buddha rather joins/relates nepal to india rather than separating.Remember which origin buddha came from. I think the X- factor that separates nepal from india is the indominable nepalese people which is a beautiful amalgam of various hilly races living here.

shiva_linga · Feb 29, 2012 4:09 PM

 Lots of things that separate. We:  - are less hairy  - don't pick our noses as often  - don't have third class jokes involving mother or sister  - dont shit out in open fields at 6 am.  - dont run around trees in the rain to profess our love.  - have less inter-religious tensions. hindus, buddhists, muslims and even christians living peacefully.  - have bigger balls.  - have a more varied taste in music.  - were never conquered by a foreign power.  - have better, classier, prettier women.  - can shit in the rivers and they will unknowingly drink it all.  - dont have a Bihar.  I'm sure theres lots more.

cacophonix bro, i dont  agree with most of  the points you said. -i ve seen hairier nepalese(if u consider peoples of terai as nepalese which they are) -each and every human picks his nose(thats a natural defense mechanism in our body and we all clear them time and again) -to hear 3rd class jokes involving mothers and sisters plz go to pokhara and u ll know it for good:P -shitting in open fields(OK, do u know how many nepalese families in nepal dont have a tiolet?) -run around trees to profess our love(i would suggest you to watch some new nepali film trailers on YT) -wellfor religious tensions,there have already been some in nepalgunj and birgunj;more are to come coz we ve come as religious communities a lot later together than indians) -concerning our balls(if u mean courage ,its not like the british times in 18th century, martial races dont exist) ani if u really mean testes, i ve not got the chance to compare mine with an indians -taste in  music(our non-filmi music scenario  is better i must say) -about being conquered( well almost,had the british been in better economical and military position in the times of anglo-nepal war,they would have invaded the fertile plains and the lower hilly range rather than nepal being a buffer-state with the mighty chinese empire on the other side of the himalayas;ani nepal wasent as rich as india in terms of land and private property-PASHUPATI INVASION BY TUGHLAK??) -prettier women( i also find nepalese women better,but they have several  miss universe and miss world dude;and numbers matter) -Bihar(watching the whole political situation in south;i m damn sure we ll have a `'90s' bihari system in terai in this year or next) I DONT LIKE THE OPPRESSIVE; DOGMATIC  AND ARROGANT NATUREOF  INDIANS I VE COME ACROSS WITH  AND THEIR UNMORAL FOREIGN POLICY;BUT THAT DOESNT MEAN I WILL LOSE MY COOL AND CURSE THEM LIKE AN UNEDUCATED jERK. jai Nepal!

 ^^ - don't have third class jokes involving mother or sister but we do have a third class word..the 'M' word..ever tried breaking it down and see what comes up? or should i do it for you? - dont shit out in open fields at 6 am. really?? - have less inter-religious tensions. hindus, buddhists, muslims and even christians living peacefully. instead of that we might have some level of inter-regional tensions..where sometimes a person from the hills denies that a person from plains is even a nepali.. - were never conquered by a foreign power no need for that..we experience one of the world's biggest civil wars..where we are killing our own people...i guess this is shameful enough..dont pay so much attention to what happened "once upon a time"..they got over it and see where they stand in world now..and what about us..where are we even if we didnt go through that.. -- dont have a Bihar. yes we definitely dont have a state like Bihar..which was once a disgrace of a place but realized where it was going..changes the power and now see for yourself where it stands: http://sajha.com/sajha/html/in... http://www.nepshow.com/2012/02... - are less hairy - don't pick our noses as often - dont run around trees in the rain to profess our love. - have bigger balls. - have a more varied taste in music.- have better, classier, prettier women. - can shit in the rivers and they will unknowingly drink it all. for these..i would love to have the link for that survey which led you to all these conclusions.. aru ko beijjat garera aafno ijjat badhne hoina..what do you guys try to achieve when you defame india like this? why can't you just understand they our neighbor and if will be better if we live in harmony...why cant you see their great sides..even PNS said "hami dui dhunga beech ko tarul hau"...try to understand this and understand that it will be better for us if we have a smooth relation with India.. thank you! peace!

Wow I am very proud of all you Nepalese out there who have acknowledge the reality and are respectful towards others. I would like comment on @riddle's comment "We tend to be cooler." Even I used to think that way-Nepalese dress-up better and all those bullshit. But after spending 2 years in India I realized that Indians with thier hard-working spirit gain the kind of money they desire for and propably "grooming lessons" too. Let's get united as Nepalese first .

 so much glad to see Nepalese who understand and respect India for its positive aspects..nusa has given just one example..let me enlighten you guys with tons of good things about India which might help to get over with your hatred towards her..proud to have such a great neighbor..long live Nepal-India relation!!! 38% of Doctors in America are Indians. 12% of Scientists in America are Indians. 36% of NASA employees are Indians. 34% of MICROSOFT employees are Indians 28% of IBM employees are Indians 17% of INTEL employees are Indians 13% of XEROX employees are Indians. India is the world's largest, oldest, continuous civilization. Varanasi, also known as Benares, was called "the ancient city" when Lord Buddha visited it in 500 B.C.E, and is the oldest, continuously inhabited city in the world today. India never invaded any country in her last 10000 years of history. India is the world's largest democracy. Grammar constitutes one of India's greatest contributions to Western philology. Panini, the Sanskrit grammarian, who lived between 750 and 500 BC, was the first to compose formal grammar through his Astadhyai. India invented the Number System. Zero was invented by Aryabhatta. The World's first university was established in Takshashila in 700BC. More than 10,500 students from all over the world studied more than 60 subjects. The University of Nalanda built in the 4th century BC was one of the greatest achievements of ancient India in the field of education. Sanskrit is the mother of all the European languages. Sanskrit is the most suitable language for computer software - a report in Forbes magazine, July 1987. Ayurveda is the earliest school of medicine known to humans. Charaka, the father of medicine consolidated Ayurveda 2500 years ago. Today Ayurveda is fast regaining its rightful place in our civilization. Although modern images of India often show poverty and lack of development, India was the richest country on earth until the time of British invasion in the early 17th Century. Christopher Columbus was attracted by India's wealth. The art of Navigation was bornin the river Sindh 6000 years ago. The very word Navigation is derived from the Sanskrit word NAVGATIH. The word navy is also derived from Sanskrit 'Nou'. Bhaskaracharya calculated the time taken by the earth to orbit the sun hundreds of years before the astronomer Smart. Time taken by earth to orbit the sun: (5th century) 365.258756484 days. The value of "pi" was first calculated by Budhayana, and he explained the concept of what is known as the Pythagorean Theorem. He discovered this in the 6th century long before the European mathematicians. Algebra, trigonometry and calculus came from India. Quadratic equations were by Sridharacharya in the 11th century. The largest numbers the Greeks and the Romans used were 106 whereas Hindus used numbers as big as 10**53(10 to the power of 53) with specific names as early as 5000 BCE during the Vedic period. Even today, the largest used number is Tera 10**12(10 to the power of 12). India exports software to 90 countries According to the Gemological Institute of America, up until 1896, India was the only source for diamonds to the world. USA based IEEE has proved what has been a century old suspicion in the world scientific community that the pioneer of wireless communication was Prof. Jagdish Bose and not Marconi. The earliest reservoir and dam for irrigation was built in Saurashtra. According to Saka King Rudradaman I of 150 CE a beautiful lake called 'Sudarshana' was constructed on the hills of Raivataka during Chandragupta Maurya's time. Chess (Shataranja or AshtaPada) was invented in India.. Sushruta is the father of surgery. 2600 years ago he and health scientists of his time conducted complicated surgeries like cesareans, cataract, artificial limbs, fractures, urinary stones and even plastic surgery and brain surgery. Usage of anesthesia was well known in ancient India. Over 125 surgical equipment were used. Deep knowledge of anatomy, physiology, etiology, embryology, digestion, metabolism, genetics and immunity is also found in many texts. The founder and creator of Hotmail, the world best known web based e-mail program, Sabeer Bhatia, is Indian. When many cultures were only nomadic forest dwellers over 5000 years ago, Indians established Harappan culture in Sindhu Valley (Indus Valley Civilization) The four religions born in India, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism, are followed by 25% of the world's population Islam is India's and the world's second largest religion Jews and Christians have lived continuously in India since 200 B.C.E and 52 A.D respectively. The Vishnu Temple in the city of Tirupathi built in the 10th century, is the world's largest religious pilgrimage destination, larger than either Rome or Mecca, with an average of 30,000 visitors every day giving donations to the temple of $6 million (U.S.) daily The place value system, the decimal system was developed in India in 100 BC.

 Times of India 12 Mar 2008, 0010 hrs IST,Chidanand Rajghatta,TNN WASHINGTON: It's an Internet myth that has taken on a life of its own. No matter how often you slay this phony legend, it keeps popping up again like some hydra-headed beast.  But on Monday, the Indian government itself consecrated the oft-circulated fiction as fact in Parliament, possibly laying itself open to a breach of privilege. By relaying to Rajya Sabha members (as reported in The Times of India) a host of unsubstantiated and inflated figures about Indian professionals in US, the government also made a laughing stock of itself.  The figures provided by the Minister of State for Human Resource Development Purandeshwari included claims that 38 per cent of doctors in US are Indians, as are 36 per cent of NASA scientists and 34 per cent of Microsoft employees.  There is no survey that establishes these numbers, and absent a government clarification, it appears that the figures come from a shop-worn Internet chain mail that has been in circulation for many years. Spam has finally found its way into the Indian parliament dressed up as fact.  Attempts by this correspondent over the years to authenticate the figures have shown that it is exaggerated, and even false. Both Microsoft and NASA say they don't keep an ethnic headcount. While they acknowledge that a large number of their employees are of Indian origin, it is hardly in the 30-35 per cent range.  In a 2003 interview with this correspondent, Microsoft chief Bill Gates guessed that the number of Indians in the engineering sections of the company was perhaps in the region of 20 per cent, but he thought the overall figure was not true. NASA workers say the number of Indians in the organization is in the region of 4-5 per cent, but the 36 per cent figure is pure fiction.  The number of physicians of Indian-origin in the US is a little easier to estimate. The Association of American Physicians of Indian Origin (AAPI) has 42,000 members, in addition to around 15,000 medical students and residents. There were an estimated 850,000 doctors in the US in 2004. So, conflating the figures, no more than ten per cent of the physicians in US maybe of Indian-origin – and that includes Indian-Americans – assuming not everyone is registered with AAPI.  These numbers in themselves are remarkable considering Indians constitute less than one per cent of the US population. But in its enthusiasm to spin the image of the successful global Indian to its advantage, the government appears to have milked a long-discredited spam - an effort seen by some readers as the work of a lazy bureaucrat and an inept minister.  The story has attracted withering scrutiny and criticism on the Times of India's website, with most readers across the world trashing it.  "The minister should be hauled up by the house for breach of privilege of parliament (by presenting false information based on hearsay). We Indians are undoubtedly one of the most successful ethnic groups in USA, be it in Medicine, Engineering, Entrepreneurship. BUT, that does not translate to those ridiculous numbers that have been presented....this is a circulating e-mail hoax," wrote in Soumya from USA, who said he worked at the NASA facility in Ames, California, and the number was nowhere near what was mentioned in the figures given to Parliament.  "This minister (D.Purandeshwari, Minister of State for HRD)... should be held accountable for misleading the members of parliament and the citizens of India. This just shows how illiterate and mentally defunct the current Indian govt. is," wrote Anand from Melbourne.  Purandeshwari is not the first minister to use the dubious figures in a system where politicians depend heavily on their bureaucrats to furnish facts, figures, and speeches. Former home minister L.K.Advani used the same figures in a speech some years back on a visit to Washington DC.

Wow. Way to dissect a joke fellas. Thanks for the warm responses. Don't you realize the author was probably trolling you to elicit emotional responses from you? Allow me to demonstrate: p_didi - a wordplay on pdiddy and nepali meaning of 'didi'. i wonder what the 'p' in p_didi insinuates then. OH NO! TERRIBLE THOUGHTS! And take a second to look at her beautiful smile in the profile picture. Yep. thats how she looks in real life. Totally believe that. Let us now inspect her thread title - what separates nepalis from indians?  And while having the concotions of a deep, thoughtful or philosophical debate, all that is immediately blown to bits by her own answer to the question - Buddha, sagarmatha and momos. In other words, not much!!!!!! And here we are discussing the validity of my proudly conceived jokes like we: - are less hairy - don't pick our noses as often - don't have third class jokes involving mother or sister - dont shit out in open fields at 6 am. - dont run around trees in the rain to profess our love. - have less inter-religious tensions. hindus, buddhists, muslims and even christians living peacefully. - have bigger balls. - have a more varied taste in music. - were never conquered by a foreign power. - have better, classier, prettier women. - can shit in the rivers and they will unknowingly drink it all. - dont have a Bihar.

Cacophonix · Mar 1, 2012 7:34 AM

 i dont think any of you who have been commenting here has any idea what they are talking about. by the way i am commenting here because i have lived in one of the largest city of india for several years. and i think i can comment here. i think indian looks suck, have you walked on street of mumbai or delhi and ever seen how the girls look like and compare it to the gals that walk on the street of kathmandu. you will get your answer. i dont disagree that indians make miss universe and miss world. but just few indians reach the fame doesnot mean the commoners are as good looking.  we are blessed with beautiful gals. 2/10 (2 out of 10 are goodlooking) indians vs 7/10 nepalese. yes i agree within this past 10-15 yrs we have been thru hell. but think about nepal before that. you travel in the local bus in india, all you you think about is your wallet and when it will be picked. i havent seen that in nepal. have you ever heard of daughter being killed after birth in nepal? if so how much and who does it? have you ever heard of nepali buhari being burnt alive because of dowry. if yes how much? i dont disagree the fact that there aren't worst people among us. but chamal ko bora ma 2-4 wata dhan ko biya vayo vandai ma tyeslai dhan ko bora vanna mildaina.  you may argue how educated and well established indians are in the US, just think about when did indians started to migrate to the US, and when have we started. its just recently we have large population of people migrating to the US. 20 yrs from now we can compare.  if anyone give you the stat that how much indian doctors are in the us, just tell them divide the total no of doctors by their total population and the compare with others, they will find the answer. mitra, if you have lived in india for some time you would appretiate how much liberal your country is.

The biggest difference that I have seen is that we care too much about Indians to start a thread on them. I highly doubt any Indian site would start similar thread for Nepalese. We talk about them, hate them, appreciate them...whatever; they certainly don't think about us as much as we do about them. I guess it comes with being a big brother.

Kiddo · Mar 1, 2012 8:35 AM

Eternalsunshine I agree with your 2/10 vs 7/10. in fact in india it might be 1/200 and in nepal it's more like 3/10 The reason india has more miss worlds is because of the law of large numbers. Another reason you see lot of beautiful indian girls in media is because there are only a handful of them and they all get recruited by the media as soon as they are sighted.

@eternalsunshine : Obviously due to historic reasons, India has been able to build insitituitional infrastructre in the sector of education which is of prime importance in building a nation. They have better universities than we do in Nepal. And each of the departments in these universities are populated with world-class thinkers in their domain of knowledge.
