KHOKANA VISIT ON 12TH

KHOKANA VISIT ON 12TH
 One of my mentor Chemi Dorje Lama planned a small walk to khokana. Me along with my some of the brothers and sister participated on the walk. We started our walk by some motor bike ride . We first went to Bhungamati . The lights were pretty much boring so we headed towards khokana. Khokana , which is in lalitpur ,was awsome .It was my first visit there and people & nature of Khokana attracted me more .  Here are some of the pictures:

But "POVERTY" for too many .

Our world is one of terrible contradictions. Plenty of food, but one billion people go hungry. Lavish lifestyles for a few, but poverty for too many others. Huge advances in medicine while mothers die every day in childbirth, and children die every day from drinking dirty water. Billions spent on weapons to kill people instead of keeping them safe.
