Welcome- Bikram Sambat- 2067 &    Nepalese cultural Eulog

       - By Dirgharaj Prasai

Bikram Sambat, Nepal Sambat and Saka Sambats is the asset of history. Bikram Sambat was started from the beginning of Licchivi period in Nepal- by the first powerful King Bikramaditya before 2067
years ago.  The Shaka Sambat  was started by King Kaniska in India from 78 AD and it was gradually lost during the Mughal and the British Empire in India, but Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru restarted it in 1957.  But as it had only 354 days in a year, it was not practical and AD (English Sambat) was started in India. Nepal Sambat is born in Nepal and during the Malla Period- at BS 936; it was prevalent in Tibet, Bengal and several neighboring countries. It was also in use during Prithavi Narayan Shah and the Rana period. But due to inconvenience in changes in tithi (date), Chandra Shamsher started to write only on Date the present Bikram Sambat.

 The Bikram Sambat proved chronically because it contained 365 days in a year in contrast of 354 days in the Nepal Sambat and Saka Sambat. Many historians have studied about its proponent Sambats. The Himabatkhand-Nepal covers the land of Brahmaputra in the east, Hindukush in the west, Kailash-Mansarovar in the north and the Ganga-River in the south. In the past, Nepal was bigger than what it is today. This region is the origin of the Vedas, Upanishads, Purans and Nitishastra. As the region has been irrigated by rivers originating in the Himalaya, several Saints, Sages and renowned Kings. The Bikram Sambat is an original and sign of Nepalese sovereignty where the foreigners could not attack here like India, China and Pakistan . The history always follows the real events, evidence, writings, chronology the hearsay also must be trustworthy. The Bikram Sambat is a glorious asset of Nepal. On the auspicious occasion of NewYear-2067-(just 14th Apr.-2010) there must be reinstated the monarchy (the pillar & guardian of Nepalese nationality) and Hindu Kingdom. So, we should regard the value and originality of Nepalese cultural tradition, including the Bikram Sambat.

 On the occasion of New year- let's hit on the head of the traitors (Khando)- Swasti Shree, Shree, Shree, Shree Shree Gagan Giriraj Chakra Chudamani NaraNarayanetyadi Bibidh Birudawali Birajman Manannot (popular-supreme) Shree Shree Shree 5 His Majesty Nepal Government. Great King Prithvi Narayan Shah walked for victory of Nepal. Those who accompanied the King were Rana. Magar, Gurung, Kuwar, Patha, Bohora, Aryal, Prasai, Khanal, Pandye, Bhusal, ETC.

They sharpened the arms and ammunitions. Nut ( Khukuri) swords, axe, scythe, knife, gun, canon etc were shining brilliant. The Gorkhs army-men marched with pomp and show smearing gules (red powder). The army men ranking as Captain, Lieutenants, Chapter, Kharidar, Sidebar, Jamdar and Hawaldar, Gowaldar and peons with bands and trumpets along with horses and elephants.

Cannons, bombs exploded, treasures and palanquin were also arranged. The girls led the followers of the great King. People representing various castes and sub-castes representing different cultures established the great King Prithbinarayan Shah, on the throne Bikram Era 1825- 14th Bhadra Sunday, on the auspicious occasion.

Jayaprakash Malla (last King of Kantipur) approached Patan. Gorkhalese bagged Kantipur, Patan and Bhadgaon. The great King along with his retinue bloated with pleasure having ambitious plan and programmed of cultivating and settling the place with good message, sweet foods. There was pleasure and reward with pomp and show.

The great King prayed the almighty Lord Pashupatinath and mother Guhe-Kali for the victory. They marched the places like Bhot ( Tibet) Delhi, Kangada. They had an ambition even to conquer for annexing Lanka-Palanka. Ganga was the boundary to wash the blooded arms in Tista river with the sounds of Victory of pride the sounds were rejoins and echoing as Twak…Twak…Twak.

Thereafter in Brikram Era 1911, Primeminister Janga Bahadur Rana captured Lucknow with the bravery of Kali Top (cannons). They trembled the hearts of the enemies. The enemies turned back and surrendered to bestow the Glorious Day for great King. His Majesties Prithbinarayan, Pratapsing, Ranabahadur, Gribanyudha, Rajendra Bikram, Surendra and his grand son Prithbibikram ruled the nation till 1968. Bahadur Shah, Bhimsen Thapa, Chandra Shamsher grabbed more power.

HM Tribhuwan was ruling as a King and fighting against despotic Ranas and he was successful in establishing democratic system in Bs 2007. HM Mahendra, King Birendra and HM Gyanendra ruled the country and King Gyanendra in 2065 Bs left the Narayanhiti Palace to settle in Nagarjun for the peace and prosperity of Nepal. But, after his renunciation the Kingship, the land suffered, assassination, terrorism and ill-will among the parties the people awakened themselves and culprits began to escape. All the Nepalese and Gorkhas living in Nepal and abroad got disappointed, Nepalese people arose seeking help from Gorakhnath, they begged that Nepal should have Hindu Kingdom and monarchy, King Granendra,  praying Victory of Nepal. They wanted to hit the head of the traitors with the sound that echoes. Twak…. Twak… Twak.  Jaya Gorakhnath! ! !

O, five headed Lord Pashupatinath, O, loving mother Guheshwori,

You are respected as recreating Phulchoki, Lumani, blessed Ganapati,

You are also Kala Bhairav.

You are Changu Yogini, Bhimeshori, honourable Shoyambhu,

You are Buddha of Lumbini.

Remembering and worshiping Muktinath, Goshaikunda,

Kailash-Manasharobar, Gokarna, Pindeshore, we pray.

Richest of the world Dakshinkali and Budhanilkantha of Sivapuri,

Bagalamukhi, Bankali, Batsala, Basuki, Jalapa and Kankeshori.

Valiant Gorkhas march forward to abolish the enemies of the nation.

Sagarmatha, Kumbhakarna, Kanchanjangha and the like high mountains like Annapura Himalayas.

Rivers like Karnali, Gandaki, Koshi and holy land like Barahachhetra, Pathibhara, Malika and Nardevi, Kamala and four mouthed Ganesh.

Let justice and livelihood of the people be forged.
