Deusi and Bhailo




Deusi and Bhailo.
Interesting Fact about Deusi and Bhailo...... King Bali during his rule asked specially children, youths and adults to go to others home and praise them to motivate them to donate something.

A brief introduction of King Bali: Demon King Bali, the grandson of Prahlada was a true devotee of Lord Vishnu. With the Lord's blessings,he had become invincible in the battle field and managed to defeat all Devas. The entire heaven, especially Lord Indra, became apprehensive about his increasing strength. At last, Lord Vishnu disguised as Bamana (dwarf), arrived on earth, to rescue Indra and other Devas from their plight. King Bali had the reputation of being a generous and good king. Using this quality, Vamana asked for space which could be covered in three sides.
Surely a dwarf could not cover much ground, thought the King, and agreed to his request. At this point, the dwarf changed into Vishnu and his three strides covered the Earth, the Skies and the whole Universe. As a result, Bali was sent to nether lands.
But we all know, Gods are ever generous and cannot see their true devotees suffer. So Lord Vishnu decided to protect Bali and brought him back from nether land. Bali was promised divine protection and immortality till the next aeon, when he will be crowned Indra. Lord Vishnu disguised himself, as Bali's doorman, and protected him from all dangers.
As a result, Vainkuntha was devoid of the Lord and Goddess Lakshmi became restless. She descended on earth as a Brahmin woman in an attempt to bring back her love. She told Bali, that her husband has gone away for a long errand and she needed a place to stay. King Bali welcomed her full heartedly and protected her as his own sister. Since the arrival of the Brahmin woman, i.e. , the Goddess herself the entire household of Bali was suddenly blooming with happiness, wealth, and harvest.

Why deusi and Bhailo?
King Bali had blessing from Goddess Laxmi because of his generous quality so he wanted to encourage the donating habit among his citizen and also wanted the children and youths and adults to drop their ego by asking for donation. So those who donated would get blessing from Goddess Laxmi and those who asked for lose their ego. The donated amount was again used to feed the poor ones. What a culture we have.....Everything is scientific...heheh smile :)

Nepal launches drones to combat poachers

Nepal launches drones to combat poachers

KATHMANDU: Conservationists in Nepal are to send drone aircraft into the skies in the battle to save the Himalayan nation's endangered tigers and rhinos from poachers.
WWF Nepal said it had successfully tested two unmanned "conservation drones" earlier this month in Chitwan National Park, in Nepal's southern plains, the home of a number of the world's rarest animals.




The remote-controlled aircraft, being used for the first time in Nepal, would monitor the animals and poachers via cameras and GPS to capture images and video, the organisation said in a statement earlier this week.
The aircraft, with a two-metre (6.5-foot) wing span and a range of 25 kilometres (15.5 miles), can stay in the air for 45 minutes, flying at an altitude of up to 200 metres.
"WWF Nepal has been introducing new science and technology to aid ongoing conservation efforts in Nepal. The conservation drones are the latest addition," said Anil Manandhar, the organisation's representative in Kathmandu.
"We believe that this technology will be instrumental in monitoring Nepal's flagship species and curbing illegal wildlife trade."
Thousands of tigers and greater one-horned rhinos, also known as the Indian rhinoceros, once roamed Nepal and northern India but their numbers plunged over the last century due to poaching and human encroachment on their habitat.
Rhinos are killed for their horns, which are prized for their reputed medicinal qualities in China and southeast Asia, while tiger skins, meat and bones are also in high demand.

Know-How of River Basins
The splendid rivers of Nepal can be divided into three categories in accordance to their origins. The first category comprises the three main river systems of the country - the Koshi, Gandaki and Karnali river systems, all of them originating from glaciers and snow-fed lakes.

The Koshi River System
  • The Koshi river system consists of Tamor, Arun, Dudhkoshi, Likhu, Tamakoshi, Sunkoshi and Indravati rivers.
  • The Arun and Sunkoshi originate in Tibet. The confluence of these rivers is at Tribeni (near Dharan) in Sagarmatha Zone.
  • Flowing for almost 10 kms through a narrow gorge before entering the plains, the 'Sapta Kosi' or simply the 'Koshi', swollen with the waters of the seven rivers, finally merges into the Ganges.
  • The Kali Gandaki originates in Mustang and converges with the Trishuli at Deoghat in Chitwan. The river is then called the 'Narayani' and goes on to meet the Ganges.
The Gandaki River System
  • The Kali Gandaki originates in Mustang and converges with the Trishuli at Deoghat in Chitwan. The river is then called the 'Narayani' and goes on to meet the Ganges.
  • The Gandaki river system in central Nepal consists of the Kali Gandaki, Budhi Gandaki, Marsyanghi, Trishuli, Seti, Madi and Daraundi rivers.
  • The Kaligandaki is the longest river and the Trishuli, the main tributary of this system.
The Karnali River System
  • The Karnali river system in Western Nepal consists of the Humla Karnali, Mugu Karnali, Seti and Bheri rivers and is the longest river system in the country.
  • The Humla Karnali, which rises in Tibet, is the main tributary. After entering India, this river assumes the name Gogra.

Nepal’s Gurkhas battle to stay in British military

Nepal’s Gurkhas battle to stay in British military

HI GUYS THIS IS SURAJ WANT TO TELL SOME NEWS ABOUT THE GURKHAS BRITISH MILITARY 
New rules gave Gurkhas serving after 1997 the same benefits, pay and pension as their British counterparts and the right to live in Britain.


KATHMANDU, NEPAL—Deo Man Limbu sat in a veterans hall lined with pictures of old soldiers and reflected on his years of service, his battles and his dreams. The retired major with Britain’s legendary Gurkhas faced the Argentines in the 1982 Falklands War, when being a member of one of the world’s most-feared fighting forces had its advantages.
Well before hostilities started, British military planners encouraged photos of Gurkhas sharpening their fearsome curved knives — no one seemed to ask why you would bring a knife to a gunfight — and media stories about their fighting prowess.
The day before the final battle, loudspeakers warned the Argentines that the Gurkhas were coming. “We fired one or two shots and they all flew away,” said Limbu. “It was very effective.”
Other conflicts were not as easily won. Limbu tells of Gurkhas who were decorated in the First and Second World Wars, saw action in Borneo and died in Afghanistan in the 1980s, as well as in the last decade.
“We fought many enemies,” said Limbu, 60, who has the air of a dapper gentleman in a blue blazer, checked dress shirt and well-pressed brown pants. “But our politicians in Nepal are the worst.”
Today, the Gurkhas’ proud two-century tradition with the British army is under siege. Some in the communist-led Nepalese government object to the Gurkhas being hired guns for a former colonial power and are proposing to ban the practice, just as the British government makes deep cuts in its defence spending.
Britain’s connection with the Gurkhas dates to 1815 when, having barely defeated them in battle, the British decided that if you can’t beat them, have them join you. Since then, hundreds of thousands of Gurkhas have served under the Union Jack in peacetime and in war. For much of that history, Gurkhas did a lot of heavy lifting but earned less than British soldiers. After a headline-grabbing campaign in 2009, new rules gave Gurkhas serving after 1997 the same benefits, pay and pension as their British counterparts and the right to live in Britain. But those who served previously continue to receive a fraction of that, creating a two-tier system that has led to squabbling among Gurkhas.
Of course, even the lower pay is good by Nepalese standards: last year, more than 6,000 applicants competed for 176 positions.
Hopefuls aged 17 to 21 must do 70 sit-ups in two minutes and run uphill for 40 minutes carrying 32 kilograms of rocks to qualify. If they’re too old, some forge documents and dye their hair to mask their age, a little subterfuge that occasionally comes off in the rain. Others have been caught using steroids for endurance.
Gurkhas derive their name from the Nepali hill town of Gorkha. They’re blessed, according to legend, by the eighth-century Hindu warrior-saint Guru Gorakhnath, who gave them their famous knife, the kukri.
Gurkha loyalty, fighting skills and determination in the face of near-impossible odds are legendary. Former Indian Army Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw once famously said: “If a man says he is not afraid of dying, he is either lying or he is a Gurkha.”
But some Gurkhas say these glowing compliments mask a relationship based on condescension.
“The British like Gurkhas very much, until the Gurkhas cross the line and try to compete as equals,” said Deepak Bahadur Gurung, a pre-1997 soldier. “As long as you’re under them and you’re very loyal, they like you.”
British officers counter that pre-1997 Gurkhas knew the terms and pay when they signed up. “Given the understanding at the time, they’re looked after well,” said Col. Andrew Mills, defence attache at the British Embassy in Kathmandu, Nepal’s capital.
The Gurkhas have their share of myths, especially involving the evil-looking kukri. One holds that the 45-centimetre tapered blade can serve as a boomerang. According to another, it must taste blood once unsheathed, even if a Gurkha has to cut himself.
These stories sow fear, aiding in psychological warfare that worked against the Germans and Japanese during the Second World War and helped turn the tide in the Falklands, military experts say.
Gurkhas are frequently called on to guard VIPs, given their reputation for loyalty after siding with Britain during the 1857 Indian Mutiny. During a year spent in Buckingham Palace protecting Queen Elizabeth II, Gurung attended 150 cocktail parties.
Among the dignitaries he observed, then-Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was particularly impressive, he said. “She was as tough as a Gurkha.”
Although the pull is still strong, some military analysts are questioning the Gurkhas’ future. Britain will take just 126 this year and has seen 400 Gurkhas lose their jobs, reducing to 3,200 the number in active service, a tiny fraction of the 200,000 during the Second World War.
“If you took them down much further, you’d risk ruining the mix,” said Chris Bellamy, a military historian and author of The Gurkhas: Special Force.
Recently, British officers and Gurkha veterans groups have emphasized the extent to which Britain and India contribute to Nepal’s economy — up to 25 per cent, by some accounts — through pensions and funding for Gurkha hospitals, schools in Gurkha communities and other welfare programs. (India employs more Gurkhas than Britain, although they’re not as well paid.)
“The government would have to think pretty long about turning that down,” Mills said.
Such arguments, and the fact that 3 million other Nepalis work overseas because of the weak economy at home, appear to have silenced for now any move to block overseas Gurkha postings. But veterans groups fear the idea could resurface.
Some say the real reason the communists have floated the idea of a ban is because the former rebel fighters are jealous of Gurkha training, pay and professionalism.
Chandra Prakash Gajurel, a politburo member with the Unified Communist Party of Nepal, says working for foreigners in effect makes Gurkhas mercenaries.
“Yes, Nepal has unemployment, but joining someone else’s army isn’t a good solution,” he said. “And, no, the Communist Party does not envy Gurkhas.”
As Limbu wrapped up a story about fighters squabbling over canned rations in the Falklands, he reflected on returning home after so many years abroad.
“The problem with people like myself, we spend much of our life outside Nepal and when we return we don’t have the respect for things we once had,” he said. “If our government created jobs at home, we could talk about banning recruits from going overseas. But without making these preparations, they should stop talking about this idea.”

Culture of Nepal

Culture of Nepal

 

.Nepal culture

Nepal has several ancient pilgrimage sites. Each temple is attached to a legend or belief that glorifies the miraculous powers of its deity. Kathmandu Valley is home to the famous Pashupatinath Temple, Swayambhu Stupa and several other famous temples. Hundreds of famous temples are located in and around the Kathmandu Valley.

Some well-known pilgramage sites are: Barah Chhetra, Halesi Mahadev, Janakpur, Pathibhara, Tengboche in East Nepal; Manakaman, Gorkha, Lumbini, Muktinath, Gosainkunda, Tansen, Kathmandu Valley in Central Nepal; and Swargadwari, Khaptad Ashram in West Nepal.

Nepal is also the Gateway to Kailash Mansarovar, the mythical abode of Lord Shiva. Devotees from various parts of Nepal and India throng the temples during special festivals. Even though weak infrastructure renders some places hard to reach, efforts are being made on national level to develop and promote some popular sites.

Pilgrimage sites of Nepal like Muktinath and Gosainkunda make popular trekking destinations. Tours to these sites are encouraged for the novelty they provide in terms of nature and culture.

Food of Nepal

Nepalese are great foodies and their food varieties are hot, spicy and nutritious. Newari and Thakali cuisines are the original taste of Nepal. Otherwise, Nepalese style of cooking has been influenced by Indian and Tibetan cooking. Dal Bhat tarkari is the staple food of Nepal. Meat curries and monos are the hot favorites among the tourists.


Music of Nepal

The rhythm, beats, bounce of Nepali traditional folk and classical music is spiritual enough to sooth you and entertaining enough to cheer you. Music is associated with every event in Nepal, then be it birth, marriage, festivals or national events.



Nepal Dress
Daura-Suruwal, typically termed as 'Labeda-Suruwal' is the traditional Nepali dress. The dress has several religious beliefs identifying its designs and has therefore remained the same from the years. The Daura has eight strings that serves to tie itself up around the body. Eight is the lucky number in Nepali mythology.

Also, the Daura has five pleats or Kallis, signifying Pancha Buddha or Pancha Ratna. And the closed neck of the Daura signifies the snake around the Lord Shiva's neck. The Nepali dress for women is a cotton sari (Guniu), that is gaining great popularity in the fashion world.



Rituals

The main rituals followed in Nepal are naming ceremony, rice-feeding ceremony, tonsure ceremony, ceremony of giving Nepali Sari (Guniu), marriage ceremony and funeral rite.The rituals are still prevailing in society and are performed with zeal.. Different ritual experts have different roles in these rituals.


Cultural Sites

Astonishing enough, seven out of the ten world heritage sites in Nepal are termed cultural by UNESCO. Thus, the stupas, monasteries, temples and architecture are all representatives of the rich cultural heritage of Nepal. The following are the cultural world heritage sites of Nepal.

  • Kathmandu Durbar Square
  • Patan Durbar Square
  • Bhaktapur Durbar Square
  • Changu Narayan Temple
  • Swayambhunath Stupa
  • Pashupatinath Temple
  • Lumbini
  • Bouddhanath Stupa

. Needs of infrastrutures

Nepal is among the poorest countries in the world and currently ranks 157 out of 187 countries on the Human Development Index.
Poor reliability and access to power are the most serious problems arisiing in Nepal. Increasing access to electricity in a timely and cost-effective manner is one of the most significant development challenges facing Nepal today. 
The problem of  load shedding  during the dry season  is more concerned at this time .
