We can talk ideal principles but we can't live ideal life, neither we can tolerate as budhdha did with the racist slurr and hate. The truth in nepalese society is that we do have the racist hatred rooted very deep and that is not easy to wash out away or simply forget them. I have noticed in countless no. of threads, discussion forums, face-to-face debates, articles etc. that a certain no. of non-newar want to prove that newars are very racist, newars discriminate non-newars, newars do not tolerate non-newars and so on. They come with some examples which ultimately turns to be nothing, the one like hulaki presented above (OK, Mr, hulaki, how much your money was taken and was not paid off? do you have any proof with you? just don't try to say you were cheated by newars. One can produce tonnes of blame with anonymous name if s/he need no proof. So, such a vague blame is worthless and total bullsheet). To tell the truth, such a constant attack against newars has made newars more aggressive and distrustful against non-newars these days more than any time in the history. Also, that has impacted to build stronger bond between newars, which could lead to naji or jews' bond in near future. Yet, newars are loyal to all, flexible and soft-liners compared to any other race or community in Nepal. These bastard newar-haters want newars to behave like madeshi forum people or kirat ultra-rightist, who demand their own territory and who dreams wiping out others from the area of their majority population. But, newars will never go for that, and perhaps the newar-haters understand that fact too. Thats why the newar-haters maliciously use phrases like "neither fish nor meat", "can't be trusted" etc. to blame against newars. So, I argue, ultra newar-haters, who put their all effort against newars, are the main culprit to deepen the racial / communal divide, which is already in worse condition in Nepal. It has been proved in time and again that unless we succeed to discourage such ultra newar-haters, we won't be able to preventing such a racial fuss to upraise . ********************************************* rahulvai says: समाज मा सबै को भूमिका हुन्छ। ------- Newar community has recognized this fact for centuries. I have argued several times that Kathmandu valley was USA of 21st century back in 15-16th century in Asia. People from all corners of the Indian subcontinent were brought there and got environment to co-exist by maintaining their identity and their own culture. The valley was a melting pot, that recognized the contribution of people from all race and cultural background. For example, newar-muslims speak newari, they are still able to practice their own muslim culture even after being detached with their original muslim habitat for several century. Every sub-group in newars do have roots from different places which they still have preserved in various ways such as are reflected in Diupuja. What does this all tell about? It simply tells, "newars don't need lession of co-existence and mutual co-operation by any non-newar, but non-newars need to learn how to respect others and produce conducive environment for co-existence, such that there won't be discrimination in the society". Newars knew it already in the past and they are raised through that process to build their knowledge and culture to the par excellence, which are still the only pride of nepalese people to show up before the rest of the world. So, I strongly argue - if you want to make nepal better than now, you must discourage all sort of newar-hating people who are trying to force newars to be ultra-racist. Remind you, newars have a culture of inclusive participation and building a resonance with any other culture in flexible and mutually agreeable way. Also, remind you that all non-newars do not hate newars but the ultra-racist non-newar try to provoke the kind-hearted non-newar by repeatedly saying racist proverbs like "newar ista hudaina" and so on. They try to frighten normal people to deal with a newar and gradually build a racist community. So, they are the main culprit in dividing the society to much worse direction. Whether you are a newar or not, it does not matter, but be clear you don't need to hesitate to deal with a newar believing such a stupid proverb, which has to be treated like "nappy-headed hoe" in the US. If you are a newar-hater, then keep posting bullseet in sajha or elsehwere against newars; that will not even shake a piece of androgenic hair of any newar or their progress.
