Reflecting Intention Do you think Prachanda, Baidhya, Bhattarai and their colleagues started ‘People’s war’ popularly known as Nepal’s civil war back in 1996 to come into power and accumulate all the resources of Nepal?  Or you think leaders from Nepali Congress and CPN UML started their political journey with the hunger of earning money and getting their dear and near one’s into public position? What was the reason behind them to struggle for democracy and justice when authoritarian regimes were putting a price tag on their life? What motivated them to keep their life into an edge of a knife and struggle for democracy repeatedly?  As a rationale thinker, I can argue that while starting their journey of politics their primary concern was not to earn power, position or money, but to end inequality, discrimination, and establish co-governance, justice system and most importantly develop our country as a free, peaceful and prosperous one. As a result, we witnessed a signifi...

Last year in this very day 7.8 magnitude of earthquake and its after shock later on, took lives of 9000+ individuals whereas destroyed the infrastructures terribly of Nepal.  4 things to do on the remembrance of this day !! 1. Instead of holiday, it should be volunteering day and each citizens should join hand in hand to rebuild the demolished structures.  2.

Everyone specially children and youths should be involved in 'Earthquake drill' so that they practice the technique to save themselves and their community in such disastrous situation in future. 4. Lighting diyo (Candling) at evening will be a good idea t...

Let’s not start with government this time, let’s start with individual. What a person does to achieve something in his life? What does s/he do to become successful? Reading the title of this essay, you must have already presumed the answer is ‘PLAN’. Indeed, almost all of the people in this world have planned, whether it is doing school assignment or preparing breakfast before leaving office, whether it is saving the lives of millions of people through heroic action or murdering someone. Whatever, the action is- most of the time, people plan, consciously or unconsciously. In this essay, I will be highlighting both the ‘Plan’ and the ‘Planning’ as a process, most of the time linking it to different institutions and countries. Plan is a set of actions that have been thought of as a way to do or achieve something (Meriam Webster Dictionary), whereas, planning is the process of making plan to make something done. It is with no doubt that the success that several institutions of Nepal...

She came to class. Her eyes were looking down. She straightly went to last sit of the class and stay there quietly. Teacher started teaching. Class went on. Yes, I have seen many of my friends acting this way in class. I had always wondered why those girls stay quite. What is the reason behind there awkwardness? But my curiosity does not use to be expressed.  Sometimes I felt, when boys can freely play and shout, why they are not allowed to do so? These questions also use to strike my mind during my adolescences. Ya, I was curious then about SEX, about sexual ORGANS, there performance. But, I had no guts to ask and other people and other people had not reason to inform me. Later, I knew mensuration was the cause for their awkwardness then. They used to be tensed and afraid with loads of pain on their body. I sometime also felt that ‘It was kind of diseases’ because at one side nobody used to talk about it and other side girl used to feel shy and problematic. Now, when I rea...

Every living being need water to live, some may need it frequently whereas some may need it in long time gap.

Though, the things he said were discussed two months before, it was reasonable to talk at that time. His saying made most of us to think once again. In August 12, 2012, we youths from different background had organized a program called “Youths, who we are!” in the occasion of International Youth Day. Despite the fact that, two of the organization named ‘We’ for Change and Aarambha had organized the program, it didn’t seemed mature and professional enough. The program consisted more of ‘Fun’, ‘Freelance’, ‘Expression of thought’ and ‘breaking the barriers of Creativity’. Especially, program was focused on “Youth thought”, what they think about themselves, what other thinks about them and what they are capable of doing. ‘We want Cat’ written banner was carried by rats in one of the picture made by one of the group. Then, the small boy explained so logically to that picture that we organizers were completely amazed. He related rats with ‘We Nepalese’ and by cat, one capable, brav...
