patriotism comes to most Nepali only after they leave Nepal. There's no comprehension of patriotism when they're in Nepal, if they claim it, it's usually for politics and some corrupt ,selfish reason (very doubtful). Some elders here in the US told me "Nepali is a failed nation"  when I was a newcomer. I was so mad with them. Now I say it to the new comers, I see the the blood and the anger. I'm not a patriot, no need to to tell lies anymore, was never. I just saw another thread today, saying it's Bheda Nepali following the leaders, kings, communist and what not, for the "Failed Nation" title. What exactly is the meaning of Bheda...it's so vague. Does it mean,we're so dumb that we follow the guy ahead of us and jump in the river. I've seen many educated Nepali follow the same leader back home and from overseas, running into politics, careers oriented successful, business people. The # of educated person is rising at an incredible ratio. Are we idiot, which I diagree with. I've friends who can seel you for a dime with thier smartness. If it's not education, then is it because we're poor? which I seriously doubt it.

Why is there no patriotism in Nepali in Nepal? that is my question.you might disagree with me. Please feel free to come with your reason.

My answer is :it's our Values. Our values is injected with false pride, lies ,selfishness and mispriorities. No wonder we do not see the need for patriotism in Nepal.

I'm not here to offend anybody. Please feel free to come with healthy replies.
