Amazing, Your comments are so confusing; it is hard for me to find out what you are trying to say. You praise Narayan, and then you say he slept with women. This is a classic case: why do I care if he slept with a hundred women as long as those women don't come out complaining and accusing him of raping? This is just 'rumor' for me so far anyway. Actually, I am getting slightly jealous of pundit bro now. Oh, how I wish I had his fate, rather than whiling away my time alone with calculus here. I didn't say Durga was bitch because she has some funny sex life. I don't know her life, and I assume she is loyal to her husband. I said she is bitch because of her role -- including crashing a foreign embassy if it is true-- as a minister for Gyane. Meera: I am using my nickname here, but believe me if you can, I have donated my own hard earned money in my neighborhood, and in a few villages in a mountainous district. The reason why I have to invoke my parent's generosity is because I am still a student. I also have given $2000.00 to establish a scholarship for madhesi/tharu/dalit students in my highschool. That was what I could do with my money. In fact, those who studied undergrad or highschool in Nepal and ended up doing grad or undergrad work in top schools in USA DOES have moral obligation to give back to Nepal. I mean we got almost free undergraduate education in Nepal, and my grad student colleagues here are carrying a lot of loans from their undergrad study here. I was lucky I got undergrad education for (almost) free, but I know that other people in Nepal have sacrificed so that I could get that education. If Durga hadn't given back, that would have been a case of being ingrate. Giving back was an obligation. Now, by siding with the king who takes away almost a billion rupees everyyear while our people are dying without health post in remote district, she has taken away more than she has ever given back.
