I adore Nepalese jewellery and believe that it suits traditional outfits such as Dhaka to modern outfits. Uniqueness, skilfully crafted and designed, handmade and contemporary is how I would describe Nepalese jewellery. It oozes with our culture and displays our genuine affection and interest in jewellery. The fact that Nepalese jewellery are not just limited to three or four designs makes it more interesting and gives more freedom to us, women in terms of choosing the type of jewellery we desire for. When it comes to jewellery, trust me, it would be rare to find a Nepalese woman without one piece of jewellery in her house. It is almost impossible.

I often wear Nepalese jewellery such as kade chura with modern outfits and the attention the jewellery gets is astonishing. “Where did I buy them?” is the first question I get from people and the moment I tell them that it came from Nepal, they want to know more about them. Statement jewellery is what I prefer to call them sometimes since it catches people’s attention and manages to make strong statement no matter with what outfit it is being worn.

I have witnessed and many of you must have witnessed the growing popularity of the old and extinct jewellery in the recent time. In UK, we can see all age groups wearing beautiful Nepalese jewellery which makes me feel good. On one hand, it shows our willingness to preserve our Nepalese jewellery and on the other hand, it shows our admiration for them. This also proves that people are living abroad also enormously love and respect our culture and where we come from as the same way like those Nepalese living in Nepal. At the end of the day, our national custom and jewellery are the ones which identify us and set us apart from the rest as Nepalese around the globe. Therefore, I would like to urge people to preserve our Nepalese jewellery and take a pride on wearing them.

‘एउटै सपना , एउटै समुदाय , एउटै समारोह’

शिर्षक बमोजिम क्रमस म गोरखाका बिष्णु श्रेष्ठबारेमा केहि कलम चलाउन चाहन्छु । कैयौलाई यो समाचार थाहा नहुन् पनि सक्छ र धेरै पुरानो भएको पनि हुन् सक्दछ ।यिनी एक भारतीय सेनामा कार्यरत पोखरा निवासी सिपाही हुन् ।भारतीय सेनामा धेरै बर्ष सेवा गरि निबृतिवरण( अवकास प्राप्त )लिई नेपाल फर्कने क्रममा गत बर्ष भारतको गोरखपुर नजिक ४० जना डाकाले आफु चढेको रेलमा मच्चाएको आतंक र एक नारी युवती प्रति गरेको दानवीय ब्यबहारले उनि एक नेपाल आमा, वीर बलभद्र तथा कहिले नझुक्ने गोर्खालीको सच्चा सन्तान बनि नेपाल तथा नेपालीको शिर ठाडो पर्ने कामले उनि हाम्रो हृदयमा सदैब रही रहेका छन ।उनीले देखाएको बहादुरता र साहसको उच्च कदर गर्दै भारत सरकारले सौर्यचक्र, बहादुरी पदक र सर्बोत्तम जीवनरक्षा पदकबाट सम्मान गरेको छ ।बिष्णु श्रेष्ठले एक युवती प्रति डाकाहरुले गर्न खोजेको अपमानजनक कुकृत्य ,आफ्नो मातापिताको सामुने अस्मिता लुट्न खोज्ने र चिकित्षा बिषयमा अध्ययनको तैयारीमा यात्रामा हिडेकी युवती प्रति देखाएको पासविक हर्कत तथा उनको चित्कारले वीर गोर्खालीको मन थाम्न सकेनल आफ्नो जीवनको पर्वाह नगरी केवल नारी मुक्ति र नारीको अस्मिता जोगाउनुबाहेक कुनै बिकल्प नरही ४० जनाको जत्थासंग केवल खुकुरीको भरमा विकासे मुलाकाटे झैँ काटी कोतपर्व झैँ रगतको खोलो बगाए पश्च्यात डाकाहरु घुंडा टेक्न बाध्य बनाउने यी बिष्णु श्रेष्ठ अझ पनि हाम्रो स्मृति पटलमा ताजै छन । भनिन्छ नारी ईश्वरको रुप हो सायद यसैले होला वीर गोर्खालीका सन्तान बिष्णु श्रेष्ठ जसले नारी अत्याचार सहन सकेन र टुलुटुलु मुकदर्शक भएर कायरताको परिचय दिएन, केवल महिला प्रति श्रद्दा भक्ति र चेलीबेटी प्रति देखाएको सम्मानले उनि सदैब चिरिन्जीवी र कालजयी रहुन भन्ने सबैले ईश्वरसंग प्राथना गरेका छन ।नेपाल आमाले यस्तै हजारौ हजार बिष्णु जन्माउनु पर्छ र सबै नेपाली यस्तै बिष्णु बन्नु पर्छ नारी रक्षाको लागि र चेलीको लागि प्राणको आहुति दिनु पर्छ । बिष्णु तिमि सदैब हाम्रो हृदयमा हुने छौ र हाम्रा सन्तान तिमि जस्तै वीर र साहसी हुन् सकुन यहि हाम्रो शुभ कामना ।

बिष्णु श्रेष्ठले महिला प्रति देखाएको सद्भाव हो भने अर्को बिष्णु माया परियार जो गोरखाको बिकट गाउमा जन्म लिई हाल सयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकाको बोस्टनमा, अमेरिकाको बिश्वबिद्यालयवाट उच्च शिक्षा हासिल गरि, बिभिन्न संघ तथा संस्थामा आबद्द महिला बिषय सम्बन्धमा वक्ताको रुपमा सहभागी भै कैयौ पटक आफ्नो बौद्धिकताको परिचय दिई आफ्नो छुटै परिचय र पहिचान बनाई नेपाली चेलीबेटीको नाम उपल्लो स्थानमा राख्न सफल भएकी छिन् । बिष्णु माया परियार, परिचय धेरै दिनु नपर्ला भन्ने यो पंक्तिकार ठान्दछ ।यी चेलीको जीवनी पढने र साहसिक कदमका साथ देखाएको कर्मले जो कोहि पनि आश्चर्य हुन् सक्दछ र गहभरि आशु निस्कन सक्दछ । भिषण संघर्ष गर्दै आमुल परिवर्तन ल्याई बिसेष दलित महिलाको उत्थान प्रति गरेको सामजिक सेवाले यी चेलीलाई सगरमाथाको शिखरमा पुर्याएको छ । अझ हामी त्यो क्षितिज पारी कसैले कोर्न नसकेको ईतिहास समुदायले हेर्न चाहेको छ । ईश्वर सदैब दाहिने हुन् ।सदैब अम्मल दर्जामा पढन सफल यी चेलीको यो पंक्तिकार पनि प्रशंसक हुन् बाध्य भयो । भनिन्छ अरुलाई उज्यालो दिने चिज वा व्यक्तिले आफुलाई जलाएर खरानी वा राख बनाउन सक्नु पर्छ अनिमात्र ईतिहास, समाज र कुनै पनि राष्ट्रमा उसको नाम सुनौको अक्षरमा लेखिन्छ ।समयले यो सबै उद्घोष गर्ने छ ,विश्व बैंकवाट पहिले सम्मानित भै ठुलो राशी प्राप्त गरि बालबालिकाहरुको लागि पाठशाला निर्माण ,छात्रबृद्दी तथा करौड़ोको लगानीले समाजले बिष्णुमाया परियारको कार्य प्रति चरम आनन्दको अनुभूति गरि रहेको छ ।

सानै उमेर देखि हिंसा पिडित महिला, महिला उत्थान र महिला शसक्तिकरण सम्बन्धि बिसेष चासो राख्ने र निश्चित बिन्दुमा यो अभियानलाई पुर्याउने दिशामा तल्लिन एक दलित परिवारमा जन्म लिई यो अवस्थासम्म महिला विकास र उनीले गरेको अद्भूत कार्य तथा बिष्णुले उठाएको चौतर्फी गुन्जायमान हुन् थालेको छ Iराष्ट्र र समाजले यो आवाज टड्कारो रुपमा सुन्न थाली सकेको छ ।यो खाडल बिस्तारै यहि कालखण्डमा पुरिने छ । बिभिन्न अन्तरराष्ट्रिय पुरस्कारवाट सम्मान प्राप्त भै सकेकी बिष्णु माया परियार प्रति हार्दिक मंगलमय शुभकामना छ । हामी सबैको प्रेरणाको श्रोत बन्न सफल भएकी छिन्, हाम्रो समाजले आखा खोल्ने छ, यिनीले गरेको असल कर्मले सारा चिज एक दिन हिउ पग्लेको जस्तै पग्लने छ ।हालसालै पुन :विश्व बैंक वाशिंगटन डिसीमा आयोजित कार्यक्रममा यिनीले देखाएको नेतृत्वपनले अझ नेपाल र नेपालीहरुको शान बृहत भएको छ ।समाजले यस्ता निस्वार्थ सामाजिक सेवामा लाग्ने तथा नेपालकै गरिमा बृद्दी गर्ने बिष्णु माया परियार जस्ता चेली जन्माउन सकोस ।हामी पनि यो महा यज्ञमा होमिन सकौ ।नोबल पुरस्कार जस्ता विश्वविख्यात पुरस्कार प्राप्त गर्न सकुन भविष्यले त्यो दिन आफै निर्धारण गर्ने छ ।यस्तै शुभ आसिकको साथ चेलीलाई कोटी कोटी शुभकामना ।

अन्त्यमा दुई बिष्णु प्रति श्रदा ब्यक्त गर्दै अर्का वीर नेपालीले देखाएको बहादुरताले शरीर जिरिंग र कम्पन उत्त्पन्न हुन्छ ।अहिले नै युद्द मैदानमा उत्रनु जस्तो जोस आउदछ, यिनी पश्चिम नेपालका एक युवा हुन् जो हाल बेलायती सेनामा सेवारत छन् ।नेपालीहरु सुरबीर भएको कारणले नै होला सायद शताब्दी पहिले देखिने बेलायती सेनामा संलग्न भएको ईतिहासले देखाउदछ । यिनको नाम दिप प्रसाद पुन हो सारै मजबूत ह्याकुला (मुटु) भएका बेलायती नेपाली सिपाही जसले अफगानिस्थानमा ३० जना आतंकबादीलाई एकल रुपमा चारै तर्फवाट आक्रमण गर्दा पनि गोर्खालीको नाम बेलायती ईतिहासमा दोश्रो ठुलो पदक प्राप्त गरि सबै नेपालीको शिर उच्च राख्न सफल भए ।उनीले सबै आतंकबादी लडाकुहरुलाई तलाई मार्छु र तिमिहरुलाई मारेर मात्र प्राण त्याग गर्छु जस्ता बुलन्द आवाज तथा हुंकारले हाम्रो रगत भकभक उम्लिन्छ ।अत्यन्तै मार्मिक र भयानक कहानीले हामी गोर्खालीहरुको पृथक पहिचान बनाउन सफल भएको छ । अन्त्यमा नेपाल आमा तिमीले कैयौ दिप प्रसाद पुन जन्माउनु पर्दछ, र पटक पटक दिप प्रसाद पुन जस्तै पुनर्जन्म भै रहनु पर्छ । दिप प्रसाद पुन, तिमि जस्तै हामी हुनु पर्दछ र केवल धवान्सात्मक गतिबिधि मात्र अपनाउनेलाई तिमि जस्तै बनेर परास्त बनाउनु पर्दछ ।तिमिले खेलेको भूमिकाले हाम्रो शिर उच्च छ । हामी सदैब तिमीहरुजस्ता सन्तान नेपालको माटोमा जन्म हुन् सकोस र विश्वमा नेपालको झन्डा फर फराउँन सफल होस् यहि शुभकामना सहित बिदा !

After fours years of dillydallying and very casual efforts of discussion in the Constituent Assembly (CA) in the name of drafting the statute of the country, that should be completed by the period of 2yrs time, as per the public mandate, the chieftain/s of the large political parties including the United Communist Party – Maoist (UCPN-M), leader Mr. Puspa Kamal Dahal (Prachanda) with all the unbelievable and unpredictable clues, logics and pleadings, were now in trouble, because there are hardly 11 days to go to complete the fourth time extended life of the Constituent Assembly (CA). By the period of 4yrs time, the CA members were reportedly assembled hardly for 8 to 10 such meetings in which the issue of drafting the new constitution of Federal Democratic system was discussed? More than 7 billions of rupees were reportedly consumed so far in the name of drafting the new constitution. But the CONSENSUS for the purpose, the only assignment given by people to 601 representatives is yet to expect. Will it be really drafted in time and the final constitution will be given to the people?

Mr. Madhav Kumar Nepal, former Prime Minister and the leader of UML-N, another left party and 3rd largest part in CA was still hopeful of extending the life of CA by 44 days more. The CA will keep in work till July 14, 2012 (31st of Asadh, 2069), he predicted.

Now the Constitutional Court:
The chieftains of all the political parties in the CA were now happy for they have compromised in a point at setting up of the Constitutional Court (CC) of the country. The United Democratic Madhesi Front (UDMF) proposed that the Court should be established with the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court as the head of the CC. And the term of the Court will be for five years. The chieftains have taken it as their big adventure so far achieved in their 4yrs of dillydallying efforts. They believe that the Constitutional Court will help solve all the disputes related with big five issues like Federalism, Forms of Government, Election system, Judiciary and Citizenship. The number of members in the body of CC will be decided later and the appointment of the members will be apolitical, the proposal claimed.

Several concepts and ideas about the nature, rights and activities concerned of CC have still being flowed in the discussion held in CA meetings. The largest party has become more than happy for their intension to keep the SC away from the CA affairs would be successful. Similarly, they might be successful even in forming the Government with the President and the Prime Minister of their own being directly elected from the public and the Parliament as per their political gimmicks.

Why the CC?
The Constitutional Court could be a substitution of the Supreme Court (SC), or the Judiciary, one of the three autonomous bodies of the Government. After the last request (the 5th one) for extension of the term of CA filed by the Prime Minister, Dr. Babu Ram Bhattarai and the Chairman of the CA, Mr. Subash Chandra Nemwang, was rejected by the SC, the CA members were not happy with the SC. They were in mood even to impeach the judges of the SC. Thus the biased CA members with the Judiciary had tried to keep the SC almost defunct in the State of Affairs. Unfortunately, they could not do it with. Therefore, the CC has become a best outcome of their cunning ideas, the experts believed. In other words, the CC could be a product like a Test-tube baby of the Maoist leader/s. The CC was supposed to deal with all the concerns of the State Affair that the SC used to look for. They (CA members) wanted that the Legislature should be the only supreme autonomous body of the Government. And the Prime Minister was the only supreme body, who could be accountable to all the affairs took place in the Parliament as per his decision. The Judiciary, the SC wouldn’t be concerned any more for whatever may the Legislative Body does.

Federalism:
There are hardly 11 days to go to complete the term of CA. The President, the Prime Minister and all the political party leaders and the UCPN-Maoist leader, Mr. Prachanda have assured the people to bring the Constitution of Federalism by 27th of May 2012. But CA meetings have been prolonged and prolonged without any conclusion on fixing the numbers of the provinces of the Federal State. The country which is supposed to belong to 7 or 8 or 11 provinces has yet to be concluded even after more than ten similar meetings held last weeks. Whereas, in other hand, the Federalism itself is yet to be cleared well to the people including the 601 CA members themselves and it wouldn’t be possible unless the statute was promulgated.

More Dillydallying:
The new agenda in the Parliament to add a post of a Commandership in the army has come as an another untimely issue at the time when the Constitution writing itself, has no more time even, about 11 days hardly. In the meantime, another new proposal of reintegration of army has been tabled, whereas, the integration work has just being done and more than 6000 Maoist fighters (2/3rd of the remaining total strength of Maoist fighters, as per their claim) have been self retired and other were just integrated in the army.

Safe Landing:
Dr. Babu Ram Bhattarai, the Prime Minister has become successful to form a new Government, reportedly now with consensus of all the political parties. The new Government include four Deputy Prime Ministers all representing each the Maoist party, Nepali Congress, UML-N, another left party and Madhesi Front. He has also achieved the consent of all parties but a few to form 11 provinces/states in the country and a provision to add certain powers for new President of the Country. The observation was made that the present cabinet and the Constituent Assembly was now very much in safe side to promulgate the new constitution and to introduce the Constitutional Court. The new Government could also conduct the elections for the President and the Prime Minister as well, the new proposal stated.

New Constitution:
However, since the top brass have been assuring the people to promulgate the New Constitution, the new constitution could be introduced, no doubt. The new Deputy Prime Minister representing the Nepali Congress in the Cabinet Mr. Krishna Sitaula believes that the new Constitution would be introduced even before the 27th May. The observers, in the meantime believe that the expected new constitution as per assurances made by top brass will not bother to borrow any effort from the related CA members. Because of the time shortage, Constitution writing botheration will go to certain group of experts, no matter whether they are Nepalese or foreigners. The constitution writing could be a part of trade. It would certainly cost a good amount of money.

Last but not the least; Nepali will get the new Constitution! But no one knows what the Constitution will be like?

It’s as clear as crystal that we’ve been hit by a new wave of Nepali movies lately which is definitely a great thing because let’s face it, exclamations like “Oh, I can’t wait for it to release!” and “Man, that was really good” were either meant for Hollywood or Bollywood cinemas.

Yes, we have witnessed a series of locally produced films with fresh concepts and unconventional style of directions but at the same time, we can’t say all of them have managed to impress the audience, although their effort is appreciable. After all, change is a steady process and we can’t expect things to be absolutely different overnight. Anyway, I recently happened to discover a trailer for one of the upcoming films and its title should definitely have you interested. It’s called Facebook.

Supposed to be based on the popular social networking site, Facebook has been produced by Sunil Kumar Thapa and directed by Suraj Subba. The film, which was shot partly in Kathmandu and partly in Singapore, features Rajesh Hamal, Jharana Thapa, Subash Thapa, Wilson Bikram Rai, and Anurag Man Singh Kunwar among others and is set for nationwide release on Shrawan 15. When I caught its poster for the first time, I was kind of very excited because it looked promising. So it got me really expectant and I couldn’t help but watch its trailer. And let’s just say, it didn’t quite meet my expectations.

From the video clip, you can figure out that there’s a bit of love story going on and then alongside it’s also an action/crime thriller which is a staple of almost every Nepali picture. However, I was left wondering to myself, “Where the hell does the FB part come in?” Yeah, there’s actually no sign of the FB thing in the trailer so we can only hope that they’ve saved it in the movie itself. But my main concern is the ditto logo of FB they’ve used. I hope they won’t get in any sort of trouble, even though there isn’t much chance of it.

In United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland, the height of her success is reaching its peak. Even though she is based in London, she still contributes a great deal to Nepalese economy as the fibres used for her collection are imported from Nepal.  We managed to interview  her who we found is a very humble and quite busy lady. Let us witness her journey to the stardom together.

1. How was your journey from Nepal to UK in terms of breaking into both fashion markets. What difference did you find between these two fashion market?

Breaking in both markets was not easy but naturally, it was more obvious that breaking into international market was not easy at all especially when you are in a new country with no connection to the fashion field, you need to pave the way for your career.

2. What inspired you to get into fashion designing at the first place?

My passion for art and design.

3. You have previously designed in Miss Nepal, if you get offer to design for Miss Nepal again would you consider designing for them?

Yes, I will.

4. Lakhotia Institute and London College of Fashion is where you studied for your fashion designing. Can you briefly talk about what you managed to grasp and learn from each academic institute?

I studied in both as I did diploma from Lakhotia Institute and degree from London College of Fashion. I guess in Lakhotia, I learn to crawl in the fashion world and in London College of Fashion I learn to walk. It was a natural growth.

5. Did you face any difficulties/hardships during your time in London studying and trying to break into the bridal market?

I guess I chose a long voyage where hardship is part of it. Breaking into international industry is certainly not easy. Many hurdles came but my objective would be just following my path that keeps my journey happy and meaningful.

6. What inspired you into designing bridal gown and head gears?

I have been always passionate about bringing inner beauty of woman through my design. I believe designing for brides is very fulfilling as you tend to become the important part of someone’s lifetime dream.

7. Your whole brand is focused on eco credentials and is USP for your brand. Do you believe people buy more eco-friendly products than non-eco-friendly products at the moment ?

I believe the more people are aware about the benefit of having eco-friendly products than man-made chemically treated products and its impact to our earth and oneself, the growth is inevitable.

8. The materials you use for your clothes do you get them from Nepal?

Yes indeed. Most of Organic and fair-traded natural fabrics like Organic cotton and bamboos, Nettle, hemp, banana fibres are hand-woven in Nepal

9. Talking about Nepali fashion industry, do you feel that there have been any improvements in the industry?

Yes, I can see many emerging talented designers in Nepal and the models. Our Nepali fashion industry will surely grow.

10. What do you like to do in your usual time?

Just to be with my husband and share dreams.

11. Your favourite fashion designer

Late Alexander McQueen & Valentino.

12. Your inspiration

My family!

13. Any plans to go back to Nepal?

Many plans!! Actually I am always up and down in Nepal and UK.

14. Your favourite food

Momo.

15. Any advise to young people aspiring to become fashion designer?

Learn your skill, study hard and try to find a fashion related apprentice work. Get ready for all hurdles that you may find on your way but remember determination, perseverance and believing own self is a key to a goal.

Finally, be prepared that being a fashion designer isn’t glamorous all the time!

When this inspection process started, the authorities didn’t have the device i.e. breathaliser or breath analyser. They used to make people breathe out right in front of traffic policemen’s face to smell the stench of alcohol. They now say since it wasn’t healthy, they got the device. So my question here is, if they knew the procedure was unhealthy already, how could they start it in the first place? How could they show concern of the public safety while putting their own personnel in duty at risk? Okay, to shed more light on, I’ll explain a scene of a general pre-breathaliser DUI inspection. You ride/drive up to a MA PA SE checking point, then a traffic policeman will ask you questions like “Kaha gayera aunu bhako?” and “K kaam garnu hunchha?”, you know queries that are not really of their concern and carrying out a conversation so that they can get a sniff of your alcohol-inflicted breath. I heard some even took the interrogation to a funnier extent asking “Bhaat khanu bhayo?” or something…LOL

Talking to reporters, MTPD says that once they’ve caught someone drunk driving, the driver is asked to call someone they know to fetch the vehicle and drive it to the respective destination. But that only happens when the driver’s alcohol consumption level is too high and is really not in a conditional to drive. However, in the case of lower levels, they just seize your legal documents and let you go. So if the person is able to drive home safely after drinking a little amount, why impose them of DUI and cause sheer inconvenience? It’s a torture as well when you go to collect your licence the next day. Imagine intolerably long queues for paying the fine as well as to collect your document.

In a country where consuming alcohol is not only about means of socialising but also a part of culture and tradition, although not in a greater amount, to impose a zero-limit is absolutely unjustifiable. Perhaps this zero tolerance can be explained. From the fine collected from every DUI case, personnel get a certain percentage of commission. Even if it’s just a small amount, just imagine how huge it will be after summing up the fines retrieved from all the drunk drivers. While the authorities are getting richer with their share of commissions, restaurants and pubs are facing a loss of millions of rupees because the people are too scared of the MA PA SE to drink. And although the number of road accidents has decreased a lot, it feels like the police are giving unnecessary hassle in the name of our safety.

Oh, BTW, I googled if there were other countries with zero tolerance DUI. Turned out there were but the only difference between those nations and Nepal was of “development”. Maybe MTPD should start catching up on that too?

बुद्ध मलाई माफ गर ,
तिम्रो सम्झना मलाई बर्ष मा एक दिन मात्र आउछ,
तिमी छौ भन्ने कुरो पात्रो ले मात्र सम्झाउछ ,
के गर्ने बुद्ध म साह्रै स्वर्थी भको छु ,
तिम्रो याद मलाई जयन्ती मा मात्र आउछ ।

म पापी हुँ
तेइ भएर मेरो मन मा तिमी छैनउ
तिम्लाई हिन्सा मन पर्दैन ,
म त पैसा तिरेर हिन्सा हेर्न जान्छु
तिमी कुटिलता जान्दैनो
म त बर्षइ भरी कुटिलता पालेर बस्छु
एल्लाई कसरी पछाडि पारु ?
एस्को खुट्टा कसरी तानु ?
यो भन्दा अगाडि म कसरी बढु ?
म त मेरो समय अरु को कुभलो मा बिताउछु ,
तेइ भएर त म पापी हुँ र त तिमी मेरो मन मा छैनउ,
बुद्ध तिमी कहाँ छौ ?

मैले सुनेको लुम्बिनी बाट तिमी हिंडि सक्यौ रे ,
लुम्बिनी हिजो आज मधेस र थारु को युद्ध मा चौपट छ रे ,
त्यो देखेर तिमी लुसुक्क कसैलाई नभनी राती हिंडेउ रे
बुद्ध तिमी त्यहाँ बाट भागी सक्यौ रे !

तिम्लाई काठमाडौं मा देखे भन्ने पनि भेटे मैले ,
बौद्ध र स्वयम्भु मा देखा परेउ रे ,
पहेलो बस्त्र मा तिमी मन्त्र जप्दै थेउ रे,
अनी एक्कासी बम को आवाज ले तिमी झस्केउ रे ,
अनी फेरी तिमी त्यहाँ बाट पनि बेपत्ता भएउ रे ।
तिम्लाई शान्त चाहिन्छ तर त्यहाँ शान्ती छैन ,
तिम्लाई प्रेम चाहिन्छ तर त्यहाँ प्रेम छैन ,
तिम्लाई अहिन्सा चाहिन्छ बुद्ध तर त्यहाँ बम बाहेक केही छैन,
तेइ भएर तिमी सबै को प्यारो राजधानी छोडेर हिंडेउ रे ।
बुद्ध तिमी कहाँ छौ ?

मैले बोध गया मा नि बुझे,
त्यहाँ तिमी कहिल्यै फर्केनौ रे ,
तिम्रो जन्म स्थान नै नक्कली बनयो भनेर दु:ख मानेउ रे ,
तिम्ले तेसो गर्न नहुने पो थियो कि भनेर अशोक लाई नि भनेउ रे
तर अशोक हिजो आज ब्यस्त छ ,
उ अग्नी को परिक्षण गर्दै छ ,
उस्लाई धर्ती मा बसेर आकाश को मिसाइल खसाउनु छ ,
त्यहाँ केबल घृणा छ , तेइ भएर तिमी त्यहाँ छैनउ ,
बुद्ध तिमी कहाँ छौ ?

मैले सुनेको तिम्लाई अमेरिका लगेर बेचे रे ,
कुन पापी ले तिम्लाई झुक्याएर बेहोसी मा अमेरिका लगेर -
टाईम वार्नर को ठुलो घर मा लगेर लीलामी गर्‍यो रे,
बजार को बिकाउ बस्ती जस्तै तिमी मा मोल चढाई भयो रे,
तिम्लाई त अमेरिका मा सामान सरि बेच्न राखे रे ,
बुद्ध तर मलाइ थाहा छ तिमी त्यहाँ पनि छैनउ ,
अमेरिका त आँफै मा आतंक हो ,
हिन्सा को परीभाषा हो ,
बिनासकारी हो ,
अनी तिम्लाई त बिनास मन पर्दैन ,
हिन्सा तिम्रो कतै छुदैन ।
कुनै खरबपती ले आफ्नो घर मा सजाउन राखेको बाकस बाट सुटुक्क निस्केर हिंडेउ रे ,
किन कि तिमी स्वतन्त्रता मा विश्वाश गर्छौ कुनै सिसा ले तिम्लाई छेक्दैन रे ।
तेइ भएर तिमी त्यहाँ छैनउ रे ,
बुद्ध तिमी कहाँ छौ ?

शायद मैले ग्रन्थ मा पढेको ,
मेरा बा ले भनेको सुनेको ,
तिमी कतै ठुलो आकाश मा तीन तारा भनेर बसेको छौ होला ,
तिम्लाई चाहेको जस्तो शान्ती त्यहाँ मात्र छ ,
किनकी त्यहाँ मानब छैन ,
तेइ भएर त त्यहाँ शान्त छ ,
तर कैले सम्म थाहा छैन ,
कुनै दिन मानिस ले फेरी प्रगती गर्ला
ठुलो मा ठुलो हतियार बनाउला ,
तिमी बसेको तारा पनि झार्ला
अनी फेरी तिमी कहाँ जान्छौ बुद्ध
तिमी अर्को बास्स्थान खोज्दै गर है ,
मानब दानब भैसक्यो भन्ने कुरा याद राख है ,
बुद्ध तिमी फेरी अर्को ठाउँ खोज है ।
