Namaste friends! Whichever country one lives in, racialism is a very sensitive issue. But we all know that all races are made up of good guys and bad guys. Personally, I too have a vendatta against Bauns but having had a bad experience with one, it would be wrong to brandish the entire clan. Someone mentioned Hilter...can we condemn all Germans for giving the world Hitler; all Japanese for wiping out Pearl Harbour; all Americans for total destruction of Hiroshima & Nagasaki; the Muslims for terrorism; the Christians for global conversion; the Hindus for tolerance! Ahh! That's the magic word. TOLERANCE! RACIAL TOLERANCE! All five fingers are not the same. So, why does the thumb stick out like a sore thumb? Shall we cut it off? Try living life minus the thumb(s). Same scenario here in Nepal. Bauns - its a love/hate relationship. Sajha's vision is "Bringing together Nepali communities". No specific community was excluded. So, why do the Members slice each other's hearts with painful words? You cannot change the past. But its people (intelligent people) like you and you and you, who will change Nepal's future. So, are we going to bicker around about which finger should be discarded? Oh, come on people, have a heart. Like it or not, Nepal was and will always be a multi-ethnic country. Let's not plant seeds of hatred because its fruits will poison the very earth you claim to be born in. If you cannot live in peace and harmony, then its better to remain silent. Let's not fight like the proverbial "cats & dogs". I believe as educated humans, we can do a better job than our forefathers and current govt. administrators. Its very easy to point fingers but try getting a job done. How many of us have the tenacity to carry out socio-economic strategies to help bring up the living standards of the common Nepali. Less talk and more action, please! God bless you.
