The Only Path Shown By Buddha
Buddha has taught many different things in his lifetime. His teachings depend on the audience and situations. However, if a novice curiously asks to summarise Buddha’s teachings in one word, what would it be? Certainly, it would be “mindfulness”.

Charismatic Charms Of Planets

Reviving Cultivation Of Finger Millet
Last year, villagers in the northern part of Shankhuwashabha district (Eastern Nepal) were enjoying the long summer days of June-July in their fields for plantations of millet (Nepali name: Kodo; biological name: Eleusine coracana). The farmers in their bigger squads from Namase, Rukuma, Chepuwa, Lingam, Chyamtang, Chumsur and Ridakh villages of Shankhuwashabha district were busy from dawn to dusk and considered the season as the season of eating grams to earn tonnes of grains for the whole year.

Schools and campuses are often closed as a part of summer vacation (locally called monsoon holiday); hence, they have more arms in the field.

It is said that a momentous day rarely comes but comes once in a century. There are a few momentous days in the political history of Nepal. One of such momentous days in Nepal is the declaration of the Republic Day. The day was May 28, 2008, or Jestha 15, 2064 BS. This was the day when the elected Constituent Assembly formally abolished the 240-year-old monarchy and declared Nepal a Federal Democratic Republic. This indeed heralded a new era in the history of Nepal.
Republicanism: Despite Progress, Challenges Remain
Nepal's shift from monarchy to republicanism was a watershed moment in the country's history. However, the republic's roots have not yet penetrated deep inside Nepali society, which was ruled for more than two centuries by Shah Monarchs, who began to lose the people's confidence as they placed self-interest above responsibility and ignored public opinion.
