छेत्री लुगा

Jebish Baruwal

छेत्री लुगाछेत्री महिलाहरू परम्परागत रूपमा साडी चोलो र पटुका लगाउँछन्। छेत्री पुरुषहरूले दौरा सुरुवाल कमिज र टोपी लगाउने चलन छ। छेत्री लुगामा साधारणतया परम्परागत नेपाली पहिचान झल्किन्छ। विशेष पर्व र चाडपर्वमा उनीहरूले परम्परागत भेषभूषा विशेषरूपमा लगाउँछन्। समयसँगै छेत्री समुदायमा पनि लुगा लगाउने शैलीमा केही आधुनिकता आएको छ तर मौलिकता अझै पनि कायम छ।

मेरो एक दिनको दैनिकी

Ojaswi Kunwar

मेरो एक दिनको दैनिकीमिति २०८३ / १ / १० गते बिहीबार म बिहान ६ बजे उठेँ। पानी पिएँ अनि शौचालय गएँ। त्यसपछि खाजा खाएँ । मैले एकछिन खेलेँ । ९ बजे मैले लुगा फेरेर मेरा मामु, बाबा र बहिनीसँग ट्याक्सीमा चढेँ । त्यसपछि बाटोमा हामीले गीत गायौँ । एक घण्टापछि हामी साँखु पुग्यौँ । त्यहाँको रिसोर्टमा ठुलो चौर थियो । त्यहाँ धेरै सुन्दर फूलहरू थिए । थरीथरीका फूल देखेर हामी धेरै खुसी भयौँ । हामी त्यहाँको बगैँचामा डुल्यौँ । सबैले खाना खायौँ र फोटो खिच्यौँ । चौरमा म र बहिनी खेल्यौँ । त्यसपछि हामी ट्याक्सी चढेर सालीनदी पुग्यौँ। त्यहाँ पनि वरिपरि डुल्यौँ र बेलुका हामी घरमा पुगेपछि खाना खाएर आराम गर्‍याैँ । राति थकाइ लागेकोले म छिटै ९:३० बजे सुतेँ। त्यो दिन मलाई धेरै रमाइलो भयो।

My Furry Friend

Ian Dhungana Mainali

My Furry FriendI have furry friends at home. Unlike many people, I prefer cats over dogs, and I have two cats. Cats often give birth to many kittens because many do not survive due to illness or being hunted. My cat gave birth to about fifteen kittens, but sadly, only one survived. Every time she lost one of her kittens, she would be in distress, often tearing up and hissing at us.We always feed both of our cats nutritious meals. Sometimes we give them chicken and rice, and other times just chicken. Occasionally, one of them runs out of the house, and we have to go looking for her, which is never easy or fun.Every day with my cats is a good day. Most of the time, we are playing and enjoying each other’s company. However, one day my cat was bitten by some street dogs, and I started crying. I even paid for her treatment myself. Since that incident, we have been extra protective of our cats.If you are wondering about their names, the first one is called Putali, and the second is Chameli. Cats are my favorite animals because they are furry and adorable. Whenever I feel sad or low, spending time with my cats makes me feel better.My cousins and friends from the neighborhood are also fond of my cats and often come over to play with them. One fun fact about us is that we used to race around the house together. Putali, Chameli, and I are growing up side by side, and having them around brings me so much joy.You may not believe it, but I feel like I can have conversations with my cats because of our deep bond. I understand what they want and why they make certain noises. Although my cats are cute, they can also be quite mischievous, peeing in my bedroom, scratching my football, and sometimes even running away from home.

Book Review: Like the Flowing River

Priyasha Pant

Book Review: Like the Flowing RiverLike the Flowing River is a collection of short stories, reflections, and personal experienceswritten by Paulo Coelho. Unlike most books, it does not have one main story from beginning toend. Instead, each chapter contains a different lesson about life, human nature, dreams,courage, relationships, and personal growth. The author uses simple events and experiences toteach important life lessons. Some chapters are funny, some are emotional, and others makereaders think deeply about their own lives.One reason I enjoyed this book is that every chapter is different. The stories are short and easyto read, but they still contain meaningful messages. The author shares his thoughts abouteveryday situations and shows how even small experiences can teach valuable lessons. Whilereading the book, I felt that Paulo Coelho was encouraging readers to look at life from a differentperspective and appreciate things that are often ignored.There were several chapters that I especially liked. One of them was "The Intelligent Clerk." Iliked this chapter because it teaches that intelligence is not always related to a person's job,wealth, or social status. The clerk appears to be an ordinary person, but he proves to be wiserthan many others. The chapter shows that people should not be judged by their appearance orposition in society.Another chapter I enjoyed was "The Third Passion." This chapter explains the importance ofpassion in life. It shows that passion gives people motivation and helps them achieve theirgoals. I liked this chapter because it encourages readers to follow their interests and work hardfor their dreams.I also liked "The Catholic and the Muslim." This chapter teaches an important lesson aboutrespect and understanding between people of different religions and backgrounds. It shows thateven though people may have different beliefs, they can still live together peacefully and learnfrom one another. I think this message is very important in today's world.Another enjoyable chapter was "Alone on the Road." This chapter explains that everyone hastheir own journey in life. Sometimes people must face challenges on their own and make difficultdecisions. I liked this chapter because it teaches courage, independence, and self-confidence. Itreminds readers that challenges can help them grow stronger and wiser.The author of this book, Paulo Coelho, was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on August 24, 1947.From a young age, he dreamed of becoming a writer, but his parents wanted him to choose adifferent career. Despite many difficulties, he continued to follow his passion for literature.Before becoming a famous author, he worked as a journalist, songwriter, actor, and theatredirector. His first published book was Hell Archives in 1982. Although it was not very successful,he did not give up. Later, he wrote The Alchemist, which became one of the most popular booksin the world and made him internationally famous.Overall, I think Like the Flowing River is an interesting book with many different stories and lifelessons. I liked how each chapter talks about a different topic and gives readers something tothink about. Some chapters were very meaningful and easy to relate to, while others were a littledifficult for me to understand or were too short.What I liked most about the book was that it made me see everyday situations in a different way.The author shares his thoughts and experiences, which helped me learn new lessons about life,courage, and human relationships. However, because the book does not have one main story,there were times when I lost interest and wanted more details in some chapters.I would give this book a 3 out of 5. Even though I did not enjoy every chapter equally, I still learned many valuable lessons from it. I think this book is suitable for readers who enjoy shortstories and reflections about life rather than long novels with one main plot.

मेरो मामाघर

Yuvan Chandra Shrestha

मेरो मामाघरमलाई मेरो मामाघर धेरै मन पर्छ। मेरा दुईजना मामाहरू हुनुहुन्छ साथै मेरा दुईजना दाइहरू पनि हुनुहुन्छ। हजुरबुबा र हजुरआमाले मलाई धेरै माया गर्नुहुन्छ। म बिदाको समयमा धापाखेलमा रहेको मामाघर जान्छु। त्यहाँ गएर म दाइहरूसँग खेल्छु र टिभी पनि हेर्छु। हामी सबै मिलेर धेरै रमाइलो गर्छौँ। मामाघरमा बस्दा मलाई निकै आनन्द लाग्छ तर कहिलेकाहीँ घरको याद पनि आउँछ। त्यसैले मेरो मामाघर मेरो लागि धेरै प्यारो ठाउँ हो।

Bhaktapur Durbar Square

Ashwith Acharya

Bhaktapur Durbar SquareIt was Sunday, 6th April 2025. My sister, my parents, and I decided to visit Bhaktapur Durbar Square. According to my father, it is one of the most important historical sites in our country and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, attracting many local and international tourists.We were very excited because none of us had visited the place before. We chose to travel by public bus so that we could experience what it feels like compared to using our personal car. The bus was extremely crowded, and it was quite difficult to get a seat while traveling from Lokanthali to Sallaghari. Despite the congestion, we finally arrived and took our first steps through the gate of Bhaktapur Durbar Square.Inside, there were many shops displaying Nepali culture, selling souvenirs that tourists often buy as memories of Nepal. The weather was sunny, and we craved ice cream. We explored numerous temples and palaces, and when we felt tired, we sat down to enjoy our ice cream while admiring the beautiful surroundings. Many tourists were visiting the area, and we took several photos. During this time, we noticed a tourist sketching a stunning picture of the Durbar Square. The stone carvings, drawings, and temples were truly captivating.We also observed the famous 55-Window Palace, which is one of the main attractions of the square. Additionally, we visited a five-storey temple, which amazed me so much that I called my sister to admire it with me.After exploring the site, we became very hungry and decided to eat at a nearby restaurant. We enjoyed some momo and sausages. Nearby, local people were celebrating a festival, playing drums and madal, which added a lively atmosphere to our visit.As evening approached, we began our journey home. On the way, we tried locally made banana chips, which were delicious. My sister and I also had kulfi, and its rich taste is something I still remember clearly.Later, we visited a pond called Siddhi Pokhari, located along the main road. The pond has a rectangular shape and a walking trail around it. My sister and I completed a full lap around the pond. After that, we visited Rani Pokhari, where we fed the fish and had a lot of fun.By then, my legs were aching from all the walking. Finally, we took a bus and reached home late in the evening, tired but filled with wonderful memories of the day.
