Buddha Purnima/ Jayanti 2071

As we Nepali are very rich of Religious culture, tradition & Arts, Buddha Purnima/ Jayanti i.e. the Birth date of Lord Buddha is celebrated through out the countries with different & various local styles. Buddha is the primary figure of Peace & Non Violence. Being a social part of the society & a peace lover, myself could not miss this particular day to go to the Buddha Stupas, Monastery & Shrines just to pay homage to the Buddha in this particular Full Moon Day.

Here are the few snaps that I managed to take during the visit to Boudha Stupa,  Kathmandu, Nepal.

Balaju 22 Dhara Park Photo Walk & Monkey Bite

These are the few monochrome shots that I took during the Balaju 22 Dhara Photo Walk.

On that particular day, when I was taking photos, I was suddenly bitten by a Monkey on my Right Thigh. On seeing at the Cut, I saw few spots of Blood. I could not clean the cut immediately & after few hours, I went to a clinic where they cleaned the cut with Betadine & I was given a T.T. injection where they were very very willing to START the FIRST dose of Rabies for Rs. 500/-.

Few friends had suggested me to get rabies vaccine ASAP. On feeling & predicting the consequences, I could not spend the whole day & even could not sleep well in the night. That’s why I rushed to Teku Hospital for further consultancy. The authority did not let me pay for the Tickets. Upon theirs’ suggestion, I waited for the Doctor till 12am. I had reached there by 9am sharp. But the Doctor did not come. Further, I came to know that the Doctor had gone to Abroad. Soon after that, I was called by an Officer there & asked me abt. the problem.

After understanding my versions, he told me that they have not given any rabies vaccine to anyone till date who got bitten by the monkey. He just convinced me that nothing will be happened just have faith upon myself. BTW, I had already read few stuffs abt. Monkey bite where they have stated that 92% or rabies has only been transmitted by the DOG. Actually, we had a nice & positive discussions abt. the monkey bite & its’ impact & effects to our feelings. Now, I again want to say that, I was very much scared by some of my friends’ Forceful Suggestion for taking the rabies vaccine as they suggested me so without ANY-IDEA-KNOWLEDGE. They just took my BREATH AWAY.
