On one side of the coin, we can say that 'too many cooks spoil the soup'. And on the other side of the coin, we must learn to see the 'unity in diversity'. There's so many things simultaneously going on in Nepal that one does not know where to start, leave alone how to start. I'm sure there are many people out there, Nepali or otherwise who have been doing something or other, in one way or another, to correct the situation in this beautiful country.

Let's forget the idea of praying for a Super Hero to save the nation. The only way to save Nepal is to have thousands of Super Heroes. In the ancient days of Krishna, Rama and Ravana and others, the battle for good over evil was one against one. But in today's Kali Yug, there are thousands of people wearing the cloak of Ravana, penetrating the blood veins of innocent people. So, praying to the Gods for one mighty Super Hero is like looking for a needle in the haystack.

Today's Super Heroes are made from ordinary clay. People like you... and you... and you. If we can seriously come together, work together and stay together, miracles will happen. Changes in education, health, economics, technology, spirituality, engineering etc etc will all be made possible if we put our individual resources together.

The only way to build a huge mansion with many rooms, is to build it brick by brick. And so, if all of us in Sajha think that we can do something, however insignificant it may be, I strongly vote that we should start doing it. For a start, let's list down our names and what we are good at, however simple the task may be. From there, we can divide the group into different categories that can look into the various aspects like mentioned above...education, health etc. Once the groups have been identified, then we can start to allocate tasks like identifying areas in Nepal that need immediate help.

Remember, once you make up your mind to do something, you can do it. One step at a time....
