जात्रा र म
- Pratik Dangol - 27009, Grade ... 20 July, 2022

सबैभन्दा पहिले जात्राका  बारे कुरामा गर्नुपर्दा, जात्रालाई हामी  नेवारी पर्व वा रथ यात्रा वा  कार्निभल भनेर बुझ्छौँ । काठमाडौंँ  उपत्यकामा धेरै जात्राहरू मनाइन्छन् । जस्तै बुंगा द्यः जात्रा, पाहाचरे जात्रा, गाई जात्रा, इन्द्र जात्रा, आदि काठमाडौँ उपत्यकामा मनाइन्छ्न । म धेरै जसो सहभागी हुने जात्रा भनेको मछती जात्रा, गाई जात्रा, रोपाइ जात्रा, खड्के जात्रा, पाहाचरे जात्रा, आदि हुन् ।

नेवार भएर जात्रामा त सहभागी हुनु नै पर्‍याे । आफ्नो संस्कृति र परम्परालाई अघि त बढाउनु परिहाल्यो। जात्राको बेला नै हो जब म आफ्नो सबै काम भुलेर जात्रामा मग्न हुन्छु। जात्राको बेला म साथीहरूसँग रमाइलो गर्न नै व्यस्त हुन्छु ।   यहाँ हामी ३ दिन पाचरे जात्रा मनाउछौँ ।  जहाँ म दिन रात धेरै जसो घर बाहिर रथ सँगै हुन्छ । यो मेरो जात्रा प्रति उत्साह र रमाइलो गरेकोले गर्दा हो । पाचरे जात्रामा मात्र होइन अन्य धेरै जात्रा जस्तै गाईजात्रा, रोपाइ जात्रा, नवदुर्गा जात्रा, त्रीशुलजात्रा, आदिमा नि धेरै रमाउँछु ।  धेरै जसो जात्रा सँगै हुन्छु ।  म रमाइलो गर्नुको कारण दिन दिनैका समस्याहरू भुल्नु पनि हो । यसले मलाई उर्जाशील बनाउन मदत गर्छ। जात्राहरूमा म सय प्रतिशत उपस्थित हुन्छु ।  जहाँ म आफ्ना ठुला बडालाई मदत गर्छु र नयाँ नयाँ कुरा सिक्छु  । किनभने भविष्यमा हामीले नै हाम्रा परम्पराहरू अगाडि बढाउनुपर्छ किनभने यो हाम्रो जातको गौरवको कुरो हो । म र मेरो जात्राप्रतिको सहभागिको उदाहरण मेरो आफ्नै आमा बुबा र अरू आफन्तहरू हुन । उहाँहरूले भन्नुहुन्छ कि म सानो हुँदा नि रात भरि जागेर भए पनि जात्रा हेर्थेँ रे। धिमे बाजा सुन्यो कि बाहिर निस्किन्थे रे। म सानो हुँदा त्यस्तो थेिए भने अहिले कस्तो हुँला। मेरो जात्रा प्रतिको पागल पनले गर्दा एक पटक  मैले धेरै नराम्रो परीक्षा पनि दिएको थिएँ।

यसले  म कति र कसरी जात्राप्रति पागल छु भनेर बताउँछ। जात्राले मलाई मेरा सबै समस्या र  पीडाहरू भुल्न मदत गर्छ । त्यही भएर  म नेवा समुदायबाट भएर सबै जात्राहरूमा उपस्थित हुन्छु ।

How Can Nepal Be A Developed Country?
- Prasiddha Shrestha - 28008, G ... 20 July, 2022

Nepal is on the list of one of the least developed countries (LDC). We mainly blame the government for this.The government of Nepal is also one of the reasons that Nepal is lacking in its developmental activities.But we as citizens can also help in the development of our country.The UN says that Nepal will leave the category of least developed country by 2026 A.D. This is very good for our country.The rate of development in Nepal is ok but according to the population of the country the rate of development is not good enough.
What is the development of a country? When a country is going up the ladder of economic performance and living standards, then it is called the development of a country. This development is the main reason that the country keeps progressing. A developed country has many characteristics, like high per capita income, low rate of poverty, high living standard, low rate of unemployment etc. All of the mentioned points affect the condition of the country and the people in the country.
Nepal is an agricultural country. Almost 25% of our economy comes from agricultural occupations and activities. So, in a way, agricultural activities are very beneficial for us.Thus, we can continue this activity. Almost 65% of the population are involved in agricultural activities.This activity is mainly done in villages and rural areas of Nepal.This activity provides a slow rate of development of the country but is still profitable. If Nepal is able to switch to a more industrialised economy, then development will increase at a very large rate.
The government should provide more facilities for the citizens. The government should also focus on economically beneficial activities. Also, the government of Nepal is mainly focusing on the development of the cities or developed areas.The government is not focusing on the development of the rural areas. It should give equal attention towards the development of all the areas of Nepal. The development of only one or two areas does not develop a whole country.
The citizens of Nepal can also help by paying taxes. The money paid by us goes to the developmental activities of the nation. The taxes are different according to the salary of the individual. It is just a fixed percent of the individual's salary. Taxes are the most effective thing a citizen can do or pay to help the country develop. The government should also make rules that everyone must pay taxes.

Nepal has maintained a good relationship with all of these countries. These countries have helped in the development of Nepal by importing and exporting goods. Nepal is also a part of SAARC and the UN. It is very beneficial to us that Nepal is a part of these organizations.

Our country can develop by selling or exporting energy and fossil fuel, especially hydroelectricity and solar energy.Our country has the necessary materials and items needed to produce this energy. Our country is currently selling power to India at a small rate and improving this rate of selling power. Nepal can build solar power factories in sunny areas.

Nepal is the 2nd largest country by water sources. The amount of hydroelectricity that can be produced by Nepal will be too much for the countries of needs. So, Nepal can even join power lines to other countries and sell the hydroelectricity to other countries.The cost of connecting the wires will be high but still Nepal can make lots of profits of it. Nepal has not  reached its full potential in the production of hydroelectricity. The government of Nepal is not focusing on this topic. Nepal has developed less than 1.2 GW of hydropower. This amount is much smaller and the total amount that can be produced. About 88% of the potential in the production of hydroelectricity has not been reached.

But, Nepal has a larger potential in the production of solar energy. The total potential for solar energy in Nepal is 50,000 terawatt-hours per year. It is 100 times larger than Nepal's hydro energy production and 7,000 times larger than Nepal's current electricity consumption. The proper production of solar energy can solve almost all the electrical problems in Nepal.

The tourism industry is the largest industry in Nepal. The tourism industry has seen some massive changes over the past years. Nepal is a beautiful country but Nepal is still 154th in tourism. The Nepali government has improved this sector. The government of Nepal should build better buildings. We should, preserve the temples, monasteries, because those are the major attractions and just preserve the national heritage of our country. The tourists are attracted to our country, seeing the rich history and culture, so we must preserve it. We also need to make a better source of transportation. The government of Nepal can also make various other things such as boating, paragliding etc. The government also needs to built more international airport. Transportation system should be upgraded and not only for the airports but the roads should also be improved outside of Kathmandu .The government of Nepal is mainly focusing on Kathmandu valley and still it is not as developed as the capital of other countries. So the Government of Nepal should  also work towards the development of roads and airport outside of Kathmandu valley. 
Nepal has a very high rate of imports. We import basically everything. We import food ,energy ,medicines etc. We import at such a high rate that. If we do not  receive imports, then we will die. We are dependent on other countries. We do not produce many items, but we use the items produced. Nepal has a higher rate of import than export. Export is a major reason for the development of a country. Nepal is importing way more than exporting. Nepal needs to focus on the production of items so we can start importing at a higher percentage.

Now ,from a geographical point of view,  Nepal is a mountainous country, so transportation of items can be very hard. Nepal is just covered by mountains and hills. Nepal is a landlocked country, so we do not have access to the seas and oceans. Hence, Nepal can not import and export via the seas and oceans.

Nepal also has access to lots of natural resources.We have not been able to use these natural resources completely. If we use the natural resources properly, we do not have to use imported energy, we can get fresh fruits and vegetables of our own. We are not utilising natural resources, instead we are polluting them. We used to have clean rivers, lakes and other water sources. Now the same rivers and lakes are dirty.The rivers were crystal clear but now they are black and brown because of the pollution and polluted items in the rivers.

Therefore, to develop our country, firstly there should be visionary leaders, a proper budget should be there for the development of each field, proper transport facilities, proper utilisation  and conservation of natural resources, proper care and conservation of historical things and world heritage sites to make our country a tourist spot and the most importantly, quality education  and good employment opportunities should be given to the youth to stop young Nepelese to leave our country.

नारायणहिटी दरबार
- Aarjan Khadka - 29003, Grade ... 20 July, 2022

नारायणहिटी दरबार नेपालको एक सार्वजनिक सङ्ग्रहालय हो जुन केसर महलको पूर्व र ठमेलको छेउमा अवस्थित छ। यो नेपालको एउटा संरचना थियो जहाँ राजपरिवारका अधिकृत वा राजपरिवारबाट आमन्त्रित व्यक्तिहरू बाहेक अरू कसैले प्रवेश गर्न पाउँदैनन् थिए। तर सन् २००८ मा शाह राजतन्त्रको अन्त्य भयो र नारायणहिटी दरबारका ढोकाहरू सन् २००९ फेब्रुअरीमा सर्वसाधारणका लागि खोलियो।

यो अमेरिकी वास्तुकार बेन्जामिन पोल्कद्वारा निर्माण गरिएको थियो। ५२ कोठामध्ये अहिले १९ वटा मात्र सर्वसाधारणका लागि खुला छन्।‘नारायणहिटी’ नाम दुई शब्द ‘नारायण’ र ‘हिटी’ मिलेर बनेको हो । नारायण भन्नाले हिन्दू देवता विष्णु हुन्, जसको मन्दिर दरबारको अगाडि छ र नेवार भाषामा हिटीको अर्थ ढुङ्गे धारा हो, जुन दरबारको मुख्य प्रवेशद्वारको पूर्वमा पर्छ। शाही मुकुट रत्नहरू अक्टोबर २०१८मा प्रदर्शनमा राखिएको थियो। शाही दरबार धेरै पूर्व राजा र रानीहरूको घर रहेको छ​। नारायणहिटी दरबारमा ठ्याक्कै ५२ वटा कोठा छन् जसलाई सदन भनिन्छ र नेपालको ७५ जिल्लाको नामबाट यसको नाम राखिएको छ। दरबारको भित्री भाग पुरानो भिक्टोरियन शैलीमा आधारित छ ।

कलाकार अमर चित्रकारद्वारा बनाइएको महेन्द्र र राजा वीरेन्द्र र शाह सम्राटहरूको जीवन आकारको चित्रहरू सिँढीहरूमा पाउन सकिन्छ​। नारायणहिटी दरबार दसैँको समयमा सर्वसाधारणका लागि खुला गरिएको थियो जहाँ पूर्वराजाहरूले सरकारी अधिकारीहरू, उच्च तहका अधिकारीहरू र सर्वसाधारणलाई टीका लगाइदिएका थिए।

- Sayuri Shrestha - 28017, Grad ... 19 July, 2022

(डाेल्मा केही समयका लागि बाटाेमा हिडेकी छन् । पारि वनमा उनले डडेलाे लागेकाे देख्छिन् । त्यसै समयमा डाेल्मासँग पनि भेट हुन्छ । अनि उनीहरूकाे कुराकानी सुरु हुन्छ ।)

डोल्मा : नमस्ते माया तिमीलाई कस्तो छ ?

माया : नमस्ते डोल्मा म ठिक छु तिमीलाई कस्तो छ ?  तिम्रो परिवार कस्तो छ ?

डोल्मा : ओहो ! म खुसी छु। मेरो परिवार पनि ठिकै छन् । हेर पारि पाखाम कसले आगाे लगाएकाे हाे ?

माया:  हाे है किनहाेला त्यसरी डडेलाे लगाएकाे ?  तिमीले वन संरक्षणको बारेमा भर्खरैको समाचार सुनेकी छौ ?

डोल्मा: हो मैले यसको बारेमा सुनेकी  छु । मानिसहरूले आफ्नै प्रयोगको लागि वन्यजन्तुलाई नष्ट गरिरहेका छन् भन्ने सुनेर म विचलित भएँ ।

माया: हो म पनि यो कुरा सुनेर धेरै निरस थिएँ, मेरो विद्यालयले मलाई यस अवस्थाको बारेमा कुरा गर्नको लागि एउटा कार्यक्रमको आयोजना गरेकाे छ, हाम्रा प्राकृतिक स्रोतहरूलाई कसरी बचाउने र यसलाई हाम्रो भविष्यको लागि कसरी जोगाउन सकिन्छ भनेर ।

डोल्मा : हो ! मसँग केही विचारहरू छन् जुन हामीले प्राकृतिक स्रोतहरू बचत गर्न दैनिक प्रयोग गर्न सक्छौँ ।

माया: साँच्चै! तिनीहरू के हुन्, म तिमीबाट सुन्न चाहन्छु ।

डोल्मा: ठिक छ, हामीले हाम्रा प्राकृतिक स्रोतहरूबाट  धरै कुराको कम उत्पादनहरू उपभोग गर्नुपर्छ । हामीले यसको माग रोक्नुपर्छ ताकि हामी हाम्रा स्रोतहरू बचत गर्न सक्छौँ। हामीले हाम्रो वातावरणको राम्रोको लागि वस्तुहरू कसरी पुनः प्रयोग गर्न सकिन्छ भनेर सिक्नुपर्छ र प्रायः हामीले धेरै रूखहरू रोप्नुपर्छ र हाम्रो वरपर भइरहेको अवस्थाको  बारेमा  मानिसहरूलाई सचेत गराउनुपर्छ ।

माया: वाह! यी त साँच्चै राम्रा चीजहरू हुन् जुन हामीले वन र प्राकृतिक स्रोतहरूको संरक्षण रोक्न सक्छौँ। धन्यवाद म यी  काम गर्नेछु र मानिसहरूलाई यसको बारेमा बताउनेछु।

डोल्मा: म यो कुरा  सुनेर खुसी छु। फेरि  भेटौँला।
मायाः हुन्छ , अब बिदा हाऔँ है । 
(दुवैजना आ-आफ्ना गन्तव्यतिर लाग्छन् ।

Listening To The Spirits
- Aayotrie Chaudhary - 27019, G ... 15 July, 2022

Once I saw the place I knew that that would be the perfect place to put my cafe. It was near a forest, a place where many people of the small town would say that the spirits of the dead would stop by. Many called me crazy or reckless for wanting to put my cafe there but the place was perfect, in the winter it looked like a cute cottage shimmering snow and I planned to plant a cherry blossom tree that would looked so lovely during the spring, in fall it would be a bit harder to sweep the leaves that fall off the tree branches but it would still be so nice and in summer the meadows nearby would fully blossom with wild flowers of all different colors, some orange, some white and some pink as well as many other shades and hues of florals. The spot was absolutely perfect in every way, however all the chatter from the people kept haunting my head on the day of the grand opening and that wasn't the only haunting that would happen that day. In fact another haunting came just that night, not by living people though, but by ones who've already passed on to the afterlife.

It's been a few years now and the cafe is blooming as fast as the dozens of flowers are in spring. People even call it a great tourist area to go to when you visit our small, quaint town. I also have many regulars that I'm fond of that live in the small town too. Out of all the guests that visit my cafe my favorites are probably the sweet, enchanting spirits at night.This is also the reason I usually take the night shift and let my employees take day shifts, that I personally always use the excuses ' I'm a night owl' or ' I love looking at the shimmering stars and constellations glowing in the dark night sky' . The spirits are actually really nice though they also really love over sharing, I don't mind though, I like listening to their previous lives before they move on to the great beyond, of course I'm always sad when they have to leave. Listening to the spirits also has helped me in many ways, for one, listening to the deaths of the spirits has helped me overcome the fear of myself passing. I also have learned how to do many other fun tasks or hobbies like baking, chess and even Chinese checkers. So in all I guess I was right, this place really was the perfect spot for me to set up my cafe.

Death Is Inevitable
- Samyam Rai - 29028, Grade VI ... 15 July, 2022

Death, nobody has managed to escape its grip so far. Even the giants like Titanoboa, Megalodon
and Dinosaurs succumbed to it. Humans have managed to cheat death but not entirely but surely
to some extent. Yes, with the advancement in the healthcare facilities, improvement in the
standard of living, and better safety measures , the average life expectancy around the world in
the last two centuries have increased from less than 30 years to over 72 years. And according to
research can be extended even further in the coming times. That makes us believe that we
could even achieve immortality at some point in time. So, if everyone around us lives forever
then in that case the first thing to tackle will be the ever growing population. As no one is
departing and babies continue to be born. Soon it will become big issue leading to scarcity of
food and other resources and, as it will be next it impossible to meet the growing demands, there
will be an increase in conflict amongst us. Not only that to provide shelter for so many of us,
Deforestation will increase, leading to the extinction of many animals. Apart from the pressure
on the environment, There will be tremendous stress on our memories most of have difficulty
remembering. The next big hurdle living forever will be evolution. As we know according to
Darwin’s theory of evolution, years ago, humans looked way different from what we are today.
On the good site we could stay with are loved ones from a longer time but unfortunately, life will
be painful. There is only one species that has been called biologically immortal, that is jelly fish.
The adult jellyfish transforms itself through transdifferentiation which means adult jelly fish can
transform into a newborn jellyfish.
