I Am Not The Only Traveler

I Am Not The Only Traveler

I am not the only traveler,
Who gets lost in a world brimful of sights unseen.
I search for the winding path anew
To see the world unfold.

I am not the only traveler,
Who sees the world this way.
There is a place---
Where I bring my mind into the state of calm.

I am not the only traveler,
Who wanders in the kingdom of great unknown.
I make my way on my own two feet to a place,
Where I release my mind from its grasping.

I am not the only traveler,
Who leaves home for the open air.
I follow my young heart to a place,
Where I loosen up my mind into the true nature of mind.

I am not the only traveler,
Who brings the scattered mind mind back home.
Then, I realize, how much I enjoyed being present at there
With a good heart and forever will be.

Rolwaling Valley Trek

Aspiring climbers, seeking adventures and opportunities to test their strength and skill, attempt to penetrate the Himalayan wilderness and push their limits to reach the summits. However, the grandest excursion of all to be made hereabouts is to the heart of the Himalayas, covered with icy crowns. Those towering peaks laden with glaciers that are terribly roughened and interrupted by crevasses and ice cliffs are very high, which render comparisons with our own height meaningless. Only good climbers should attempt to gain the summit, led by a sherpa of proven nerve and endurance. Well-established mountain, forest, and river trails wind down the mighty Tamakoshi River to the place where our trek was for, Rolwaling Valley. © Bikesh Deshar Rolwaling, a remote mountain valley at an altitude of 4000 meters, lies northeast of Kathmandu, near the Tibetan border and to the west of the Khumbu region. The Rolwaling Valley in the Gaurisankar Conservation Area stands as a tribute to the maje...

Soloing Manaslu, The Beast

Manaslu, it's beauty and desolation with the blessings and dangers to test the endurance and skills of adventurous climbers; but far better than climbing the killer mountain of the world, is going around its warm, fertile base, enjoying it's bounties like a bee circling around a bank of flowers. The distance is about a hundred miles and so, and will take some of the time, we hear so much about- a week or two- but the benefits will compensate for any number of weeks. Perhaps the profession of doing good may be full, everybody should be kind at least to himself. Take a good course of water and air, and in the eternal youth of Nature, you may renew your own. Go quietly, alone; no harm will befall you. Some have strange, morbid fears as soon as they find themselves with Nature, even in the kindest and wildest of her solitudes, like very sick children afraid of their mother—as if God were dead and the devil were king. Day 1. With the feeling of being into the wild nature for a while...

रारा राष्ट्रिय निकुञ्जको जीवन्त यात्रा: स्वच्छन्दताको खोजीमा

प्रसङ्ग नेपालको! नेपाल—एक अद्भुत, अनन्त बगैंचा—जसको अन्त्य न समयले पाउँछ, न यात्रुको पाइला थाक्छ। यति विशाल, यति रहस्यमयी, कि आदि कालखण्डका यात्रुहरूले पनि यसको सम्पूर्ण सौन्दर्य देख्न सक्दैनन्। प्रत्येक मोडमा, प्रत्येक कुना-कन्दरामा, प्रकृतिले आफ्नो चमत्कारहरू सजाएकाे छ। यस्तै एक स्वर्गीय सौन्दर्य हो—रारा ताल। निलो आकाशले निहारिरहेको, पहाडले अंकमाल गरेको, र मनले कहिल्यै बिर्सन नसक्ने विशाल जलकुन्ड, जसले आत्मालाई बोलाउँछ—शान्तिको गहिराइमा डुब्न। हरेक वर्ष म एउटा वा दुइटा ट्रेकिङ गर्छु। हाइकिङ भने महीनामा दुई ओटा गर्छु। नेपालको सौन्दर्यलाई साँच्चै कदर गर्ने हो भने, पैदल यात्रा नै उत्तम माध्यम हो। त्यो अनुभव यति गहिरो हुन्छ कि शब्दले बयान गर्न कठिन पर्छ। तर २०८१ साललाई विदाई गर्न यो पटक पैदल यात्रा होइन, A Road Trip to Rara National Park को योजना बन्यो। आखिर, सबै कुरा अनुभव नै त हो—हरेक यात्रा, हरेक मोड केही न केही सिकाइ लिएर आउँछ। रारा ताल जति स्वर्गीय छ, त्यहाँ पुग्न भने त्यति सहज छैन। यात्राको चौथो दिनमा मात्र हामीले त्यो अनुपम सौन्दर्य आफ्नै आँखाले अवलोकन गर्ने सौभाग्य प्राप्त गर्‍यौ...
