The Problem of HIV/Aids in Nepal

-
HIV and Aids is the most dangerous disease all over the world in these days. And yes Nepal is also highly affected country of the south Asia. Recently news of a Dhaulagiri Zone, one of the west part of Nepal; is published in Kantipur National Daily.

Two hundred eighty (280) HIV positives are there in this area. And only seventy of them have exposed as affected person. Other affected 20 are already died (Tuesday, 23rd September, 2008). This is just an example of one Zone, Nepal's other areas are also highly affected by this disease. This is increasing day by day due to the lack of enough awareness programs.

Nepali HIV positive doesn't expose them due to the various reasons. They afraid of the community and relatives, if they come to know then will be excommunicated from the community and will be tragically misbehaved. Global Fund has closed it's funding to Nepal which used to give for the HIV awareness program. They claim that the fund was not used properly, so they won't fund any more.

Now, it's more challenging; in one hand, the fund is not being used properly, in other hand, the fund is being deducted. What will be the future consequences? Have you ever thought!!!

आत्मिक बाबू छोराको प्रचार अबाइबलीय र पैसाको निम्ति गरिने प्रचार हो आत्मिकी बाबू र छोराको चित्र बाइबलमा दिइएको शक्तिशाली र अर्थपूर्ण चित्र हो । यो सामान्य र ख्याल ठट्टाको शिक्षा होइन । आजका केही उदाउँदा प्रचारकहरुले यो बाइबलीय रहस्यलाई अनर्थ लगाएर विश्वासीहरुमा भ्रम छर्ने र मानिसहरुलाई बहकाउने खेलमा लागेका देखिन्छन् । यदि आत्मिकी बाबू र छोराको सम्बन्धलाई हामीले बुझ्यौं भने यो ठूलो बाइबलीय सत्यता पनि हो । यदि यसलाई शारीरिक फाइदाको निम्ति प्रयोग गरियो भने यो दण्डनीय झूठो शिक्षा हुन्छ । पछिल्लो दिनमा सम्पन्नतावादी शिक्षाको प्रचार गर्नेहरुले यो भ्रमपूर्ण शिक्षाको प्रचार गरिरहेका छन् । सफलता, सम्पन्नता, आषिश तथा अभिषेकको प्रतिज्ञा र प्रचार गर्नेहरुले यस्तो आत्मिकी पिताको प्रचार गरिरहेका छन् । उनीहरुको शिक्षा अनुसार आशिष पाउन, सफल हुन र अभिषेक पाउन आत्मिकी बाबूको सहायता चाहिन्छ । यसरी उनीहरुले येशूको पर्याप्ततालाई अस्वीकार गरेर मानविय मध्यस्थको रुपमा आफुलाई प्रचार गरिरहेका छन् । क्रमशः शामूएल तामाङ, पावल क्षेत्री र केशव आचार्य सम्पन्नता र धनसम्पत्तिको निम्ति यो प्रचार लोकप्रिय भइरह...

Smoking and Youth in Nepal

Introduction: I have been to west part of Nepal few months before and I saw a tragic picture. I was just returning from Church on Saturday and entered to a restaurant to have a cup of tea with a plate of snacks. When I entered the restaurant, a group of school students (kids) were enjoying cigarettes. It was very difficult for me go ahead because of the smoke. And that challenged me to think for a while and I decided to write some thing on it… Six years before, when I was a school student almost 15% of my class mates used to smoke in toilet during the break time. And, according to a report nearly a quarter of high school students in the U.S. smoke cigarettes.I don't think its much different in Nepali context. Smoking and the Problem: Taking some tobacco in a small pipe is known as 'Smoking', in Nepali context. Most of the young (Teens and School Students), learns smoking from their parents in Nepal. Father of the home smokes as they come to home from out ...

प्रेमनारायण भट्टराई सन् १५१७ अक्टूबर ३१ तरिकका दिन यूरोप महादेशमा रोमन क्याथोलिक मण्डली भित्र सुरु भएको सुधारवादी अभियान (आन्दोलन) अर्थात् प्रोटेस्टेन्ट रिफर्मेशनको आज सन् २०१७ अक्टूबर ३१ तरिकका दिन ठीक ५ सय वर्ष पुरा भएको छ । मार्टिन लुथर नाम गरेका एक जना अगस्टेनियन ख्रीष्टियन क्याथोलिक साधुले जर्मनी स्थित वीटनवर्ग च्यापल (चर्च)को मुख्य ढोकामा ९५ वटा बुँदामा तत्कालिन रोमन क्याथोलिक मण्डलीको सैद्धान्तिक कमजोरी र अबाइबलीय अभ्यासगत व्यवहारको विषयमा असहमतीका बुँदाहरु टाँसेपछि यो आन्दोलन पुरै युरोपभरी नै फैलियो । यद्यपी सुधारवादी आवाज यस अघि पनि निरन्तर उठेका थिए र त्यसलाई दबाईंदै आएको थियो । तत्कालिन परिवेशमा रोमन क्याथोलिक मण्डलीको विरुद्धमा आवाज उठाउनु मृत्युसँग नडराउनु झैं थियो । यो सुधारवादी आन्दोलनको ५ यसौं वर्षको परिवेशमा केही एतिहाँसिक तथ्यहरु र यसका आजको उपयोगिताको विषयमा केही कुराहरुको चर्चा गरौं । सुधारवादी आन्दोलन अर्थात् प्रोटेस्टेन्ट रिफर्मेशन मूलत पापल अर्थात् मण्डलीमा पोपको अधिनायक शासन वा रोमन क्याथोलिक मण्डलीको विश्वासीहरु माथि चरम सासनको विरुद्धमा थियो । तर ...
