I do not agree with Rabindra Mishra on his comment about Karna Shakya plagiarizing. Where is plagiarism? Has Mishra cited the paragraphs from Soch to show those were copied from the book by Peale. Mr. Mishra has to show those things first to prove that it was a plagiarism. Can Mr. Mishra show that to us, Being of his status and product of Nepal Press Institute he should know he needs to show the fact. Where are the facts?

Just because Mr. Shakya said to Mr. Mishra he is influenced by or he believes in "power of positing thinking" he can not come to conclusion that Mr. Shakya was talking about Mr. Peale. There are thousands of writers on positive thinking and several prominent one before Mr. peale like Swet Marden, James Allen etc.

Power of positive thinking has been quite used phrase and will be found in almost all those thousands of self improvement books many before Mr. peale and many after him, So every body who writes about or titles an essay "power of positive thinking" should give credit to Mr. Peale? I do not think so.
