Moin Uddin
Radha Poudel, A Global Peace Campaigner
Do you know who she is and why she touched my hand with compassion?
She is not only a woman; she is more than what she is.
She is power. She is Hope. She is an Inspiration. She is a
change-maker. She is a Dream. She is an Aspiration. She is a smile.
She is the author of Khalangaa ma Hamala – Radha Poudel,
she'll be receiving a Prestigious Madan Purashkar on 26th September 2014,
Friday –for her book which she unintentionally wrote, however never thought of
winning the coveted award. A true inspiring and motivating women and it was an
immense please to listen to her words.
After the program, I went and asked her, Didi, can I ask you
a question and she said, "Please" and came by side and I asked her,
what is one such word that keeps you moving? Though she shared many stories in
a few minutes, however in every statement it was a change..A positive
change....
And I asked her the final question, Dd, what do you expect
from us, what can we contribute?... As soon as she heard, she saw my face with
an immense gratification and she smiled and touched my hand with compassion and
said quickly, why didn't you asked this question early when there were many
people, as this was the question that I wanted to answer." and I said,
it's never late and she said,"the
perspective of seeing Nepal is totally different, we need to change it. It is
not a choice to be born in Nepal or in any other places.There is an immense
possibility in our country Nepal; I wish no any Nepali leave the country to
work. instead they should stay here, and contribute in any other form, yes,
it's not necessary to stay here in Kathmandu, just move around, go to Jumla or any
other remote places.... there still is the need of a quality education, go
there and share the knowing.....promote anything which is beneficial to the society.
Her only plan and main agenda and inspiration that keeps her
moving these days is the campaign with the high aim in mind and spirit …she is struggling
to make it happen all over the world .i.e. "Global Peace Campaign. People
have understood peace in a different way."
And as she said that, I asked her another question and that
was my final unofficial last question, Dd what is peace according to you? And
she said,"The absence of war is not Peace. For me peace is something,
where people don't have to live in hunger, in strike and in protest. We need safer
schools and also we should be able to live freely without any sort of fear, so
peace is a freedom for me."
And someone called her, she got busy and said the driver had came to receive her, so it was
a departure time, she saw me with the jovial eyes where I felt that she is my won
sister and I am her own brother. She thanked me and we bid a bye......
Life is really beautiful – with good people around and having
to share, listen and to see the lives of other getting prosper is what Radha dd
want and I also wish the same for every human being.
Yes change is the need of an hour and we should get the
freedom to live happily. I support for Equality :)
