Sakyong Chisopani's weird showering of April 27/4

By himalayanreview
A man dragging his GICI sheet that had flew 
I have never seen such a shower of rain before, it was just unbelievable said Nikhil Gurung, the school captain of Sakyong Chisopani JHS rushing inside the office room. The Office room that had half an hour back conducted a school staff's meeting with the members of the School Managing Committee was all messed up. 

All of a sudden heavy showering left everyone stranded inside the school building while mother nature was at it fierce face. Within no time we were not able to hear each other, the sound of the showering was so loud and it went increasing and increasing.

From the corridor of the school office, we could faintly see 15-20 students on the other side of the distant school room made of GICI sheets making rounds at the doorsteps. The showering was so horrible that it was almost difficult for any of us (teachers) to go to that side and bring back the students to the school building. Just then we saw a GICI sheet from the house nearby the school premises fly off towards the road near us.

There was no way but for Arjun Sir to rush amid the forceful showering of the rain to the other side of the classes. When he later returned back after the rain had slowed down he told the horror faced by the students there. Many of them were crying and they all were scared of nature's fury.
 
After the rain had slowed down we too slowed down in our vehicle to our home. The irony of the natural phenomenon was that the rain had just shown its fury between Juice Factory and the Toppakhani Tunel and the most affected area was Sakyong Chisopani, incredible!

Sikkim Mahinda Thero: A national hero of Sri Lanka

By himalayanreview
Sikkim Mahinda Thero BY SHITAL PRADHAN I first heard about S Mahinda Thero in 2005 while in Kolkata when I was asked by one of the stamp dealers whether I was interested in a 20 paisa stamp of S Mahinda Thero issued by the Sri Lankan Postal Department in the early 1970s. 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. However, regarding my limited concern, it was enough to know that such a person keeps the name Sikkim with honor and pride in Sri Lanka. I had the name...

JANHA BAGCHA TEESTA RANGIT

By himalayanreview
This was a national song of Sikkim sung in the Nepali language during the monarchy system. During the merger with India, the song got banned and later re-released. Two words on the 8th para, which earlier said 'Rajah rah Rani,' were replaced with "Janmah bhumi."     This song was dedicated to the King and Queen of Sikkim. The song lyrics were penned by Sanu Lama, and the music was composed by Dushyant Lama.  The song was first sung on the birth anniversary of Chogyal Palden Thondup Namgyal on April 4, 1970, at Gangtok by Aruna Lama, Dawa Lama, and Manikamal Chettri.    JANHA BAGCHA TEESTA RANGIT,  JAHAN KANCHENDZONGA SEER   YEHI HO HAMRO DHANA KO DESH,  TAPAWAN HO PYARO SIKKIM     INTERLUDE     PHULCHAN YEHA AANGANAI MAA,  CHAAP , GURAS, SUNAKHARI   SWARGASARI SUNDAR DESH KO  HAMRO PYARO PYARO JANMAHBHUMI     JANHA BAGCHA……     BATASHLE BOKCHAA YAHA,  TATHAGAT KO AAMAR WAANI ...
