Such Indigenous knowledge are the tacit knowledge available on our society but it seems that they are not fully transferred to further generations. Hence, it is need of time to to regain indigenous know how knowledge and transfer to the future generations so that the indigenous knowledge would not vanished. 

We lacks on knowledge transfer where school are only considered as the knowledge management and knowledge transfer institution. But in reality every one is a knowledge bank where authenticity and validity of so called intellectual society is not needed.

Solid Waste Management in Dakshinkali Municipality

Solid Waste Management (SWM) is a burning issue not only in Nepal but with in the world. 

For proper SWM there is equal responsibility of each & every stakeholders from production to consumption level .

A proper research & data is needed to figure out the waste production and it's proper management.

Consumer behaviour play a vital role for waste production and it's management. 

Currently , Dakshinkali Municipality is also facing a problem of SWM in place like pharping where density is high. 

To make SWM sustainable , a work is need to be done from ground level not only from adminstrative and management level.

We all are eqally responsible of waste creation starting from buying the product until we care for it's proper disposal. 

As there is a quote that Everybody's responsibility is no-one responsibility.This should not be happen. 

Buyer habit is directly associated with waste creation. So, Until & unless the swift of consumer habit for less waste production and goods with less waste creation. SWM could not be done. 

Responsible Buyer and Responsible Tourism is only the sustainable solution of SWM. 

If proper policies , plans , regulation and action could not be launched, the problem may suffers all of us in coming future.

 Dhime and Dhime Dance

Dhime is a newari typical and traditional newari drum where right side is beaten by stick with round and circular head called Nasakathi and left side is beaten by hand. The left side produces a sound of kha, ghya whereas the right side produces sound of ta, na etc . when both sides is beaten it produces a sound of dhaa.

A circular disk-shaped made up of metal called Bhusya is also played to guide a dhime. A dhime has a rhythm which has to be memorised to play it well.

Nityanath is worshipped to play it well and Newari rituals are performed to transfer the knowledge.

Similarly, Dhime dance includes typical movements of hands and body which go with the flow of music. The movement of hand and body is synchronized with the rhythm and music of Dhime.

Newari authentic custom-like Daura Surawal Topi for male and Hakupatasi with ornaments for female adds beauty while performing this intangible culture.

Nowadays A Culture seems to be revived. People are enjoyed being in their own traditional dress, eating their own food, playing their own music and musical instruments, and fulfilling their own rituals.

Thanks to our ancestors for creating, discovering and transferring such a great intangible value to our culture.

Pharping is on the path to conserve and preserve both tangible and intangible Cultue since it has been a cultural melting pot during the ancient times. - Amrit Shrestha Thanking Diya Maharzan to provide me video clips which energize me to edit and write few words about it.

सफलता पैसाले किनिने होइन ।

सफलता पैसाले किनिने होइन । मलाई आज

पनि भन्छन्, पैसाविना केही हासिल हुदैन, थुक्न

मनलाग्छ उनीहरूको संकिर्ण बिचारमाथी ।

इतिहास साक्षि छ, विश्वलाई यती उन्नत

गरिबहरूले नै बनाएका हुन् । गरिबले केही गर्न

सक्दैन भन्न सिर्फ भ्रम मात्र हो ।

संसारका संसारका लोकप्रिय कलाकार

चार्ली च्याप्लिन गुजारा चलाउन भिख माग्थे ।

हेनरिक इब्सन आफ्नै लुगा बेचेर बेलुकिको छाक

टार्थिन् । मोजार्ट त्यो कठोर

जाडोमा आगो बाल्ने दाउरा किन्न सक्दैनथे ।

स्टिभ जब्सले पेटभरी खान सार्वजनिक

भोजनको दिन कुर्नुपर्थ्यो । अब्दुल कलाम दई

पैसा कमाउन बाटोमा पत्रिका बेच्थे । म्यक्सिम

गोर्की नकोर थिए । जेम्स क्यामरूनले

आफ्नो पहिलो स्क्रिप्ट जम्मा एक

डलरमा बेचेका थिए । जे के रोलिङलेसँग

ह्यारी पोर्टरको कहानी लेख्न कपी किन्ने

पैसा थिएन । एडगर एलन

पो आफ्नो श्रिमती पिडाले

तड्पिदा उनी छेउमा बसेर धुरूधुरू रून्थे

किनकी उनीसँग उपचारको गराउने पैसा थिएन ।

लियोनेल मेसी होटलको टेवल पुछ्ने वेटर थिए ।

एडिसन नाङ्ले पसलमा साग बेच्थे । विकासानन्द

होटलका चम्चा प्लेट चोर्थे । ग्राहम बेलले

फोनको आविष्कार गन्हाउने

छिडीमा गरेका थिए....

मित्र, पैसा नै सबैथोक होइन । यसले

जुत्ता किन्न सक्छ भन्दैमा शिखरमै पुर्याउछ

भन्ने होइन । यो याद राख, शिखर चुम्न साहस

चाहिन्छ, आत्मविश्वास चाहिन्छ । म

तिनीहरूहरूलाई सुझाव दिन्छु, यदि तिम्रो सफल

हुने दृढ इच्छा छ भने, पैसा छैन भनेर अडिएर

नबस । अघि बढ । तिम्रो सफलतालाई कसैले

छेक्न सक्दैन ।
