Triangular Flag

Triangular Flag


Flag is a piece of cloth or similar material, attachable by one edge to a pole or rope and used as the symbol or emblem of a country or institution or as a decoration during public festivities. Nepal has got a triangular flag with unique identity and meaning in the whole world. The entire history of Nepal can be seen through the flag. The question regarding changing the flag has been hitting in youth’s mind since last few months. It’s little amazing to find why the leaders want to do all these crazy stuffs instead of getting devoted towards their main task.
Can the leaders of today erase the history that Prithivi Narayan Shah united the country by broking down the statute of Prithivi Narayan Shah? If they really can erase the history they have full freedom to change the flag, but if they can not they must respect the flag of the country. These fellows don’t respect the national dress, I wonder if they really care about national animal, bird. Do they know what our national color is? The flag carries the historical memories plus is set within the mind of every single people. It was okay for the national anthem to be changed, but has any one even figured about the difficulties that is there to get set in every individual’s mind? More than fifty percent people today don’t know national song. After changing the flag, can the leaders guarantee that the devotion, patriotism and respect that the citizens have for the flag of today will be remained tomorrow as well? I don’t think the respect exists. Today what is the symbol of unity? We lack king, it’s the flag for which the country is united. We are unknown about the national map too, the encroachment issue must have changed the size and area of our country as well.
The sick leaders are getting sick and they don’t even know what they are doing. All they are after is for their greed. Their selfish nature has been killing the patriotism and has been destroying the image of themselves. It’s the duty of we youths to save our national identity and symbol for peace. Flag should always be kept above the leader’s power. Few days back, I was in a mass where a guy claimed that flag that we are respecting at present does not belong to Nepal but belongs to the king! How can a flag belong to king? Is this truly possible? If yes how? Still today many of us are unknown about the full lyrics of National anthem, at such time how can we make the new flag immortal killing the present flag? So it’s our duty to save the sovereignty by saving the flag! Let’s warn leaders that they do not have right to play with our flag.

Life LiKE DIS~!

Life like this



Hundreds of thousands people just for him. He is dead, so what? They don’t want to miss this last vision to see him. Hundreds of camera’s capturing this movement. It’s damn crowded, but who cares? They want to see him. Yes I am talking about March 21, where there was my couple of eyes among millions. What a life he had! Oh my god! Yesto po zindagi! Do any one except our family members care at the time of our death? See him, those floods of people were there just to see his last movement. The day was sad, the country was sad, every individual were in confusion regarding What next? Who next?

When we take birth, it’a a tradition we have to face death. Death always ends in sadness. All of us get the same life, but only few out of millions make such achievements. Narayan Gopal, Ganeshman Singh, Man Mohan Adhikari, Birendra and yes! Girija! No matter what they did in their personal life, theey are always respected by today’s and tomorrow’s history. When the life span given to us are equal, why not even one single percent out of millions fail to get such respect?

What do we do in our entire life? Do we do anything like them? Umm… yes! They even got various opportunities. But have we even made an attempt to make a try to do such great tasks? All that our life sticks is with the complains, profit and fame. We only rush for pleasures in our life. All we want is tomorrow to be beautiful and that is our final goal. But will that be enough? Will that be satisfactory? Let’s imagine of such life where millions of people wish for us. We will certainly not take all those money we earn when we die. What did Koirala take after his death? He could have earned thousand times more physical property if he would even try to compromise with the national sovereignty. But he would not earn those thousands of people’s mass on that particular day. So what’s profitable? What would have been the use of such of those proprity? It was the first time I saw such respect for a single person. Earlier I had seen the portion on Birendra’s through televevision, but Koirala was not a king, he was a son of normal Nepalese who managed to reach to that peak all through his individual effort. His flexible character managed him to adjust with the time. He was there at the peak when King was in power plus at the time when king was removed as well. This indicates the necessity to get adopted with the changing environment.



There are lot of examples through which we can really learn something. It’s not that it is impossible to be like them but it is difficult for any normal Nepalese. We may not r each to that peak, but we should really make a try out of it. Let people demand for statue on our name, let the highways be constructed on our name as well. And if this is really a desire for even someone his or her first step should be to remove the greedy behavior from ourselves.

Let us not die like the street dog where no one cares after we die. Few simply say, ‘Poor Dog’ and pass away. Let us not live like a street dog that is always after food, who goes ot garbage for food and they live to eat. Let us not be greedy like street dogs that always looks for pleasure and makes it possible when he or she gets any dog of opposite sex. All of us get the same time let’s do something impressive to get atleast thousands of people to walk at the time of our death.

PIRATED OR UNPIRATED?

Mar 23, 2010
PIRACY
‘If you want to save music, you need to save piracy’. Any music artist would say you this. They are right from their view. When artists are completely dedicated towards music itself, they require certain financial position as well. Living a life of celebrity itself is costly and beside that thy also will have to look after their family. It would definitely not suit Sabin Rai to get into micro when he is in the Capital. Nor will a taxi driver offer him free journey. So no one can deny the fact that living a life of celebrity is expensive. But can a celebrity earn enough to live his life in Nepal? The question counts because if the answer would be ‘yes’, obviously Karna Das, Girish Khatiwada, Sanjeev Singh would not migrate abroad. All that celebrity wants from us today is ‘To buy original copy’
But why? If they are having tough time to maintain their financial status, can’t it be that the citizens are also going through tough time? And when it comes to monetary thing, all human beings are greedy. Why would a music lover buy the original copy when he gets DVD or CD filled with dozens of albums in Rs 50, why should he spend Rs 250 for original single album? Even if celebrity were not celebrity, they would not rush for the original track. When there don’t exist quality difference why should a music lover rush for the original copy? I wonder how many Nepalese singers run after original CD’s of International artists. It needs to crystal clear that without piracy it is difficult to earn fame staying in Nepal for any music artists. Bollywood movies are very popular in Nepal from the capital to villages. Why? All because of piracy. A person living in backward place of Nepal talks about Indian movie, all because of piracy.

I don’t mean to say that there must be freedom of piracy, but all I wanted to explain is that artists must be able to compete with the piraters. If Robin Tamang decides to make cheapest price of his album, something like Rs 10 obviously his fan would not rush for the pirated copies. Okay, such drastic change maybe difficult at this particular moment, they why cant they bring attractive skims there? Like collect three different Original CD’s of Nima Rumba and get 20 minutes talk time with him. Or buy Original CD’s of Sugam Pokharel and get a chance to dine with him in his house every week! Or how about the bumper draw to feature Anil Singh in his new song. It could even work like Buy Original CD of Nabin K Bhattarai and get chance of modeling in his upcoming videos. Such skims can definitely bring change in piracy tradition. For these even singers need to be activity. ‘Kill Piracy, Save Music’ would probably not work at the present context.

With the advancement in technology music has been used through various sources. Not just in computer, today music is in I-pod, vell phone, MP3 and even CRBT. It’s impossible for the artists to save piracy from their present way. Personally, I will not rush for the original Cd’s when I get to listen the track I prefer from transferring it into my cell phone via Bluetooth of my cell phone. What about you?
