Happy 17th Birthday to my daughter Sristikaa Pradhan (27.03.23)

Dear Bebay

Today, on your 17th birthday, I want to reach out to you and send you all the love in my heart. Although we have not seen each other for ages, my love for you has grown stronger with each passing day.

I remember the day you were born as if it were yesterday. The moment I held you in my arms, I knew you were the most precious gift life could give me. Your tiny fingers, toes, little yawns, beautiful smile, and everything about you made me feel so proud and blessed.

Over the years, even though we were apart, I followed your progress with a father's pride. Your academic achievements, simplicity, and kindness towards others filled me with joy and happiness. You are growing up to be a wonderful person, and I am so proud of you.

I wish you all the love and happiness life can bring on this special day. May you find success in all you do and never lose sight of the beautiful person you are. Always remember that I am here for you and that you are forever in my heart.

Happy 17th birthday, my dear. I may not be there to celebrate with you, but know that you are always in my thoughts and that my love for you will never fade.

With all my love, Bua

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

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...
