And he analyzed the penchant of the United States to commit crimes against humanity in the name of "justice", in the name of "righteousness", in the name of "freedom".

The essay “Peace is War” deals with the importance of the "free media" in the corporate globalization project. She describes how neoliberal capitalists have managed to subvert democracy – by infiltrating the judiciary, the press and the parliament, and molding them to their purpose.

In “Do Turkeys Enjoy Thanksgiving?” she uses the allegory of quaint historic practices - like saving one good turkey and slaughtering millions - to say that there are always a few good turkeys from minority or oppressed groups that get rewarded, while the vast majority are penned and imprisoned. She warns us that the forces against us are too great for any one person, even a charismatic leader, to challenge.

In “Come September” that nationalism was the cause of genocides in the 20th century. Like a surgeon wielding a scalpel, she deftly shreds our most sacred doctrines. "Flags are bits of colored cloth that governments use first to shrink-wrap people's minds and then as ceremonial shrouds to bury the dead."

Roy analyses the power ordinary people like us wield in today’s world in her essay “Public Power in the Age of Empire”. The world today is a deeply skewed reality. She says that both terrorism and the war on terror share the same excruciating logic- they make ordinary citizens pay for the actions of their government.

The scope of Roy’s discussion is broad, the bulk of her evidence weighty, and yet her core messages are never lost from view. Some of the major refrains of this collection have to do with the ever-deteriorating, always illusory ‘free press’ and the need for truly independent media; the need to insist upon and assert a role for non-violent protest and resistance to imperializing projects; and the need to understand – and then denounce – grinding poverty as a form of violence.

Roy pays particular attention to the parallels between globalization in India, the devastation in Iraq, and the deplorable conditions many African Americans, in particular, must still confront.

She examines the role of resistance movements that can make a difference and return dignity to the term democracy. Whether writing about the so-called war on terrorism, the media, AIDS in South Africa, the war in Iraq, or caste politics in India; this passionate author puts before our eyes the cause of justice for the poor, the oppressed, and the overlooked in countries around the world.

“So you believe in it, don’t you? This whole stupid idea of romance, flowers and candlelight dinners and even the ridiculous ‘happily-ever-afters’, you have an unflinching faith in it, admit it! Damn! How did I ever miss it when I looked into your eyes for the first time? Perhaps my vision was clouded too…by this demeanour of yours.” And she pulled her hair back, dextrously letting the rubber band slip from her slim wrist on to her hair held tight in the fist. He felt a sharp pang as he realised its happening now. Something that he has dreaded, rehearsed, dreamt and anticipated for weeks now.

But that was it.

She nodded once more before she got up and left. He felt ridiculous, staring blankly at the crumbs of the orange cake that wrapped themselves around the tines of the fork like desperate rings clinging to thin fingers for the fear of slipping off.

He had least expected this would end in a noisy cafe, so abruptly and callously. She could have timed it better, closed it nicely. He saw it coming in her withdrawals, her reluctant kisses, her drifting eyes and twitching fingers but the last thing love performs is a reality check.

He shifted his gaze to the swing door still waving her a goodbye on his behalf. It creaked open and he saw her re-appear. His heart skipped a beat. He dismissed it, he must be hallucinating. Then he though it must be the gin and tonic or an aching heart playing cruel tricks on him.

Then he felt her hand touch his face, it was actually her. She ran her fingers over every feature, his nose, eyes, lips and the firm chin. He had his eyes closed all the while, only inhaling her perfume and recalling the texture of the skin of her hand.

He opened his eyes and she had her eyes closed too. He saw the fine lines of strain corrupting her perfect facial skin.

She withdrew her hand with a sudden jerk and opened her eyes wide. He felt the brilliance of her intense eyes and the smile that rippled upon the placid surface of her pursed lips.

“Sorry!” she said.

He smiled, “ It’s all right. I’m glad you came back…”

But she had placed her finger upon his lips and he found himself kissing it clumsily.

She spoke, “ Get lost! Just needed to register all details of your face. My sculpting project is bloody half-complete. Can’t afford to start over mid-semester with a new model.” She blew him a kiss as she reached the door.

The crumbs had fallen off the fork, the swing door was creaking again…he felt it had ended just right…before she returned.

The swing-door creaked once more, he turned to look in the other direction…

At 6 am

At 6 am
to be here in the lake
watching light
sketch upon the pitch-dark
with its finest pastels
is to know
how a sea of love
gently swells
against the containing wall
of the ribs
that tells
heart from bone

At 6 am
before the mind cribs
'mean and routine',
before man-sound
and engine grunt
hunt and blunt
the senses
before a city awakens
and a dead-living
commences

At 6.15 am
while I am still
a whiff
beyond 'what if'
a blade of grass
seeking no class
inconsequential
wordless, yet all-well
at 6.30 am
while I am
if at all
I am
a damp-soil sigh
a third eye
with eyelids of joy
oh boy

At 6.50 am
uprooted
I fall
fall...
fall back into the
the falsity of senses
of time and its tenses
fall...free
and captive
from the wing-flap prayer
of four birds that fly
without a care
right off the sky canvas
I fall...into this coarse
crowd of 'us'

Monsoon Musings

2014-07-04T21:21:00.000+05:45

Monsoon mornings can be extremely enchanting. The orchestra is in place to awaken your senses with nature’s best-played symphony. The wind tangos with the chimes on the front door. Raindrops make a string of near perfect pearls that decorates your bedroom window. A rain song serenades and cajoles the flora in view into a gentle sway.

The usually fathomless blue sky dons fleeting sheets of Gray and inadvertently breaks into a roaring laughter.The unforgiving summer bids farewell and the forthcoming festive autumn beckons. The two seasons are bridged by the thirst quenching rainy season that we all adore!The celebrations begin as the air brimming with moisture and romance rejuvenates the spirit and body.

Simmering cups of tea and coffee mark the evenings as new aromas emanate from the kitchen. Culinary improvisations involve stuffing the pakodas with almost anything palatable. Even the ‘calories conscious’ throw caution to the wind as maal-puas and jalebis call for sinful indulgence.The drudgery of a typical workday is replaced by the unpredictable excitement of a chaos when a heavy downpour leaves you drenched and stranded. The roads present camouflaged open manholes beneath innocent looking puddles. Parts of the city suffering from reconstruction fall into disarray as a muddy deluge flows all over.But the romance of venturing in the rain with one colourful umbrella for two; feeling the drops of rain on your face like ticklish fingers as you drive a motorbike; splashing in the puddles and rain dancing to the heart’s delight; lending purpose to old newspapers as your paper-boats vie for the Olympic gold; are precious moments that add up to life.

There are days when water logging makes the inadequate and ill-designed sewage systems overflow and choke, delighting children as their aquatic sports take to the streets.Frequent electricity cuts make one wonder if electricity board is diverting supplies to the million volt lightning flashes for both occur almost simultaneously. Forgoing the reality shows and the latest James Bond flick in favour of some reality check and family bonding can be fun. Blame it on the weather if you find dad in an ultra-cool mood despite a long day.Humidity and love are in the air in equal measures.

Long romantic drives and short excursions to soak in the country greens and fresh air can be refreshing. Or simply laze on a rocking chair, curled up with a book of poetry or fiction with soft music in the background that melds with the pitter-patter of falling raindrops. This season affords many delights if you can make the time.The inflation soaring, the Sensex and water tables dipping but the spirit of joy is insuppressible.

Monsoon weddings and the festival season cometh and delighted shop owners begin to lure customers with sale offers and new stocks. Time to spoil yourself.Shopping spirits are dampened just a bit because the water logging and the mosquitoes bother, as does the foul smelling garbage dump. Time to twitch the nose a bit, curse the authorities for spraying insecticides during peak hours. Time also to pause a bit before tossing the leftover food out of the window. In our cities, the litter belongs to the literati.

The evenings turn magical, pink cotton clouds huddle close bidding the setting sun farewell. The promise of an enchanting evening fills the air. What are your plans when drizzle taps on your window?, shaking a leg at a party, a game of scrabble, catching on family or friends, a long romantic drive? Time fleets and so do the precious moments, savour them all wonderful monsoon and make fragrant memories…

People and Nature around Ghandrung..!!

2014-06-06T17:37:00.001+05:45

Travelling and photography has been my passion since long. when my colleagues planned the trek to Ghandruk I was the Happiest one because ,I have been hearing about this trek route and Ghandruk village since my childhood day and I always wanted to be there, this time I made my dream come true with my classmates and had a great time. Tour around Bandipur and Pokhara was bonus for me :)

Trek to Ghandruk provided me a good introduction to trekking and also offered the breathtaking view of sacred mountain Macchapuchhre (fishtail) and Annapurna south.

Ghandrung, now known as Ghandruk is a typical gurung village of Kaski district. Its a popular and short trek destination of Annapurna region from Pokhara.Ghandruk once was a prime place to recurit British Gurkha and Indian army now is the hub for Annaapurna conservation area project (ACAP). This beautiful village with orderly rows of neat slate-roofed houses which are clustered on the canyon wall amid a complicated network of terraces provides opportunity to observe the life style of local people who are very cooperative.
A wander round it will reveal shops tea houses,local people transporting goods from one village to next , innocent children,small farm houses and their families ,donkeys mules, chicken and many more.
here I present some of my photograph which I captured during my trek to Ghandruk.

राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेप : कहिले सम्म ??

2014-01-20T16:43:00.000+05:45

त्रिभुवन विश्वविद्यालय चिकित्साशास्त्र अध्ययन संस्थानमा प्रा. डा. गोविन्द के. सी. हप्ता दिन देखि आमरण अनसनमा हुनुहुन्छ । चिकित्साशास्त्र अध्ययन संस्थानमा पटक पटक देखिने बेथिती,मुख्य गरेर समय समय हुने अनावश्यक राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेपको बिरुद्ध उहाको यो तेश्रो अनशन हो । डा. के .सीको इमान्दारीपन,त्याग र निस्वार्थ सेवाभाव प्रति सम्पूर्ण देश नतमस्तक छ । त्यसैले उहाले गरिरहेको आन्दोलन प्रति ब्यपक जनसमर्थ प्राप्त छ । डा. के.सीले गर्नुभएको आन्दोलनले अहिले स्वास्थ्य क्षेत्रमा ठुलो हलचल ल्याएको छ ।

संस्थानमा राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेपको बिरुद्ध अनशन गरिरहेका डा. केसीको स्वास्थ्य अवस्ता अत्यन्त नाजुक भैसक्दा समेत नेपाल सरकार र त्रिभुवन विश्वविद्यालय कानमा तेल हालेर बस्नुले,फोहरी राजनीति अनि राजनीतिको आडमा ब्यक्तिगत स्वार्थको लागि काम गर्ने माफियाहरुका अगाडी सब निरिह छन भन्ने तर्क पुस्टि गर्छ ।

डा . गोविन्द के. सी.को आन्दोलनले गर्दा अनावश्यक राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेपले स्वास्थ्य क्षेत्रमा मौलाएका तमाम बिकृतिहरु त एकपछि अर्को गर्दै सतहमा आउदै छन तर स्वास्थ्य मात्र होइन शिक्ष्या,बिकाश,कर्मचारी प्रशासन,कृषि, संस्थान लगाएत यावत क्षेत्रमा अनावश्यक राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेप प्रसस्त छ । ति क्षेत्र राजनीतिक भागवण्डाको आडमा नियुक्त हुने पदाधिकारी, तिनले गर्ने स्वार्थ निहित निर्णयहरुले गर्दा थलिएका छन । आयल निगम ,बिधुत प्राधिकरण लगाएतका संस्थान,खेलकुद संग ,त्रिभुवन विश्वविद्यालय उसका आंगिक क्याम्पस अनि अरु थुप्रै क्षेत्र राजनीतिक कार्यकर्ता थन्काउने केन्द्र बनेका छन । जहाँ सिमित स्वार्थ को लागि नियम कानुन बिपरित काम हुने गरेका छन । जसको प्रतक्ष्य फाइदा राजनीतिक दल का नेता अनि तिनका आसपासका माफियाहरुले लिने गरेको सबै सामु छर्लंगै छ । हामी माझ मौलाउदो भ्रष्टाचार,जबाफदेहीतको कमि , मनपरी तन्त्र यी सबै को पछाडीको एउटा प्रमुख कारण भनेको यस्ता क्रियाकलाप लाइ प्राप्त हुने राजनीतिक समर्थन हो ।

सामान्य नागरिक यस्ता क्रियालप देखि वाक्क भैसके,उनीहरु मा नकरात्मक सोचाई व्यप्त छ । जसको प्रभाबले समाज सम्मुनत हुन अझै थुप्रै दशक हरु अन्धकार मै बिताउनु पर्ने हुन्छ । बिभिन्न क्षेत्रमा हुने अनावश्यक राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेपको जालो मिल्काउन कि त सबै तिर डा.के. सीहरु आफ्नो काम कर्तब्य छोडेर अनसन बस्नु पर्यो । यदि त्यस्तो भयो भने कल्पना गरौ त कति भयावह अवस्ता हुनेछ देशको, यहाँका हरेक क्षेत्रमा डा केसी जस्तै ब्यक्तिहरु अनसन बस्ने छन अनि तिनको समर्थनमा सम्पूर्ण देश ठप्प हुने छ । यसरि इमान्दार अनि निस्वार्थ ब्यक्तिहरुले हरेक कुराको बिरोध गर्नु पर्ने ,अनशन बस्नु पर्ने अवस्ता आयो भने त्यसको जिम्मेबारी कसले लिन्छ ?? त्यस्तो नचाहने हो भने हाम्रो राजनीतिक नेतृत्वले अनावश्यक राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेप बन्द गर्नु पर्छ ।

राजनीति देशको अभिन्न अंग हो, देशका हरेक क्रियाकलापमा राजनीतिक चासो हुनु स्वाभाविक नै हो ।जनता बाट प्रतक्ष्य चुनिएर गएका र जनता को सेबा गर्छौ भनेर राजनीति मा होमिएकाहरु लाइ हरेक कुरा जान्ने र जनता लाइ सुसुचित गर्ने अधिकार छ । तर त्यसो भन्दैमा योग्यता र क्षमता नभएका आफ्नो पार्टी कै मात्र हितमा काम गर्ने ब्यक्ति लाइ राजनीतिक भागबन्डाका आधारमा नियुक्ति गर्ने अधिकार कुनै राजनीतिक दल र तिनका शिर्ष नेता लाइ छैन ।

देशका लगभग हरेक सार्बजनिक क्षेत्रमा राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेप मौलाएको छ । राजनीतिक दल तिनका नेतालाइ प्रभाब पारेकै भरमा सिमित तत्वले फाइदा लिदै आएका छन । यसै गरि राजनीतिक भागबन्डामा काम गरिदै जाने हो भने शुशासन, जबाफदेहीता , इमान्दारीपन भन्ने कुरा देश बाटै लोप नहोला भन्न सकिन्न । देश को मुहार फेर्छु भनि लागेकाहरुको यस्ता क्रियाकलापहरुले देश सम्मुन्नत अनि सबल होला भनेर बिश्वाश कसरि गर्नु ??

यसै पनि राजनीति भन्ने खराब हो भन्ने छाप परेको छ त्यसमाथि हरेक कुरा मा व्यक्तिगत फाइदा खोज्दै हस्तक्षेप गर्न लागे पछि आम जनता मा कस्तो संदेश जान्छ ?? राजनीतिलाइ कमाइ खाने भाँडो बनाएका हरु ले सोच्नु पर्ने बेला आएको छ अझै यसरि नै मनपरी हस्तक्षेप गर्दै जाने हो भने जनता चुप बस्ने छैनन् । कुनै दिन सारा देश बिद्रोहमा उत्रिने छ । त्यस्तो दिन आउनु भन्दा अगाडी नै हाम्रा नेता हरु ले सिमित माफिया हरुको प्रभाबमा परेर स्वतन्त्र चलिरहेका संघ संस्थान कार्यालय आदिमा राजनीतिक हस्तक्षेप बन्द गर्ने र भएका गल्तिहरु सुधार गर्नु बुद्धिमता पूर्ण हुन्छ ।

युवाको भोगाई : चेजिङ रेन्बोज

2013-12-14T21:14:00.000+05:45

काठमाडौँ लाखौ मान्छे करोडौ सपनाको पोको लिएर बाँचेको शहर । सबका आफ्ना आफ्नै सपना छन अनि सपना पुरा गर्ने एकल दौड,यहाँ सब बिस्तारै बिस्तारै आफ्नो सपनको पोको सके सम्म धेरै खोल्न चाहन्छन । र, यहि क्रम मा आफ्नै देखि टाढा हुन्छन संगै रहेर । त्यसैले त काठमाडौँलाइ आरोप लाग्छ आफ्नै देखि बिरानो बनाइदियो भनेर । त्यस्तै सपना को पोको बोकेर राजधानी छिरेका तिन दिदि भाइ को कथा हिजो राष्ट्रियसभा गृहमा हेरियो ।

नेपाल पानोरमा अन्तर्गत काठमाडौँ अन्तर्राष्ट्रिय पर्वतीय फिल्म महोत्सव (किम्फ) २०१३ को उद्घाटन सत्रमा प्रिमिएर गरिएको साहारा शर्मा निर्देशित चलचित्र चेजिङ रेन्बोज हिजो मात्र हेर्ने मौका जुर्यो ।

सुनेको भन्दा धेरै राम्रो लग्यो चलचित्र अनि कलाकारको जिबन्त अभिनय।

९० मिनेट लामो फिल्मले पढेर आफ्ना सपना पुरा गर्न राजधानी छिरेका तिन दाजु बहिनिको अभावपूर्ण कथा बोलेको छ । सिमित खर्च असिमित रहर अनेकौ चाहना र सपनाहरु बोकेर राजधानी छिर्ने सबै मध्यम र निम्न मध्यमबर्गीय बिद्यार्थी पुस्ताको कथा हो चेजिङ रेन्बोज ।

दिदि,भाइ अनि बहिनि राजधानिमा २ वटा कोठा लिएर बस्छन, तिन जनाकै अलग अलग सपना आफ्नै आफ्नै गन्तब्य । तर एकअर्काका सपना प्रति नितान्त अन्जान । कलेज पढ्ने लगभग एकै उमेर समूहका उनीहरु को कुरा नमिल्ने पनि होइन तर तिनै जना एक्लै एक्लै इन्द्रेणीको खोजिमा छन ।

तिनै जनाको साझा सपना नभएका पनि होइनन,कोठामा टीभी राख्ने दाइलाइ बाइक किनिदिने,सोफा सेट किन्ने लगायत सपना पुरा गर्न सके सम्म कम खर्च गर्ने र कहिले कहिँ खाजा समेत नखाई बचत गर्ने बानीबसालेका छन उनीहरुले ।

कलेज पढ्दै प्रेममा परेकी दिदि प्रेमीको यौन दुर्ब्यबहार सहन बाध्य हुन्छिन । भाइ परिक्ष्यामा फेल हुन्छ आफ्नो रिजल्ट गाउमा बुबालाइ भन्न सक्दैन बरु आत्महत्याको प्रयासमा लाग्छ घरि पोलिथिनले मुख छोपेर घरि ट्यावलेट खाएर त कैले पासो लगाएर । कान्छी बहिनीको अमेरिकन ड्रिमले डिभी भरेर अमेरिका जान खोज्ने पुस्ताको कथाको प्रतिनिधित्व गर्छ । फिल्मले बेला बेला खित्का छोडेर हसाउछ भने कुनै बेला सोच्न बाध्य बनाउछ ।

प्रेम,यौन,अमेरिकन ड्रिम,पढाईमा राम्रो गर्नु पर्ने पारिबारिक दवाब, राजधानीको अभावपूर्ण जीवन,आजका युवाका साझा कथा हुन् । यिनै सेरोफेरोमा रहेर बनेको चलचित्रले युवाले भोगेको मनोगत र सामाजिक द्वन्द लाइ उत्कृस्ट रुपमा देखाएको छ ।

पुरै चलचित्र मलाई आफ्नो अनि आफ्ना साथीहरुको कथा जस्तै लग्यो । कतिको बिगत र धेरै युवा को वर्तमान हो चेजिङ रेन्बोज ।

your heart
has its own sky,
vast
with perfect horizons
of these eyes.
i have often seen
love
laugh and shine
in this happy sky;
it is a sun
with infinite brilliance
and a desire to just
give.
Why let
thought-clouds
pilfer away
a perfectly sunny
day?

I am a child

2013-09-22T21:31:00.000+05:45

I am a child
and yes!
I will make god tonight
I have had enough
of this tiring flight
of fancy
I want a god
that
I need not show,
one
I need not see
...to just be
religious
oh yes!
I will make god tonight
with all strength
of life
in my pores
she pours,
I am going to
undo yours
that knots
my throat
and rocks
my boat
and make
my very own
like none
you’ve ever known
one who neither
tempts
with an apple
nor
squats
in a temple,
neither slices up nations
nor approves
wars and starvations
one who sits with me
and just loves poetry
oh yes!
I will make god tonight
with all i’ve got
soiled linen,
unwashed dishes,
a greasy pot
with just a pure thought,
a god who loves
the perfections
in
the imperfections
she makes
who can share
half bakes
and burnt steaks
and not demand
higher stakes
whose prayer
is to be eased
into
for she
comes
pre-pleased
and is
fun too
I am a child,
and yes
I will make
god tonight
I have had
enough of
this
dark night!

Giving away
was not easy,

रामेश्वर खनालको राजनीति प्रवेशले जगाएको आशा

2013-08-26T23:01:00.001+05:45

पूर्व अर्थसचिव रामेश्वर खनाल नेपाली कांग्रेसमा प्रवेश गरे लगत्तै सामाजिक सञ्जालमा देखिएका मिश्रित प्रतिक्रियाहरू हेरेपछि मलाइ केहि कुरा लेख्न मन लाग्यो । हामी दुवै खनाल पाल्पाली भएकाले 'प्रोक्सिमिटी फ्याक्टर' ले पनि लेख्न घच्घच्याएको होला ।
मेरो सिंगै उमेरभन्दा अझ १० वर्ष लामो निजामती सेवामा रहेर क्षमतावान, इमान्दार र व्यवसायिक छवि बनाएका खनाल चुनावको मिति घोषणा भइसकेको समयमा कुनै राजनीतिक दलमा प्रवेश गर्दा विभिन्न टीका टिप्पणी हुनु जायज हो । सहि मान्छे राजनीतिमा लागेर आफ्नो छवि धमिल्याउने काम गरेको भन्दै उहाँको आलोचना गर्नेसँगै राजनीतिमा लागेकोमा खुसी व्यक्त गर्दै स्वागत गर्नेहरुको दुइ खेमामा ठूलै भीड लागिसकेको छ । मलाइ भने कुनै पार्टी विशेषमा उहाँको प्रवेशले कस्तो प्रभाव पर्छ भन्दा पनि समग्र राजनीतिमा उहाँको प्रवेशले दिएको सन्देश महत्वपूर्ण लाग्यो ।
म अलि बुझ्ने भएदेखि देशको राजनीति र राजनीतिक दलका गतिविधी हेर्दा "पोलिटिक्स इज डर्टी गेम" जस्तो लागेको छ । 'फोहोरी राजनीति' भन्दै यसदेखि टाढा रहन खोज्ने म स्वयं र मेरा समकालीन युवाहरुमा खनालको पार्टी प्रवेशले राम्रो सन्देश दिएको छ । त्यसो त नेपाली राजनीतिमा राम्रा मान्छे हुदै नभएका होइनन तर देशको पछिल्लो राजनीतिक घटनाक्रमले गर्दा भएका राम्रा मान्छेहरु समेत नराम्रोमा गनिन थाले अनि समग्र राजनीति नै फोहोरीहरुको जमघट हुने थलोको रुपमा बुझ्न थाल्यो मेरो पुस्ताले । मेरा १० जना साथीहरूमध्ये ६ जना राजनीतिको कुरा गर्न चाहदैंनन्, बाँकी ४ पनि राजनीति गर्ने इच्छा राख्दैनन् ।
देशको लामो संक्रमण र अस्थिर राजनीतिक अवस्थाले देशमा आफ्नो भविष्य नदेखेर विदेश पस्ने अनि उतैको पीआर लिने उद्देश्यले पासपोर्ट बनाएका मेरा साथीहरुको जमात पनि निकै ठुलो भैसक्यो । यस्तो अवस्थामा अवको ३० वर्ष पछि नेपालमा सक्रिय राजनीति गर्ने मान्छेहरुको खडेरी लाग्ने देख्छु । मेरो पुस्तामा राजनीति प्रति यति वितृष्णा छ कि हामी राष्ट्रिय समाचार सुन्दै सुन्दैनौ किनकि ती सधै एकै प्रकारका हुन्छन् । हाम्रो लागि नेता भन्या रिस पोख्ने अनि गाली गर्ने साधन मात्र हुन् । मेरो पुस्ता बरु मध्यपूर्वको आन्दोलनबारे धेरै जान्दछ तर उसलाई आफ्नो देशको राजनीतिक अवस्थाबारे यही पुस्तामा चलेको शब्दमा भन्दा ‘बाल’ छ ।
किन नहोस् पनि, 'एक जुगमा एक पटक' भन्दै इतिहासमा एकपटक मात्र हुने भनिएको संविधानसभा हाम्रै अगाडी फेल भयो! सबैभन्दा धेरै आशा गरिएका पीएचडी डाक्टर प्रधानमन्त्रीले समेत राम्रो काम गर्न सकेनन बरु उल्टै झन् निराश पारेर छाडे । हाम्रा युवा नेताहरु राम्रा काम र कुरा गरेपछि ६० कटेका 'युवा' नेतृत्वका अगाडि 'बालक' नै रहे । सार्वजनिक खपतका लागि र मिडियामा समाचार बन्न जे पनि बोल्ने तर काम नगर्ने नेताहरुलाइ देख्दा मेरो पुस्ता 'इरिटेट' हुन्छ । त्यसैले तिनै नेताको सवारीको नाममा हुने लामो ट्राफिक जाम देख्दा हामीलाइ राजनीति देखेर घृणा जाग्छ । अनि लोडसेडिंग, महंगी, प्रदूषणको मारमा परेका हामी युरोप, अमेरिका र अस्ट्रेलियामा हाम्रो भविष्य खोज्न बाध्य हुन्छौं । उमेरले हाम्रा 'अंकल' पुगेकाहरू विश्वविद्यालयमा विद्यार्थी राजनीति गर्दै राजनीतिक दलका नेताको कठपुतली र पिछलग्गु भएर हिडेको देख्दा हामीमा राजनीति प्रति खराव भावना आउनु स्वभाविकै हो ।
मजस्ता नवयुवकहरूमा राजनीतिप्रति रहेको वितृष्णा हटाउने एउटा उपाय खनालजस्तै विगतमा राम्रो छवि भएका कुशल व्यक्तिहरु राजनीतिमा प्रवेश गर्नु पनि हो । राजनीतिक दलले यस्ता जनताको माझमा राम्रो छवि बनाएकाहरूलाइ क्षमता र अनुभवअनुसार उचित स्थान दिन सके भने समाजमा राम्रो सन्देश जान्छ । यसले गर्दा हामी कलेज पढ्ने एक बीसे उमेरकाहरू समेत राजनीतिमा लाग्न प्रेरित हुन्छौं । अहिलेका ठुला कुरा मात्र गर्ने नेताको हामीलाई विश्वास छैन । उनीहरुको जात्रा हेरेर हामी हैरान भइसक्यौं । हामी राजनीतिका ठुला कुरा बुझ्दैनौं । हाम्रो लागि राम्रो काम गर्ने नेता को खाँचो छ । त्यसैले हाम्रो मुलुक प्राकृतिक स्रोत र अरु साधनले सम्पन्न हुँदाहुँदै पनि राजनीतिक नेतृत्व सक्षम र इमान्दार नभएकाले पछि परेको निष्कर्ष निकाल्दै राजनीति प्रवेश गरेका खनालजस्तै सक्षम अनि आफ्नो क्षेत्रमा राम्रो काम गरेका र देशको अवस्था राम्रोसँग बुझेका ब्यक्तिहरुको राजनीतिमा प्रवेश हाम्रा लागि प्रेरणादायी हुनेछ ।

My Inspirations

2013-06-13T23:12:00.000+05:45

in·spi·ra·tion

/ˌinspəˈrāSHən/

Noun

The process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, esp. to do something creative: "flashes of inspiration".
The quality of having been so stimulated, esp. when evident in something: "a moment of inspiration in an otherwise dull display".

This is how the dictionary defines the word INSPIRATION. Inspiration is being in a state of mind where everything is possible, everything is clear, and we feel at one with the universe.

Here are my source of inspirations..

1.Mark Zuckerberg :

Not because he is a Brilliant Nerd or the youngest Billionaire on Earth but because he is a Brilliant nerd who knows the NERVE of Human Beings. He invented an internet platform where any Human activity, previously confined to the Physical world could be replicated, and in some cases, Bettered. So on Facebook there is something for everyone- Lots to waste your time, lots to utilise it. Lots to spend your time in thinking of useless relationships, lots to build Business and Work relationships. Lots to lose your contacts in the real world and lots of new contacts in the virtual world. Zuckerberg has changed the way Humans communicate. In the Nascent stage of Facebook, Mark had remarked, "it is something that we dont yet know about, all that i know is, its Cool! what it will become in the future, I dont know". After being valued at $50 Billion with over 750 million subscribers, the world is divided into two types of people: Those who are on Facebook and those Who Will be.... and yet we dont know the real deal that facebook may become in the future. One thing that remains constant although is the fact that Facebook is still 'Cool' !

2.Steve Jobs :

Because he is the Eternal Salesman. Neither an Engineer nor a Graduate, Steve cofounded and ran a Company based on his Vision. He is the quintessential Visionary, a man who dreams big and Materialises them through exemplary ,albeit sometimes compulsively demanding leadership. Steve never created any of those Magic products that he so proudly and stylishly launches. Be it the first computer he created with Stever wozniak to the I pad, steve simply 'Envisioned' it. His story is a real testimony to the fact that you dont have to be a brilliant scientist or an engineer in order to create a company, you just got to say...' idream '!!

3.Dhirubhai Ambani :

Not Because he created India's largest business Empire, but because he created the Empire in the same field of Business in which He once worked as a lowly attendant. Dhirubhai was a Petrol attendant in Yemen and worked for Shell. Although undocumented, I always imagine Dhirubhai standing on the porch of one of Shell's oil rigs, staring into the infinite sea and setting sun and promising himself that One day He will own a company bigger than this. With steely resolve, an unflinching attittude, and a Magical Machiavillian strategy to outmaneuver his detractors, Dhirubhai went on to create a business enterprise in one generation, the same in value as the ones created by Tatas and Birlas in four generations. Another man who Dreamt big and more importantly, believed in them. his legend lies in the fact that he saw business in fields which lay unexplored to fellow competitors. Polyester, Petroleum and Cheap Telephony are some of the few examples.

4.Larry page and Sergei Brin :

Because they own a Multi- Billion Dollar Enterprise whose real assets are on the internet, which in itself (the internet) has no real asset Value! Apart from those massive Servers and their equally massive storage spaces on Land, Sea and presumably even in space, Google is a formidable giant in every activity related to computers and communication, but Doesnt really Manufacture anything themselves. Page and Brin are the guys Bill Gates feared in his dreams, while they were still in their schools. In a 1985 lecture on windows , when asked about the threat from computer giants like Oracle and IBM to Microsoft, Gates jokingly remarked that he didnt fear the Big companies, but was worried about those Nerds who were 'building' something in their school labs or garages. Almost like a prophecy, 10 years later Google was launched and 15 years on, Google is the Biggest Challenger to Microsoft in Computer Dominance. From just being a 'Magical Algorithm' based Search engine to Multi communication service provider in every domain, Google has come a long way and the founders have played Pivotal role right from the start till date.

5.Thomas Edison :

Not because he invented the bulb, but because he was the first Brilliant man , unlike his equally brilliant peers to realise the Potential of Electricity in Human Lives . Because he was the First 'Scientist Entrepreneur' who realised the Potential of his inventions. Ever imagined why people who invented some of the most fantastic machines ever, never actually owned the company which manufactures those products? Sony didnt invent Television, and Nokia didnt invent telephone. Newton ,Einstein, Tesla, Marconi... they all had something in their hands but died Middle class. Edison on the other hand, Invented and Patented..and then Manufactured and Sold, thus creating the Formidable Enterprise, General Electric(GE).

Hope..

2013-03-21T23:09:00.000+05:45

Our world seems so magical,so enchanted,full of joy,laughter,love and harmony.... colorful,playful,moving and fascinating at every moment.i wonder at times that maybe The Almighty God is an artist and we are the observers,the audience,the spectators..

The present seems so beautiful,joyous and cheerful to us at times.Even the littlest things bring us unexpected joy to our lives.And sometimes certain little things hurt us so badly we start thinking why am I always blamed...Why me?then we look at the past and try to recall all the things that did not happen as we wanted them t happen.but we are not supposed to act that way.we should always find ways to solve problems rather than to sit and cry about it..

Our past is always memorable...where every wrong seems just right,where we realise that whatever happened was for the best.But we still wonder what if???what if i had chosen the other way...my life would have been way different than what it is today.But friends,won't you agree with me that life is all about learning from past,living your present and planning your future..

I believe you can always learn from nature and help others in need..I dedicate this article to all those who feel they are somewhere less than someone,whereas actually my friend,you are special,just that you need to find your hidden talent and magic will happen in your life too..

Songs....... For life..

2013-03-06T17:43:00.001+05:45

Who said books are our best friends? I say music and songs are even better...
They are not just something to listen to..
But an inspiration..

Behind every song is an inspiration, someone’s life or even maybe just a part of it..
Every song we hear and listen to..Has inspired us at one moment or the other in our life..
Some songs we cherish and remember through each day while some we dislike and forget at the blink of an eye.
Certain songs make us forget our sorrows and bring a smile to our lips whereas some bring tears to the ignorant ecstatic eyes..
I believe our very life is a song where we begin alone joined by a chorus of friends and then with a duet of love, a ballad of romance, the ode of children and ending with the symphony of instrumental music of old age.

Music is the food to the soul....it enhances our spirit and brings about a change in our hectic scheduled life...

GIVING UP....never ever do it..

2013-03-04T07:40:00.000+05:45

Everybody needs inspiration, everybody needs an example to follow...

while you follow someone, you could still be an inspiration for another..life may have let you down...but why give up like that?

In every home, comes a day where living becomes worse than dying. Love becomes the only hope, dreams being the distant escape. Hatred lurks every corner of the world around you..but still after every storm, comes the calm wind...after every night dawns a brighter day. Things never change, nor do people...but time heals everything..

Giving up is easy...but why settle for things that are easy? work harder each day to find a way leading to your happiness...dreams are yours, only you can achieve them. But giving up on your life would only separate you from your dreams and shatter your heart like a mirror..

So what if others don't care for you? you don't need others to look for you...you have the talent and potential in you and you can achieve what you desire...just believe in yourself!!!

The Naked truth

2013-03-01T09:04:00.003+05:45

The naked truth

Buried under the snow

When came the summer

it started to flow

Ran across the mountains

the flow was fast

traveled through lanes

The ocean was the last

In the journey

Nobody noticed

Nobody glanced at

Many of them overlooked

Many of them trances at

But it was destined to pass

so it did

to get into mid

of a place so vast

it was ocean,its depth

which came at last

The truth is Naked now

window

2013-01-16T07:19:00.000+05:45

I was walking on the road , a paper plane clashed with me.Two boys were laughing from the window. I lifted up the paper plane in order to give back to them ,there was the line printed on a plane,must be of newspaper

" किस्सा एउटा आँखी झयाल हो जहाँ बाट संसार नियाल्न सकिन्छ "

Thoughts for windows suddenly hit me..

Doors have them for best friends; eyes and lungs of the house, windows can be delicate glass, flexible wood, stern steel or shiny aluminium. We stare through them and they stare at us from buildings, at the people being carried away by the streams of streets that flow by.Windows, at times open like hands in prayer, praying homes,schools and offices.Lifting the heavy eyelids of their panes and awnings, they just stare endlessly perhaps for our the safety of our homes and our well being

On a monsoon noon the window dresses up her glass with pearls collected from a slanting shower of seamless driples that flirts with the wind outside and the window inside.Windows wait endlessly, even if we decide to give up on waiting for someone to return, the window continues watch in our absence, little threads of hope flirting at her sill...and if that'someone' arrives,the window conspires with us, lets us encircle the heart's inner eye with a fresh kohl of new dreams.Waiting knows that hope sits at the window sill in a lonely lotus.

Window is an entertaining screen with a billion choices of channels and constantly changing 3-D images. Swipe a finger of a different mood across the mind's touchpad and the image changes outside the window. A thousand poems move ever so gently out there.

Windows, the referral here is not the ones that await a click of the mouse or a flick of the finger, but the concrete entrapped 4X6 wooden frame that wears the plenty of memories from years gone by. A window frame where moonlight sits gently to recognize the touch of elders and the sunlight comes to warm a trembling wrinkled hand

Even today when a glance leaps from the window, it runs to search for the shadow of wonderful memories that still linger at the window..., it returns empty handed.No matter how tightly we tie the blind fold of curtains, bolt it with silence but once a storm stirs deep within the heart and strong emotions lash against its panes, windows of hope re-open and memory-winds blow strong and unrestricted across heart's vacant corridors.Windows are strategically planned when we build houses

How quickly we grow tired of the same view that stares back at us from the living room window. The road down below remains a piece of frozen concrete,The tirelessly repeated view from the window remains just like that GRAND SALE banner hanged between two electrical poles that flutters to seek attention long after the sale's been over.The same exhausting view of the sun mysteriously diving into the plastic water tank atop the neighbour's house and emerging bathed and refreshed,The repetitive views tire us yet they remain so fresh, enthusiastic day after day to lay forth the same wares for us to see...

A house breathes and becomes a living home through its window.Each tension that hangs like a knot in the throat of a house tangled in arguments finds a release, just throw the window open and let the daylight in!A window of desires opens and ushers in a tunnel of hope-light into the soul another

The window is unable to keep its emotions in control,

There was a time womans would sit at the window of her house with her spinning wheel waiting for the return of her beloved, weaving her patience tirelessly into strong threads of hope and love.

The window too gets drenched in showers of pain and pangs for separation tasting the sharp salts of agony that sit on her tongue.While the woman sleeps, the window narrates her tale of woes and waiting to the stars that twinkle in awe and concern. Who knows, which kind hearted star might nudge the sinking Titanic of love toward safer seas or the moon that leans in to listen might just deliver the unwritten love song to the one who needs to listen?

Allow, allow them all and leave the window open, for it could be one of opportunity, hope, love and Godliness. :)

Resolutions you should make every year !

2013-01-01T09:31:00.004+05:45

1. Begin.
Remember the feeling you get from taking the first step is far better than the feeling you get from sitting around thinking about it. So get up and get moving. Take the first step this year – just one small step forward.

The greatest miracle of your success will not be that you finished, it will be that you had the courage to begin.

2. Work hard on the essential.
Don’t be busy, be productive. Don’t track your time, track your results. Put first things first and get them done.

And don’t expect your goal to be easy; it’s supposed to be hard. If it wasn’t hard you would already have it completed, and so would everyone else. The hard part is what makes it worthwhile. In life there are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

3. Stay true to your path.
A successful life is one that is lived through understanding and pursuing one’s own path, not chasing after the dreams of others.

You have to do what’s right for you; no one else walks in your shoes. Keep moving forward, beyond the negative rhetoric echoing from the peanut gallery. Do what you have to do, for you. Live a life you are proud of. And the moment you realize you’re not, find the strength to start over again on a new path.

4. Nurture your self-confidence.
You have everything you need within you to become the best possible version of YOU.

Believe that you CAN. Believe that you’re capable of pushing harder and farther than you have before. Believe that you’re young enough, old enough, smart enough and strong enough to achieve your goals. Don’t let false beliefs stop you from moving beyond yourself. And certainly don’t get sidetracked by the people around you who are not on track. Read Learned Optimism.

5. Focus on solutions.
Life gets better when you choose to make it so. Negative people make lots of noise about how bad things are, while positive people quietly and steadily improve things.

There are always problems, there are always challenges, and there are always people willing to transform those problems and challenges into great opportunities. Those who have the courage, commitment and discipline to do so, create a better life for everyone. Be one of these people. Focus on solutions and work your way eagerly toward a brighter future.

6. Accept the things you can’t change.
What you resist, persists. If you are resisting something, you are feeding it. Any energy you actively fight, you are feeding. If you are using negative energy to push something away, you are inviting it to stay.

Choose to accept what is, be positive and proactive, let go of the need to control every tiny detail, and embrace peace in the process.

7. Leave the past where it belongs.
Don’t stumble over something behind you. Don’t use the past as an excuse to miss out on today. You do not heal the wounds of the past by digging deeper into them.

Acceptance truly is the bitter pill you have to bravely swallow to move beyond yesterday’s sorrows. It’s a choice you must make. Because the truth of the matter is that history only dictates the future if you allow it. In other words, you only have to relive it if you choose to. Read The Power of Now.

8. Balance work with necessary rest.
Sometimes it’s best to rest so you can put a fresh set of eyes on your work. When you’re overworked or burnt out on a project, you become accident prone, and when that happens you’re increasing the chances of turning out suboptimal work.

Novelist Zadie Smith once said, “When you finish your novel, if money is not a desperate priority, if you do not need to sell it at once or be published that very second, put it in a drawer for as long as you can manage. Step away from it all. The secret to editing your work is simple: you need to become its reader instead of its writer.” Even though Smith talks about doing this with a novel, it’s a piece of advice we can all use for just about anything we work on.

9. Set a good example.
It’s not about what you say; it’s about how you live your life every day. The people who look up to you are watching you all the time. These people are like sponges – what they see or feel you do, they will imitate. So remember that your words mean a lot less than what you’re doing. Choose to believe that you can and will change lives with what you do each day, and you will.

Let your actions speak for themselves.

10. Be sincerely kind to everyone around you.
Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates positivity. Kindness in giving creates love.

Through kindness you have the ability to make a profound difference in every life you touch, including your own. When you guide someone who is lost and confused, when you hold someone who is sad and grieving, when you hug someone who has lost all their hope, you too will feel yourself healing and growing stronger.

11. Show your love.
You don’t need to be perfect to be a perfect friend or lover, but the commitment to your relationship is a precious responsibility. Relationships last a lifetime only when two people make a choice to keep it, fight for it, and work for it. These acts of love don’t need to be extravagant either; they just need to be true. And true love is always shown in deeds, not words. Read The 5 Love Languages.

12. Help change one life.
No matter how overwhelming life’s challenges and problems seem to be, or how small you feel at times, YOU can make a difference in the world. What you do truly matters. In fact, the vast majority of positive changes come about in someone’s life simply because one other person cares for them, believes in them, and motivates them.

So be that one person, even if it’s to only one other person.

2012

2013-01-01T01:09:00.001+05:45

Year 2012 is finished. Going through social networkings I found people are divided, one group is celebrating New year, sharing greetings and others, criticizing them, they should follow Nepali calendar and bla... bla.. bla

Even though its an end,I know that the changing of the year really doesn't change anything if we don't learn from those mistakes and lessons of the previous year .
As I look back to the beginning of the year , I see a completely different person than the one I am today Mistakes I made and the decisions I took meant a lot through out the year
2012 taught a lot of lessons in my life, got bunches of opportunities, the whole 2012 was lucky for me

while surfing twitter I saw #2012taughtme was trending .It was very intriguing to see peoples evaluation of year 2012 on few words. Among those 140 words I saw bit regrets,ghosts of broken relationships ,lots of humour and the usual thing don't trust any one,appreciate what you have, some tweets even telling never have regrets. Learn your lesson and move on,not many people actually care about you unless you're doing good, thank god that Mayans were wrong ..and many more
some tweets really went very personal to me

“You can’t always rely on people to make you happy, but you can always rely on food.” I can’t argue with that. Food is always there for me and I’m always there for food. :D

There’s no ‘we’ in food” and “Being fat lowers your chance of getting kidnapped”… ha-ha, I love them

''that you never know when your going to lose someone so close to you. ''

''don't rush into relationships. Chances are, you're better off without one.”

''to appreciate everyone in your life, because the next day they may not be there''

The best part is 21-12-2012 wasn't the end of the world.Mayans went wrong ,which has proven us that we couldn't predict the end of our lives.

Now its time to goodbye 2012, thanks for all memories and welcome 2013
Happy new year people :)

My world of imagination

2012-12-20T08:11:00.000+05:45

I was going through the Nobel 'Pagalbasti' , of Sarubhakta , a very beautiful piece of imagination!
I am impressed with the world created there
some strange kind of feeling went through me...why not to imagine my one world with only me....
i imagined my own world but.....

It was only imagination

I accepted my reality then began to Wish........

I wish I was able to create my own world, my own world with and with only me and just get lost in it. No any disturbance, fear ,pressure
and stresses of reality. Just me, my own perfect and pure world of imagination . some times i feel if
I was given the opportunity or the right to create my own world . where ,I'm the king the queen, and every thing how beautiful would my life be...

If I was handed a blank canvas of my life, with the ability to paint and I was able to choose and to create what happens next, and everything would be exactly the way I want it to be. No one to interfere on my painting, on my world ,and to suggest me
what shades of colors to blend, and what shapes to create......
Just me and the power to do whatever I want ,and create My own world.

My world of my imagination....!

“I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.”
― Albert Einstein

Clouds......!

2012-12-16T23:37:00.001+05:45

“Feelings come and go like clouds in a windy sky''

clouds and feelings come and go, but they both leave something for us. feelings leave memories; and clouds..... Do you remember what clouds left for you...? for me they left their different shapes along with beautiful memories !

viewing sky is my favourite hobby ! This limit less blue thing have lots of things in it. its very smart too :)

some times you can see lots of twinkling stars , moon ,shining and setting sun; and more than that, the beautiful shapes of...wonderful clouds !

When clouds appear like rocks and towers, the earth's refreshed by frequent showers.i get energy by the showers! i can imagine endlessly when i see this clouds...

since imagination gives me tons of satisfaction :)

Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky. ~Rabindranath Tagore

There are no rules of architecture for a castle in the clouds. ~G.K. Chesterton

the beautiful white lake (madi fath ) palpa in the morning !

The clouds, - the only birds that never sleep. ~Victor Hugo

O, beautiful rainbow; - all woven of light!

There's not in thy tissue, one shadow of night;

Heaven surely is open when thou dost appear,

And, bending above thee, the angels draw near,

And sing, - "The rainbow! the rainbow!

The smile of God is here."

~Sarah Josepha Hale

You can't save a cloud like you can save a leaf or a flower or a rock... clouds are now. ~Terri Guillemets

And I saved them as a picture ! :)
