From Sikkim Happy New Year to all

By himalayanreview
New Year and everyone remembers collecting New Year cards for their loved ones. In my case it is a different story, I do not recall when did I last received my new year card. Could be four years..or five years back or before...I believe over the years my loved ones had found it difficult to contact me so I better give my address to them.
Shital Pradhan C/O Ganga Niwas Shantinagar, Singtam Sikkim-737134 India
I hope to expect at least a few cards and I wish to thank my friends in advance... Sikkim is better known for its scenic and unparalleled beauty. We the people of Sikkim believe in peace and harmony. So, for the entire world spread the message

 
"Tourism for world peace"
and HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

The formation and consolidation of this national culture have required the expunging of uncomfortable facts and stories that might raise ambiguities and questions. While the selection of what and who is and is not acknowledged to exist (or at least exist in historically important ways) in official Nepali history is complex, social scientists have begun to provide more comprehensive historical accounts of the past through oral histories and re-readings of historical documents. Such accounts reveal how ordinary people lived in the past, and offer ways to think through how ‘history’ is crafted, shaped and managed in order to reflect ‘the reality’ best suited to the status quo, ...

Sikkim Mahinda Thero: A national hero of Sri Lanka

I collected philatelic items on Buddhism, but I never understood who he was talking about. He told me, as I was from Sikkim, I might be interested to know more about the person, and he went on to add it was Sikkim Mahinda Thero, a Buddhist monk who is regarded as a national hero, a famous poet in the Sinhalese language whose poetry promoted patriotism and the revival of Buddhism to this part of the Island. He promised to send me the stamp of S Mahinda Thero from Colombo through the mail, but I have never heard from him since then.
