 While I'm not sure if you are serious or not, UFO sightings could be attributed to almost anything. In today's world, it is more of a case of mistaken identity (with military weaponry). 

However, there are people who yearn to really find out if there are other planets that have lifeforms. It is not just an imaginary situation, rather, very much like a science. UFO's give these people a really bad name because of the ridiculous stories about them.

The first step to pondering over the possibility of existence of 'other' beings is to realize the scale of insignificance we (our planet) holds in the vast enormity that is the universe. For many can't even begin to fathom really how big the universe is because ever since birth we define big in comparision to what is around us; a car, a stadium, an entire country. And we have not had the experience of comprehending the enornimity of numbers greater than a few thousands. 

Once you cut yourself from these 'earthly' restraints and truly try to gauge HOW BIG everything else is, then you begin to see that what we know today is hilariously insignificant. Even the most powerful man to ever have lived his entire life in confidence of his beliefs, his knowledge is literally nothing in front of what remains to be uncovered. Your father, his father, your bully friend, your professor, me, you; the combined knowledge of each and every human who ever existed would still be insignificantly small when compared to what is out there. I say this not as a discouragement, but rather to encourage you to acknowledge that WE dont know anything. Because once you convince yourself you know everything, then you dont have the drive to know more, because you already think you know everything. And that my friends, is the sad state that the world we are living in, is. People who claim to know it all. Which offcourse, is utter bull shit.

And we call that real. We abide by the ludicrous promises of our politicians, believing their word, their intentions, when time and again those politicians, have in the past, consistently broken all their promises, yet we keep re-electing these fckers. Why? Because even if they are corrupt to their bones, they know how to run the country better than you or I? That's what they claim to know, but looking at the records, its utter bull shit. 

At the same time they'll call you crazy if you point up towards the sky and wonder what else is out there. The sky, part of the universe, which is a frightengly much more accurate 'science' than their construed promises. You would rather believe in them than on what's real. 

I hope you all base your beliefs on your inner voice of reason and not on the fear of ridicule for your opinion. Because as I see it, in Nepal, or Nepali society, this fear is getting bigger. It will consume you if you let it. This fear by itself doesn't do anything, rather it makes YOU do the work of destroying your outlook. 

Maybe krishna_dai is the first Nepali person to encounter a UFO after all ;) 

But we will never know!

Thanks for reading
