A lighthouse stands tall and strong, shining its light to guide ships safely through darkness and storms. In the same way, creative writing can be like a lighthouse in our school—it helps us express our thoughts, share our ideas, and inspire others with our words. When one student writes a story, a poem, or even a simple paragraph, it can light the way for others to explore their own imagination. Just like a lighthouse encourages sailors to keep going, your writing can encourage your friends to be bold, think differently, and tell their own stories. So let your creativity shine bright, and be the light that inspires your fellow students to join you in the wonderful world of writing!

A Wonderful Trip to Lumbini

Aadhya Sipkhan

I spent my winter vacation having fun, learning about cultural values, and visiting memorable historical places. We started our journey from Kathmandu on Thursday. After celebrating Maghe Sankranti with my family, we traveled to Bhairahawa and then to Lumbini.I got the chance to visit Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Gautam Buddha, who taught peace, love, and kindness. Lumbini is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. I saw many beautiful monasteries built by different countries. We visited the Chinese, Thai, Japanese, French, German, Myanmar, Sri Lankan, and Korean monasteries. These monasteries show friendship among different countries and teach us about peace and harmony.We also visited the Maya Devi Temple, where Lord Buddha was born. My mother showed me the sacred marker stone that marks the exact birthplace of Buddha. I also saw the pond where Queen Maya Devi is believed to have taken a bath before Buddha was born. The Ashoka Pillar, built long ago by Emperor Ashoka, marks this holy place. The sacred garden was calm and peaceful, perfect for walking and praying.I really loved visiting Lumbini. It reminds us to be kind, peaceful, and respectful to everyone.

My experience of visiting Lumbini Temple

Arnesh Thapaliya

It all started early in the morning when my family and I were resting at my uncle’s house in Butwal. At 6:00 a.m., we began our journey to the Lumbini Temple. The road was empty, so my father drove at a speed of 95 km/hr for about 25 minutes. After some time, we reached Lumbini.Everyone was hungry, so we ate some aloo paratha. The main area of Lumbini was blocked, so we parked our car on the side of the road and hired a tempo (guide). He showed us many places. The first place we visited was the Never-Ending Fire. There was a massive crowd, but we still managed to see it and take some pictures.After that, we went to the Lumbini Temple. We prayed to God (Buddha) and saw his footsteps. That is the place where Buddha was born. Later, we visited an area where different countries had built their own structures, such as Germany, India, France, China, Korea, Switzerland, and Nepal. We first visited Nepal’s structure, which was none other than the Buddha Temple. Later, we found out that all the structures were related to Buddhism.We visited all the other places, and I felt that Switzerland’s structure was the best. After that, we ate some ice creams and headed back to where our car was parked. I recommend everyone to visit the Lumbini Temple because the structures show great hard work and creativity.

The Discovery of the Malla

Aadhya Shri Poudel

Name: Nepal: The Discovery of the Malla Author: Giuseppe Tucci Translated by: Lovett Edwards First published on: 1962 by E.P. Dutton & Co. Inc. Genre: Travel literature / Historical non-fiction (History) About the Author Giuseppe Tucci (1894–1984) was an Italian scholar and explorer famous for his studies of Buddhism, Tibet, and Himalayan cultures. He led several expeditions to Nepal and Tibet and wrote important books that introduced Asian religions and art to the Western world. Introduction to the Book Nepal: The Discovery of the Malla by Giuseppe Tucci is a scholarly, travel-based work that explores Nepal’s historical, cultural, and artistic heritage during the Malla period. The book is based on Tucci’s journeys through the Kathmandu Valley and surrounding areas, where he studied temples, inscriptions, manuscripts, and artworks. Through careful observation and research, Tucci highlights the contributions of the Malla rulers to Nepalese architecture, religion, art, and urban life. The book serves as a valuable resource for understanding how the Malla era influenced Nepal’s identity and preserved its rich cultural heritage. Plot The book documents Tucci’s extensive journeys across the Kathmandu Valley, including the ancient cities of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, and Patan, as well as their surrounding regions. During his travels, he examines temples, palaces, sculptures, inscriptions, manuscripts, and other cultural artifacts, linking them with the political, religious, and social history of the Malla era. Tucci offers insights into how the Malla kings promoted urban development, patronized art and architecture, and fostered both Hindu and Buddhist traditions, which collectively shaped Nepal’s unique cultural identity. Through his observations, he describes the layout of ancient cities, the symbolism in temple architecture, and the details of art and iconography. He also explores the role of religion in daily life and how political power and cultural expression were intertwined under the Mallas. The narrative unfolds as a gradual “discovery,” with Tucci connecting historical facts from monuments, inscriptions, and local traditions. He highlights not only the grandeur of Malla architecture but also the social and religious systems, the festivals, and the artistic creativity that flourished during their rule. The book portrays the Malla period as a golden age of cultural and artistic achievement, showing how its legacy continues to impact modern Nepalese society. Through this blend of travelogue and historical scholarship, Tucci provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of Nepal’s Malla heritage. Settings Geographical Setting: Kathmandu Valley – the main area of exploration, including the cities of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, and Patan. Surrounding regions, including smaller towns, temples, and villages preserving Malla-era architecture. Some areas near the Tibetan frontiers, showing cultural connections between Nepal and Tibet. Historical Setting: Focuses on the Malla period (12th–18th century CE), when the Malla kings influenced art, architecture, religion, and urban development. Tucci’s observations link his 1930s–1940s travels with historical remnants from the Malla era. Cultural Setting: Temples and religious sites – highlighting Hindu and Buddhist practices, rituals, festivals, and iconography. Palaces and royal courts – emphasizing Malla political history, architecture, and urban planning. Daily life – local traditions, crafts, and social systems observed during Tucci’s exploration. Atmosphere / Environmental Setting: Cities show rich cultural vibrancy, bustling streets, sacred spaces, and historic monuments. Tucci notes the artistic and spiritual ambiance of temples, stupas, and royal courtyards. Critical Analysis A Review and Critique of Giuseppe Tucci's "Nepal: The Discovery of the Malla". Giuseppe Tucci's "Nepal: The Discovery of the Malla" provides a comprehensive overview of the Malla Era (from about 1200 to 1650 A.D.). The book reviews the Malla Period (Approximately 9,000 Products) through travel accounts and scholarly research. The primary strength of Tucci's book is that it thoroughly catalogs temples, palaces, works of art, and inscribed artifacts demonstrating how the Malla kings influenced the cultural, religious, architectural, technological, and urban environments of Nepal. In addition to this, Tucci provides a wealth of information regarding Nepalese architecture, painting, and sculpture, but the author may exhibit a more Western-oriented viewpoint, focusing more on Nepal's elite artwork than on the daily lives of ordinary citizens. Nevertheless, this is an extremely valuable resource for people interested in the cultural history of Nepal, especially the Malla Period. Conclusion Nepal: The Discovery of the Malla by Giuseppe Tucci provides a thorough and insightful exploration of Nepal’s Malla period, highlighting the achievements of the Malla kings in art, architecture, religion, and urban culture. Through his travels and observations, Tucci preserves knowledge of Nepal’s rich cultural heritage and illustrates how the Malla era shaped the country’s identity. The Malla dynasty has an enduring influence on what we see today in Nepal - from the many amazing temples and palaces, to the numerous festivals and arts that are practiced today. Overall, it is an essential work for understanding Nepalese history and culture, combining scholarly research with vivid travel experiences to bring the Malla period alive for reader

Erika and King Tribhuvan: The Extraordinary True Story Of A Woman Who Went To Nepal Met A King And With Him Overthrew A Kingdom

Eshanee Manandhar

Introduction: “Erika and King Tribhuvan: The Extraordinary True Story Of A Woman Who Went To Nepal Met A King And With Him Overthrew A Kingdom” or shortly known as “Erika and King Tribhuvan” is a true autobiography of the author herself, Erika Leuchtag, consisting of her hindrance yet fulfilling journey as a physiotherapist , while helping the the king of the Nepal at that moment, King Tribhuvan Bir Bikram Shah Dev , to overcome the threatening Rana Regime.Plot: Erika was a German Physiotherapist, who was called into Nepal in 1949 AD for the treatment of the ill Queen of Nepal, King Tribhuvan’s wife. Despite arriving in Nepal just for work purposes, as time passed by, she got close to all the royal family members of Nepal , establishing a warm relationship between them. Among all the members, her relationship with King Tribhuvan got really strong, sensing comfort with him. However , not long after, Erika started noticing something unusual. In the country's ruling system, it was always seen that The King was rule-marker or the rule-changer. However, in Nepal , it was not so. King Tribhuvan was never seen working and instead she started realizing how the King and his family were kept in a situation called house-arrest. With the time she spent there, she realized that the reason why this “house arrest” was happening was because of the Rana Regime, causing the King to be powerless, contradicting the typical hierarchy system. She realized how the King was being controlled by the Rana people. Through her days there at the palace, she spent time there by teaching the members dance and other different languages. Erika was a smart one. With her relation with the Indian diplomats, she , once-and-for-all gave it her all, and adamantly helped King Tribhuvan to end the Rana Regime. She helped the King escape to the Indian Embassy which resulted in the King’s power to be restored again. Soon after the Rana Regina ended, Erika went back to her other places. She and the King still exchanged letters to each other symbolizing how strong their relationship was. However, King Tribhuvan had gotten a sickness and finally , when going to India, he ultimately had to face his demise. Erika was heartbroken hearing about his demise. To honor the King’s demise, the Nepali had organized a traditional way of funeral. In order to show respect to him, some Nepali even shaved their head, completely abandoned leather shoes etc showing how deeply they respected their King for his bravery by ending the Rana Regime which was not only haunting the King, but also the citizens too.Critical Analysis: “Erika and King Tribhuvan” is a really significant autobiography , showcasing the process of how Nepal ended the Rana Regime. The first strong point of this book is its first hand realistic information. Since the events are based in real life and the autobiography was about the author herself, the story in this book and the emotions portrayed in this book felt real, which enhanced the book reading experience by a lot. Second of all, the role of the King. As we all know, we perceive “King” to be the strongest ones, the ones who order and the ones who rule. However, due to the Rana Regime situation going on, The King here was utterly powerless. This really humanized King Tribhuvan’s character , adding depth to his character. Despite being powerless initially, through the bravery he had built up within the help of Erika, he was able to ultimately end the drastic Rana Regime. Repeating it again, this book is an autobiography, meaning all the events happening in this book are written by Erika Leuchtag herself. So some of the events or the plot of this book might seem biased due to it being written through her own experience or her own point of view. But, this also makes the book more realistic . Additionally, the reader of the book needs to have a bit of a background of the Nepali political system. Not knowing a single thing about the system can lead to confusion throughout this book as this book is a Nepali political-historical system centered book.Recommendation: I would recommend this book to readers who are interested in the political or the historical centered books. This book feels like a different one, since it helps us to know what is actually happening inside the doors of the magnificent palace which we can only look through from outside. It gives us this new perspective of the role of the Kings and inside powers, we might have never really expected of . In my opinion, the story was really fascinating, consisting of truth and reality. Thus,with the emotional depth, the sense of courage and historical significance this book has provided to us, I would really love to recommend this book.

नयाँ समाजको परिकल्पना

Sonu Shrestha

सामान्य रूपमा समाज भन्नाले मानिसको समूहलाई बुझिन्छ तर त्यति मात्र नभएर समाज भनेको भिन्न सोच, विचार तथा भिन्नै व्यवहार भएका मानिसहरूको घर हो। यिनै विचारको भिन्नताले नै समाजमा राम्रा तथा नराम्रा पक्षहरूको उत्पत्ति गराउँछ। मानिस सामाजिक प्राणी भएकोले उसलाई बाँच्नको लागि समाज चाहिन्छ, उसले आफ्ना आवश्यकताहरू समाजबाटै परिपूर्ति गर्छ। मानिसका तिनै आवश्यकताभित्र परम्परा र संस्कृतिहरू पनि पर्छन्।वर्तमान समय प्रविधिको समय हो। हाम्रो समाजले आफ्नो सुरुवाती अवस्थाबाट धेरै फड्को मारेर एउटा नयाँ समाजको रूप लिइसकेको छ। हाम्रो समाजमा भिन्न भिन्न भाषा, जातजाति, धर्मका मानिसहरूको बसोबास छ।‌ जसकारण भिन्न भिन्न संस्कृतिहरू पनि छन्। यिनै संस्कृतिको साथ मानवजीवन अघि बढिरहेको छ। हाम्रो संस्कृति मुख्यतया हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूबाट हस्तान्तरण हुँदै आएका छन्। जसले हाम्रो परम्परालाई झल्काउँछन् तर नयाँ युगसँगै नयाँ संस्कृतिको जन्म भएको छ जसले आफू सँगसँगैका विकृतिहरूको पनि उदय गराएको छ। म नेपाली समाजमा बस्छु। मलाई मेरो नेपाली संस्कृति र परम्परा अति प्रिय छ। अहिलेको सन्दर्भमा हेर्ने हो भने मसँगैका मेरा साथीहरू तथा युवावर्गहरू भने हाम्रा यी संस्कृतिबाट टाढिँदै विदेशी संस्कृतिलाई अपनाउदै गइरहेका छन्। नेपाली संस्कृति नै हामी नेपालीको पहिचान हो । त्यसैले म चाहन्छु जसरी हाम्रा पुर्खाहरूबाट धेरै अगाडिदेखि हाम्रा संस्कृतिहरू अघि बढ्दै आइरहेका छन्, त्यसरी नै भोलिका दिनहरूमा पनि हाम्रा यिनै सुन्दर संस्कृतिका साथै आफ्नो विशेषता कायम गरिरहन पाऊन्। समयसँगै परिवर्तन त भइरहन्छन् । विदेशी संस्कृतिलाई केही हदसम्म स्वीकार्नुमा कुनै आपत्ति हुँदैन। विदेशी संस्कृतिको पनि आफ्नै विशेषता छन्। ती संस्कृतिले हामीलाई मनोरञ्जन पनि प्रदान गरेका छन् । त्यसैले मैले कल्पना गरे अनुसार मेरो समाजमा परिवर्तन होस् तर हाम्रा परम्पराहरूको लोप नभइकन विश्वका अरू विभिन्न संस्कृतिसँगै अघि बढ्दै मेरो समाज एउटा नयाँ तर सुन्दर समाज नै बनिरहोस्।केवल विदेशी संस्कृति मात्र होइन हाम्रा परम्परागत संस्कृति पनि विकृतिको रुपमा देखिएका छन्। जसले नेपाली समाजको सुन्दरता र शान्तिलाई भङ्ग गरिदिएको छ। निकै पहिलेदेखि चलिआएको छाउपडी प्रथा, लैङ्गिक तथा जातीय विभेद जुनको छत्रछायाबाट मेरो समाज अझै निस्किसकेको छैन। म सधैँ यही सोचिरहन्छु कि कहिले मेरो समाज एउटा विकृतिरहित समाज होला, कहिले मेरो समाजको हरेक मानिसको मनमस्तिष्कबाट यो विभेदको भावना हट्ला र एकताको सूत्रबाट नयाँ र शुद्ध विचार, धारणाको साथ नयाँ समाजको निर्माणतर्फ अघि बढ्ला।मेरो समाजको मुहार फेर्नका लागि यतिमात्रै नभएर नयाँ युग सँगसँगै आएको विसङ्गतिहरू विरुद्ध पनि लड्न आवश्यक छ। कलियुगको परिचय दिँदै लागुपदार्थको प्रयोग जस्ता अवैध गतिविधिले पनि मेरो समाजलाई खोक्रो बनाई रहेको छ। विशेष गरी युवा वर्गमा फैलिएको यो विसङ्गतिले समाजको भविष्यलाई अन्धकारतर्फ डोर्याउदै छ। जसकारण म चाहन्छु अबका युवाहरूको कदम यस अन्धकार तर्फ नलागोस् , यो विसङ्गतिले व्याप्त युवाहरूलाई पनि यसबाट पछि हट्ने चेत र जागर आओस्। यिनै युवाहरूको असल सोच र क्रान्तिकारी हातबाट निर्मित नयाँ र सभ्य समाजकाे स्वरुप हेर्न म आतुर छु। त्यसैगरी मैले अगाडि उल्लेख गरे झैँ यो युग प्रविधिको युग हो। प्रविधिले मानव जीवनमा निकै महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका खेलिरहेको छ। हाल पूरा विश्व नै प्रविधिको गतिसँगै दौँडिरहेको छ। प्रविधि साच्चिकै अद्भुत छ।म चाहन्छु मेरो समाज पनि यो प्रविधि र विकासको दौडानमा सँगसँगै लाग्न सकोस्। यसको लागि हाम्रो समाजको भविष्यको रुपमा रहेको युवाहरूले नै आफ्नो जागर र बौद्धिक क्षमता पोख्न जरुरी छ। साथै जुनसुकै विकासको लागि समाजको हरेक सदस्यले साथ र हात बढाउन आवश्यक छ। म पनि मेरो समाजको भविष्य हुँ र यसका लागि म पनि योगदान दिन चाहन्छु। मेरो समाजको मुहार फेर्न पनि अग्रसर हुन चाहन्छु।यसरी विकासको गति अघि बढाउदै, समाजका विकृति, विसङ्गतिहरू हटाइ हाम्रो आफ्नै मौलिक संस्कृतिमा रमाएको एक नयाँ, सुन्दर र सभ्य समाजको परिकल्पनामा म डुबिरहेकी छु।

म मेरो परिवारसँग घुम्न जान्छु । हामी धेरै जस्तो शनिबार घुम्न जान्छौँ । हामी दसैँको समयमा नगरकोट गएका थियौँ । म मेरो परिवारसँग किनमेल गर्न जान्छु । म कहिलेकाहीँ भाटभटेनी जान्छु । कहिलेकाहीँ आइसक्रिम पनि खान्छु । मलाई किनमेल गर्न एकदमै मन पर्छ। मलाई खेलौना र लुगा किन्न मन पर्छ । म मेरो परिवारसँग बसेर टिभी हेर्छु । हामी सबैजना समाचार हेर्छौं । कहिलेकाहीँ मेरी बहिनी कार्टुन हेर्छे । मेरो बाबाले खेलकुद हेर्नुहुन्छ । हामी मिलेर खाना खान्छौँ । खाना खाँदै हामी मिठा मिठा गफ पनि गर्छौं । हामी कहिलेकाहीँ घरमा सबैजना मिलेर मःम पकाएर पनि खान्छाैँ । मलाई मःम खान मन पर्छ। म मेरो परिवारसँग मिलेर खेल्छु। म मेरो दाइसँग खेल्छु । मलाई लुकामारी खेल्न मन पर्छ । मलाई मेरो बाबासँग क्यारमबाेर्ड खेल्न मन पर्छ । Encouragement: Sindhu Poudel

Paper Cup Telephone

Adity Vaidya

A telephone is a useful device. It helps us communicate with people who are near or far. I also invented one means of communication called a paper cup telephone. I took two paper cups and one long string. Two people can use it at the same time.Do you know why I made this telephone? The reason is that my brother wanted to talk to his friend on the phone while watching TV together. Then I thought of inventing something that would be useful and fun. My brother was very excited about the paper cup telephone.First, we took two paper cups. Then we made a tiny hole in the middle of each cup. We put the string through the holes. After that, he was very happy. We played with our telephone for three hours.

Friendship

Kamal Thapa Magar

“Walking with a friend in dark is better than walking alone in the light”.Friendship is a special bond between two or more than two people. I think without friendship life is boring because friends bring happiness and smile on our face. We all have friends. Friendship is a relationship of mutual affection between people. We cannot live our entire life all by ourselves. We need a faithful relationship and happy living. And these two are achieved only by true friendship. Friendship has no limit on age, sex, and position. Friendship can be developed between persons having different passions, emotions or sentiments.

Journal On Zoo Visit

Aashik Singh Danwar

It was Sunday when we, the students of grade 10 went to the zoo with our respective teacher, Mr. Kuldeep Gupta. We reached the zoo at 10:30 am. We rested there for a while and headed inside. We saw different animals and birds. We got a chance to gather information about animals such as monkeys, tigers, elephants, bears, and birds such as parrots, eagles, vultures and so on. We took a short break after walking and exploring. We had our lunch and started exploring more. We got to know about reptiles as well. We didn’t leave a place to roam around. We had lots of fun. After we finished gathering enough information, we went for boating. It was one of the memorable moment of my life. I would like to heartily thank my teachers who gave us the opportunity to make beautiful memories with friends and help us explore different birds and animals. We wish to have more fruitful field visits like this.
